"In this way, let's rest for a while, and then we have a meeting. Professor Cai looked at his watch and said, "The meeting will last for another hour, and those who ask and answer questions should be well prepared." ”

The professors got up and left the venue one after another, gathering in a ball, discussing the topic just now, and inside and outside the conference room, it was suddenly like a petri dish, covered with messy colonies.

Professor Cai went out slowly, and his ears were full of all kinds of discussions about the potassium channel, and he couldn't help but secretly speak.

This is rare, and although potassium channels are the frontier and hot spot of biological research, it is like a world war, and the frontier and hot spot are not constant and not unique, so many people participate, and the discussion is quite in-depth, even during the conference.

"Yang Rui's driving ability is quite powerful. Professor Cai came to Tang Ji's side and whispered.

Tang Zhong said with a smile on his face: "Yang Rui's point is accurate, and the problem solving tends to be universal, which is very rare. ”

Similarly, to solve a problem, a specific solution may solve the problem, but it only stops at solving the problem, and the impact is limited. The pursuit of scientific research has always been to solve universal problems, hoping to solve a large number of problems by leading from point to point.

However, universal solutions to problems do not happen overnight, and some problems may take decades or even centuries to solve them universally.

Professor Cai nodded and said, "The research on potassium channels is at the forefront of the world, and this alone is very remarkable, and he is only 20 years old. ”

"Being young is an advantage in scientific research, but when you are fighting for scientific research conditions, it becomes a disadvantage. Tang concentrated to help Yang Rui speak from the side.

Professor Cai smiled and said, "We have provided as good conditions as possible, besides, Yang Rui is still a freshman this year, and we can't do too much." ”

"In some foreign universities, 20-year-old students have all studied for doctorates, and now our teaching methods are backward, so we can't punish Yang Rui for this. ”

"No one punished him. Professor Cai pretended not to understand.

Professor Tang smiled and changed his direction and said, "Our biology department's report this year is better, and the research on potassium channels has reached the world-class level and has made breakthroughs, which is unique among universities in Beijing." ”

"Tsinghua University's Department of Biology seems to have students who have published top papers, but this year, it is probably our two schools that compete. ”

"Tsinghua also has it? The current students are really amazing. Tang Zhong sighed with emotion and said: "When we just graduated from college, we went to the countryside to help farmers, and now that I think about it, it's really a waste of time." ”

Professor Cai was the principal after all, and shook his head and said, "How can it be a waste of time to help farmers." ”

"How is it not a waste of time, if I made enzyme preparations ten years earlier, and made money for the country, I don't know how many cows and how many tractors I can buy, then I really help farmers, unlike us, I still have to live in the villagers' homes, eat the villagers' homes, and get wages every month." ”

Professor Cai smiled and said nothing, and did not follow Tang to say these incorrect words.

Tang Zhong also led but did not start, and said: "Now think about it, our country's scientific research work, the start is really difficult, in fact, I went to the research institute at that time, and I am not qualified to engage in enzyme preparations, the annual funding of the whole school is so much, and there are many designated research tasks, and half of the research done in front of us is not qualified to continue to do it, we young people, what qualifications do we have to open new research, don't you say?"

"Bittersweet memories?" Professor Cai smiled.

"Sort of, our current conditions are better, we should no longer focus all our resources on old comrades like before, we must give young people opportunities, so that young people can grow up, don't you say?"

Tang Zhong was stunned for a moment, couldn't help laughing, pointed at Tang Zhong, and sighed: "You old Tang, you are really attentive to Yang Rui, what's the matter, are you ready to recruit a son-in-law?"

"If my daughter is 18 years old this year, I will immediately betrot him to this marriage. Yang Rui, this child, is really promising, let's give him a ride, what step can you do when he reaches our age? ”

"If he's not rare, that's for the best. Professor Cai couldn't help but feel nostalgic.

Ten minutes of rest, and nothing feels like it.

Yang Rui fell last, watched the others go in, and then went in and sat down.

His mood was calm.

On the one hand, he has a knowledge system that exceeds the times, and systematic learning has exposed him to all aspects of biology, and the content of potassium channels and proteins is the focus of his recent self-study.

As for the details, if it does not affect the research itself, it is actually not important, just like the professors of the Chinese department sometimes write mistakes, to the layman, it seems that they can smile, but as far as insiders are concerned, what is the big deal.

Associate Professor Wei, Professor Fu and others, who put forward their thinking at the right time, were also quite hesitant because of this.

Asking questions is also a kind of ability, even if you don't need to answer the questions yourself, you can't ask a pound of questions without the ability to ask a pound of questions.

It is not easy for a middle school student to come up with a calculus problem and write it correctly.

It's the same with biology, people in the industry who lag behind cutting-edge science, such as many middle school biology teachers, who no longer care about or have access to the latest research after graduation, maybe they can't even say the latest exclusive terms, and how to conduct Q&A.

