"So, is this invitation real?" Yang Rui compared the two invitations on the table, one was his own and the other was Professor Tang Zhong, both of which were numbered letters of introduction on a single sheet of paper, stamped with a big red seal and a steel seal. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Tang Zhong wore reading glasses and compared it again, and said: "The official seal is right, it should be true, don't look at the person when you look at the seal, if you don't feel at ease, just check it with the foreign trade of the Chinese medicine." ”

"I'm worried that I'm really mistaken, and when I ask, isn't it a chance to give them a chance to regret?" Yang Rui laughed twice and said, "I just thought, as long as the invitation is genuine, I can participate, why bother to check with them." The organizing committee of the conference is not under the management of foreign trade of Chinese medicine, so I will send the paper over at that time to see how the organizing committee of the conference will reply. ”

Yang Rui played a trick, he really cared about this international conference.

Tang Zhong smiled dumbly and said, "You're not afraid of doing useless work?"

"It's just an urgent paper to write, even if I can't give a speech at the conference, I will send it to the journal again. ”

"It's good if you think about it this way, the conference is only a few days in total, and the conference speech is difficult, and the keynote speech is probably very tight, and the mentality is a little calmer. Tang Zhong was good at persuasion, for this genius disciple, what he was most afraid of was Yang Rui's unbalanced mentality, in addition, Yang Rui's performance had surpassed any student he had ever seen.

Yang Rui smiled gently: "Regardless of whether you have the opportunity to speak or not, being able to participate in an international conference is also a qualification." ”

"Yes. Tang Zhong actually wanted to say that even if he couldn't attend an international conference, he should be calm, but such a requirement was a bit too high for a young man, and he couldn't help but think that if something bad really happened, or he could find a way to bring him in, after all, he also had an invitation letter.

However, there is a difference between being brought into an international conference and being invited to an international conference.

Scientific research is about qualifications, and later generations of Chinese scholars no longer regard international conferences or anything as qualifications, but the Chinese academic community in the 80s recognized this qualification, and this qualification is valuable.

Yang Rui published a paper for the first time, especially looking for a simple and reliable paper, because of a lack of qualifications. He can obviously make PCR papers now, but he doesn't do it because of his lack of qualifications.

For the same paper, Morris can win the Nobel Prize, but Yang Rui, a first-year student at Peking University, may not be able to write it, because Muris has at least published a paper in "Nature", and a student who has only published a paper in "JMC" cannot be considered for the Nobel Prize.

Similarly, in the 80s, countless Chinese claimed to have proved Goldbach's conjecture and then complained that they were not taken seriously by the mainstream scientific community. At the request of the executive order, the Chinese Academy of Sciences organized personnel to review the sack letters from all over the country, and found that most of the senders did not even have basic scientific literacy.

In fact, there is no need to review at all, you can guess that this is the result, and the scholars who have the ability to prove Goldbach's conjecture have a little brain, and they don't need to challenge Goldbach's conjecture first。

The so-called non-sound is already a blockbuster, first of all, it has to be the protagonist of the king of a country. In the field of mathematics, there is no tenured professor or the like, and the conditions are too difficult to engage in research.

In order to prove "1+2", Chen Jingrun wrote a book, wrote hundreds of pages of mathematical formulas, and the barefoot old farmer held back his strength and refused to publish a page of proof in advance, and then proved Goldbach's conjecture in one breath, which is too dramatic and unnecessary. The only person who can make this kind of inefficient choice is a liberal arts student who pursues character conflicts and plot ups and downs, and it is impossible to be a mathematician, and mathematicians want to scratch people when they see discontinuous numbers.

Yang Rui is reluctant to cause controversy in terms of results.

Because the evaluation results are highly influenced by subjectivity, and the paper itself is objective.

As far as the biology community in 84 years is concerned, Watson and Crick, who have constructed the DNA double helix, are simply god-like beings, and any gas released by these two people has research value.

A first-year student at a university in China may have a harder time proving himself around the world than a 40-year-old farmer.

Fortunately, this is the scientific community, and writing good papers will not necessarily be popular, and writing good papers continuously will definitely be popular.

And the more seniority you have, the more you will be recognized for a good paper.

A 20-year-old young man who publishes a paper in Nature may be called an excellent young researcher, and a 20-year-old university professor who publishes a paper in Nature may be called a famous professor.

Yang Rui can't do a doctorate at the age of 15, and he can't expect to be a professor at the age of 20, but it is still a rare opportunity to brush his face at an international conference.

If you miss it this time, the next time may be a few years away.

Even if he can publish high-level papers, he may not be invited to a biology conference held abroad, and it is always difficult to do so for the first time.

