Chapter 595: Verification
"Yang Rui, someone you know" Professor Rasgul looked at Evans with a smile, thinking he was the one who came to see the item.
Evans was stunned for a moment, reacted, and said with a smile: "I was also just persuaded by him, and the paper is very good." By the way, the paper on potassium ion channels was written by him, and the cell was published in the previous issues. ”
Professor Rasgul may not remember the name of the person, but he knows it at once when he says the paper.
Of course, it can't be just any paper, it must be an influential or characteristic paper.
For those of them, although they have to read papers every day, it is impossible to see every paper. Generally speaking, hot papers will at least be understood, and cutting-edge papers will probably look at their own fields.
And the papers published in top journals at the level of CNS, they will at least understand it, this is the power of CNS. In fact, the total number of papers that can be published by CNS every year is not a lot, but compared to a subdivided field, there are very few, for example, Professor Lasguer has done molecular genetics all his life, which is only a small branch of biology.
This is like a person in a place watching a news broadcast, 30 minutes a day, more than 10 or 20 news, how many days can it be the turn of the province, how many days can it be the turn of the city, how many days can it be the turn of the county?
Yang Rui's paper published on Cell, in just a few months, the number of citations has reached hundreds, which means that hundreds of times more people have read it, and it is a new work this year, and people in this field will naturally be impressed.
Professor Rasgul was intrigued and said, "Is this his new achievement?
"If it's as perfect as he says, I think it would be a good result. After Evans finished speaking, he added: "If it can achieve fifty percent of the effect he said, I think it will be very interesting, at least, in terms of DNA probes, there will be a good application." ”
In the era of pompous pursuits, Evans obviously discounted Yang Rui's description in his heart, but despite this, he felt that it was still a recommended technique.
In any case, it is also a productivity tool that can improve efficiency.
"Oh, I haven't read ...... yet," Professor Rasgul said, picking up the file next to the instrument and reading it.
Actually, in terms of textual descriptions, PCR technology is not surprising.
However, it is a typical technology that can create and grow itself, it is not a technology that appears to solve a specific problem, but its existence provides an opportunity to solve more problems.
At this point, PCR technology is actually a lot like a computer. Computers may have appeared purely for the sake of computing, and they did not solve computing problems, but when people from all walks of life learned about computers, their role instantly expanded.
The same principle applies to the network. The network was originally designed to connect a few computers, and then to connect some military computers, but when it began to be civilianized, the energy of the IT industry exploded beyond the imagination of the founders.
Of course, compared to the whole world, computers have a wider range of applications, followed by networks.
However, in the world of biology, the revolutionary significance of PCR is no less than the emergence of computers, but the value of PCR has not been fully exerted until more geniuses understand and use it.
Professor Rasgul couldn't read the future from the text, so he read Yang Rui's paper blandly, skimmed Yang Rui's explanation again, and said with a smile: "It's quite interesting, it's a very simple principle, and no one has really done it before?"
"No, he made a point. Professor Evans thought for a moment and said, "He probably wouldn't lie about this." ”
is Yang Rui's academic reputation, without the previous "cell", he has no basis for dialogue at all, and with this cell, scholars all over the world think that Yang Rui is at least a peer who has entered the house, and their trust in him has also increased greatly.
Professor Rasgul nodded in agreement, beckoned to a student, pointed to the DNA meter on the desktop, and said, "Try this, there are instructions in it, and see the results later." ”
Xue? agreed, sat down at the experimental table, and began to flip through the explanatory text.
Instead of waiting there, Professor Rasgur and Professor Evans continued to chat, visiting Professor Rasgur's lab and discussing their work, which was also a rare opportunity for them.
Professor Rasgour is also a third-order professor - although there are only a handful of scholars of this level in China, there are quite a few in the United States, and being able to become a chair professor at Columbia University in the Ivy League is almost the level of third-order prestige.