Of course, there will be some differences in frontier fields, because there are many questions, and the subdivisions of fields are very complex, but in front of so many people, Professor Fu can't always ask a question that no one can answer.

Anyone can ask Hawking the question "Where are the aliens", but how Hawking answers has nothing to do with the level of research.

The area of discussion is also confined to death, either the problem of analyzing the structure of potassium channels or the interrelationship of proteins.

In terms of analyzing the structure of potassium channels, Yang Rui obviously has a world-class level, and the papers of top journals are not published casually.

"Yang Rui, you said that the new real room will carry out research on protein interactions, and I would like to ask a few questions in this regard. Associate Professor Wei spoke first, and he decided not to continue with the problem of potassium channels.

Associate Professor Wei himself is actually staring at the location of this new real room, and he has a lot of research ability in terms of potassium channels, but his research in this area is obviously not as in-depth as Yang Rui.

Unable to ask Yang Rui, Associate Professor Wei and others decided to start with protein.

"Yang Rui can't have studied both. This is the conclusion they came to when they discussed.

Associate Professor Wei didn't wait for Yang Rui to answer, he looked down slightly at the prompt card he had prepared just now, and said: "I want to talk about a few classic questions, the first one is this, Yang Rui, the yeast double hybrid technology you just mentioned, as we all know, producing false positive results is the most troublesome part of this technology, there are currently some new solutions, I want to hear your judgment." ”

This problem itself is not difficult, but Associate Professor Wei does not say which solutions it is, it requires Yang Rui's daily accumulation.

If Yang Rui said that he didn't understand, it was naturally not enough to understand the interaction protein, although it was a bit difficult, but this was just a side game, and it couldn't be said to be a line, after all, he had just taken a break for ten minutes, even if Associate Professor Wei and others had a discussion, this is also knowledge that popped out of other people's heads, and it is not difficult.

To talk about this knowledge alone, Yang Rui is indeed beyond his strength, but the amount of information stored in his mind is so huge, a little bit of a few monographs, Yang Rui settled down, and talked eloquently: "If you are talking about locating the interacting proteins in the nucleus and ensuring the activation of the reporter gene, I think the difficulty is that the proteins on the membrane are difficult to analyze by technical means, and perhaps there should be some improvement of the scheme......

Speaking of this, Yang Rui paused, hesitating whether he should say the improvement plan.

However, Associate Professor Wei has already flinched from listening.

In this way, everyone knows that if we continue to discuss it, it is really possible to lose my wife and lose my soldiers.

Seeing that it had just opened and that it might be cold, Professor Fu gritted his teeth, pounced, and said, "I want to talk about fusion protein affinity chromatography and how to avoid the interference of endogenous bait proteins." ”

Yang Rui listened to his question quietly, and frowned slightly: "Actually, the key is how to get enough recombinant fusion proteins to maintain protein activity."

There was soft laughter around.

Professor Fu's face turned red, he studied RNA, and his understanding of proteins was indeed not detailed enough.

At this time, Professor Wei repaired again, went back into battle, and rescued Professor Fu.

Two minutes later, Professor Wei died a heroic death again.

Another associate professor rushed forward without hesitation.

Professor Wei clenched his fists under the table and cheered himself on. The so-called suspicious goods are the buyers, and these associate professors are all people who are very interested in the new real room, and if they want to use Yang Rui as a puppet, they must first defeat him.

The associate professor who rushed forward without hesitation was defeated faster.

Fortunately, this time, Associate Professor Wu, who had worked with Professor Wei many times, was ready, and he seized Yang Rui's answer and launched a fierce offensive.

And then...... Heroic again.

Yang Rui's answer became sharper, and the impact gradually became stronger.

Professor Wei clearly felt the momentum that Yang Rui had accumulated again.

"Even if you can't defeat it, it's better to defeat it once. Professor Wei clenched his fists again, and over the next few minutes, tried to ask another question.

But his preparation this time was even worse, and Yang Rui's answer was even more understated.

Professor Wei suddenly felt very hurt.

The questions I carefully prepared were answered, which was a little uncomfortable, but if my own questions were ignored by the other party, it was sad.

As the number of injured associate professors grew, the number of questions gradually decreased.

"Even if you stop him once!" Professor Wei's fist was about to burst.

However, although he tried his best, he was reluctant to stand up and ask questions.

A few minutes later, the cold field returned.

Professor Wei's eyes were red in a hurry.

"I'd like to talk about how the gene of the protein of interest is encoded. ”

In a hurry, someone asked a question again, which made Professor Wei shout "Luckily" in his heart and look to the left sharply.

The person who asked the question was Yang Rui!

Professor Wei's expression was almost frozen?

Not only him, but the associate professors who were full of passion just now and languishing at the moment almost all had a surprised and inexplicable face.

"Didn't you say a two-way choice? I guess I could ask a question. Yang Rui pointed to his nose and asked the host, Professor Cai.

Professor Cai suddenly felt a little funny, coughed in disguise, and then said, "Of course." ”