Tang Ji also felt that the opportunity was rare, and encouraged Yang Rui: "It just started school, and there is nothing to do, you can go and sort out the papers with peace of mind, and I will say hello to you from the department." Try to send the letter out as early as possible, and arrive before April 1st. ”

This is also one of the purposes of Yang Rui's coming here, and he hurriedly thanked him.

The beginning of the school year is not nothing, from the registration to the beginning of each subject, it should be the busiest time of the semester, and it is also the time when students are most needed to appear.

However, Comrade Tang Zhong may be a professor from Peking University in China, but in Peking University, he is a world-renowned bull, and it is very simple to say hello to Yang Rui.

Yang Rui took the Shang Fang sword, went back to the dormitory to find the squad leader Liu Anping, told him, and went straight to the laboratory.

Of course, he didn't go to put together the papers, he was going to complete the next phase of the experiments on the potassium channel, write a new paper, and then read it at the conference.

If there is any way to quickly gain prestige in the scientific community, speaking at a high-level international conference is the effect of prestige*2, gaining collective attention and then *2, and then killing the questioner without leaving a piece of armor, and still gaining prestige*2.

Stacked together, it's at least an effect of Fame*10.

In contrast, coenzyme Q10 is a money-making technology, but it is not necessarily suitable for academics. Of course, if Yang Rui takes out the second-generation plant extraction method, there are still many people who are willing to listen, but the style is not as good as those technologies with a wider radiation area.

The reason why PCR can win the Nobel Prize is because its application is so extensive, the police use PCR to check DNA, paleontologists build Jurassic Park to use PCR, genetics, medicine, and even divorce lawsuits use PCR.

Previous Nobel Prizes have focused on technologies that have had a wide impact, such as the Nobel Prize in Biology or Medicine in '80, which was awarded to Americans and French who "discovered the genetic basis for the regulation of immune responses on the cell surface." In '85, it was "research on the regulation of cholesterol metabolism", and in '86, it was "the discovery of growth factors......

Even in the niche scientific community, coenzyme Q10 is a niche research, and it is the means that Yang Rui chose to brush gold. Because niche research lacks competitors, it can maximize Yang Rui's profits without investing too much energy and time.

And if you want to brush up on the sense of presence, you still have to resort to the study of potassium channels.

The University of California, Berkeley is so famous, and Professor Richard can still pull down his body to compete with Yang Rui, because this is a popular study in the biology community.

Popular!Extensive!Basic!Important!

This kind of research is the focus of everyone's attention wherever it is placed, and it is a technology that wants to win awards and get soft hands.

In fact, the German Sarkoman, who was about to win the Nobel Prize in 1991, was awarded the Nobel Prize for his discovery of the function of ion channels on cell membranes. However, Sarkoman's main work was completed in 1976, and it was after he created the ion single-channel current recording technology that the widespread application of this technology allowed biologists to study the structure and function of channels in depth.

The current work of Yang Rui's Sinovel Lab also frequently uses the technology pioneered by Sarkoman. It can be said that the Nobel Prize-winning Sarcoman created a new tool, and after the emergence of this new tool, the study of various ion channels became "profitable".

It's like when the tool "electrolysis" was first invented, chemists frantically electrolyzed all the compounds they could find, and then used the isolated active elements to reduce all the oxides they could find, and finally, potassium, sodium, magnesium, aluminum and other colorful elements were discovered in a very short time......

If Yang Rui can give a new paper on ion channels at the "International Congress of Medical Bioengineering", the topicality is certainly not as good as the discovery of new elements, but it is always more popular than the new synthesis of an organic substance.

Huang Mao, Tu Xian and his wife, Wei Zhenxue and others, who had been working in the Huarui laboratory for a vacation, also understood this, and after meeting and chatting a few words, they ended the narrative and busily devoted themselves to the experiment.

Only Huang Mao, who had an overview of the overall situation, came to Yang Rui's side and explained: "Our last paper has induced fruit flies with potassium channel gene defects, and in the past month, we have frequently hatched a large number of fruit flies with gene defects, but it takes too much time to lock the cloned genes, otherwise, let's summarize a phased article and hand it to you first, so that you can take it to the meeting?"

"If you want to have material, you have to lock the clone gene, but if we can lock the clone gene, isn't it enough to analyze the molecular mechanism in a few days? Yang Rui stubbornly shook his head and asked, "Still using the trial and error method?"

"Yes. ”

"Okay, I'll join in, one more person. Yang Rui rolled up his sleeves and plunged into the experiment. At this point, I can't say I have to borrow some future papers.