Naturally, Professor Rasgur's molecular genetics laboratory is not small. Similar to the Chinese academic community, Professor Lassgur has been expanding his lab since he started running the lab on his own in his thirties, growing his funding from hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to millions of dollars, at least half of which is invested in the molecular genetics lab.
Today, there are more than 10 doctoral and graduate students under Professor Lassgoul's command, in addition to 6 doctoral students who cannot find jobs, commonly known as postdoctoral students, and 8 full-time researchers.
The team of nearly 30 people is already a first-class team in the academic world, and no matter how many people there are, they basically have to be divided into teams. In fact, at this scale, in addition to students, the rest of the postdoctoral fellows and full-time researchers are all in their own fields, with a total of more than 10 research groups and more than 20 projects, which is spectacular.
Although Duke University, where Professor Evans is located, is also one of the largest institutions of higher learning in the United States, the affluence of North Carolina, where Duke University is located, cannot be compared with that of New York, where Columbia University is located.
For the two of them, it was a rare enjoyment in a meeting.
In fact, it is not only they who enjoy this temporary absence, but many indigenous scholars who also enjoy it.
It is only at this kind of conference that groups of scholars have free time, and other times, you are in the local area, and the other party may be busy doing experiments.
By suppertime, Professor Rasgul's guests had swelled to five, and they took up a large part of the dining room downstairs, drinking and chatting like a small salon.
Upstairs.
The students who were caught by Professor Rasgul were seriously doing the experiments.
The conditions of the first-class laboratory are very good, and students can also get unimaginable excellent training in third world countries.
However, if you also work in a first-class laboratory, your prospects after graduation will be different.
If you can complete a CNS during your studies, then needless to say, you can still enter a first-class laboratory after graduation. If it does not reach the level of CNS, there is no problem with downgrading one level.
But if you want to downgrade two levels, then in addition to quantity, you also need to have good luck.
However, no one wants to count on good luck for the rest of their lives.
Every student who wants to get out of the top lab has to work hard and hard.
Even so, it's not easy to stand out from the good peers around you.
The student who was caught poor did not relax because of the independence of the experiment, which was an experiment prescribed by the boss himself, and it was also a rare opportunity for him.
The water bath boiled on the lab table.
The student read the instructions and then read Yang Rui's paper. He did not choose a special DNA to replicate, but according to the choice in Yang Rui's paper, he started to repeat the experiment one by one.
He was not optimistic about the experiment.
"It's too simple. "Students are quite dismissive of the results of their dissertations from foreign countries.
"If you can replicate the DNA you want, people won't go crazy. The student smiled and shook his head as he continued to prepare the materials. Because the experiment was easy to do, he was going to do a few repeat experiments to compare.
Ease of doing was the feature of the first version of the PCR instrument, but in the eyes of scientific researchers, easy to do is often equated with maturity.
Mature products are often not excellent scientific research results.
The student is quite thoughtful about proving the mistakes of the original author, and it is naturally easier for him to show his ability.
The students went to find a few more books, and as they consulted, they argued.
Although the answer was not immediately found, the students were quite confident: "If it were so simple to copy DNA, everyone before it would have been made, and it would be a natural extension of the idea...... Well, since it is said that the predecessors did not make it, then there must be something wrong, and there is no solution in his paper, so there must be a problem with the experiment......"
Minutes and seconds passed.
It was getting dark.
The salon downstairs has also changed from a dinner party to a cocktail party, and the discussions of scholars have gradually shifted from academics to their own lives, school experiences, and social hot disputes.
"Ahh
It was the best time for the atmosphere, but there was a sudden mournful shout from upstairs.
Professor Rasgul sprang up with a lunge.
The most likely scenario for howling in a biological laboratory is an experimental accident.
Although it is not as easy to explode as a chemical laboratory, corrosive liquids, corrosive gases, toxic liquids, toxic gases, toxic solids, germs, deadly microorganisms, high-temperature vapors, and harmful residues can all harm the body of scientific research apes......
Professor Rasgul prayed silently, and with an age-inappropriate agility, he went straight upstairs.
Several others put down their glasses and followed.
