Chapter 147: Results Presentation

Originally, Zhou Wen didn't mention it, and Zuo Mengmeng almost forgot about it.

Now that I mentioned it, I was immediately embarrassed.

I was embarrassed to squeeze on the sofa with Zhou Wen to watch TV, and went upstairs with my mobile phone.

Sitting on the bed, holding the phone and flipping through it without opening it, thinking about messy things in my mind.

I don't know how long it took, but the sound of text messages on her mobile phone pulled her back from her trance.

Look at the time, it's almost 10 o'clock.

Take your pajamas to the bathroom and get ready to take a shower.

When she accidentally saw herself in the mirror, she was startled, and her face was as red as a stove.

"What the hell am I thinking?" Zuo Mengmeng put down the clothes in his hand, held his face with both hands and rubbed it vigorously.

Stared at a quirky face in the mirror for a long time, then his head was hot, he reached out and turned off the hot water outlet next to the water heater, and went downstairs with his pajamas.

When he arrived at the staircase, Zuo Mengmeng stopped again, raised his hand and knocked on his head, "Zuo Mengmeng, what are you doing! Are you crazy?"

Then he ran back to the room, locked the door with his backhand, and lay on the bed for a while without looking up.

She actually wanted to go to lust and seduce Zhou Wen just now......

……

……

At nine o'clock in the morning of December 10, Zhou Wen submitted a report on prion scientific research achievements to the Medical Department of Jiangzhou University.

Twenty minutes later, the Medical Center of Jiangzhou University held a briefing meeting.

Several key members of the prion research team, Zhou Wen, Li Wenshuo, Zhang Pengfei and Li Na, attended the briefing.

Zhou Wen gave a detailed explanation to the leaders of the medical department present.

Subsequently, Li Wenshuo demonstrated the working principle of lysosome-PsC1.

When the demonstration ended, Professor Chen Tongguang, director of the hospital department and doctoral supervisor, took the lead in applauding.

Soon the audience burst into warm applause.

Chen Tongguang patted Zhou Wen on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Jiangzhou University Medical Center, it's really lucky to have such an outstanding scientific research worker as you!"

"Hehe, Professor Chen, you have won the award......

On December 11, the Medical Department of Jiangzhou University announced that it had made a major scientific research breakthrough in the field of prion inactivation.

The Prion Research Group of the First People's Hospital affiliated to the Medical Department of Jiangzhou University announced that a lysosome has been discovered that can effectively inactivate prions in a conventional state.

After the news was announced, it did not cause as much shock as expected.

The main reason for this is that, firstly, prions are a super unpopular research topic in medicine in China.

There is now only one institute and one research group left in the country.

The fewer people who study, the fewer people who pay attention.

Second, anyone who knows anything about prions knows how difficult it is to inactivate prions.

So far, there is no way to destroy prion proteins without damaging normal proteins.

What even top foreign laboratories can't do, a small domestic research team can do?

When most people see this announcement, the first thing that comes to mind is that it must be some kind of "prion inactivation conjecture" or something.

And there will be a lot of such inactivation conjectures every day,

Pointless!

So it's not too much of a concern.

Of course, there are people who care.

For example, Qin Ziyu, director of the China Prion Research Institute, called Chen Tongguang as soon as possible to ask what was going on?

In addition, Xie Jingming, deputy director of the Zhonghai Institute of Virology, and more than 20 experts in the "Virus Exchange Home", such as Gu Yunwen, Jiang Feng Yuhuo, Wu Jianzhai, Xia's old house, Nangong Qingdeng, etc., also called Zhou Wen.

When the specific situation is known, prion inactivation is not a conjecture, but a real study of the lysosome-PsC1 that can decompose prion proteins, and everyone's expression is dull.

A graduate student, leading several biology PhDs, actually overcame the global problem of prion inactivation.

There is a sense of fantasy among all of them.

If it weren't for their familiarity with Zhou Wen, they would definitely suspect that Zhou Wen was bragging.

In this regard, the Medical Department of Jiangzhou University is naturally prepared, and then announced that it will hold a major scientific research results conference.

The school notified top Chinese biomedical journals such as Cell Research and Science.

In addition, invitations were also sent to famous prion scientists such as United States, Eagle Country, Germany, Japan, and Hanguo.

Steve Elsey, head of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Prion Research Institute in the United States, was stunned when he saw the email instruction manual sent by Jiangzhou University.

"It's absolutely impossible, they don't even have their own prion identification system, how can they be able to inactivate under normal conditions?"

Mick Stewart, a yeast prion scientist at Eagle University's Kent University, when he saw the words Jiangzhou University, his first reaction was to ask for help with the yeast system.

But when he saw the email, Stewart's reaction was exactly the same as that of MIT's Dr. Elsie.

"No way, it's absolutely impossible!"

Dr. Richard Ralph, University of Hamburg, Germany.

Dr. Takuto Kanai of the University of Tokyo.

Wait a minute.

Everyone's reaction was similar to that of Stuart and Dr. Elsie.

It's not a question of disbelief.

Because they understand all too well the difficulty of prion protein inactivation.

It's hellish!

How is it possible to succeed casually?

Soon, with the news announced by the Medical Department of Jiangzhou University, it caused a huge sensation in the global biomedical community.

Especially Europe.

The "mad cow disease" caused by prions once made European countries smell and change, and once reached the point of talking about cattle color.

Many cervids, including elk, moose and several other species of deer, are highly susceptible to the virus.

Because the virus is very contagious, it can be easily transmitted through saliva, urine, feces and other excrement, and it can survive for years in a normal environment.

Once the disease takes root, it becomes extremely difficult to completely clean up the area's environmental pollution.

Reindeer and moose in Norway, for example, have seen the disease, and the government has eventually called on hunters across the country to kill infected deer herds and control the spread of the disease even if they are "exterminated".

You can imagine how terrifying it is.

Now that there is finally a way to eradicate this virus, how can we not pay attention to it?

Just when Jiangzhou Medicine, the Medical Department and even Jiangzhou University were all rejoicing, Zhou Wen was very troubled.

On the afternoon of the 12th, Zhou Wen took a biology class at Jiangzhou University.

At the end of class, a sophomore boy wearing glasses came to him and asked him, how do students make money?

Zhou Wen was a little embarrassed.

According to his original assumption, if everything went well, there was almost a move now.

But Jiangzhou University vetoed his proposal, causing his plan to be stillborn.

After perfunctory a little about the boys, Zhou Wen called Professor Wang Huiyao, and when he learned that he was in the laboratory building, he immediately rushed over.

The teacher and student sat opposite each other with a cup of tea and a cigarette each.

Zhou Wen took a puff of cigarette and said: "Yesterday, Director Chen Tongguang told me that the Ministry of Medicine intends to fund the establishment of the Prion Research Institute, and said that he wants me to be the director of the Institute. But I refused. ”

Wang Huiyao shook his head with a regretful expression, "You, you are so young and vigorous." Why turn down such a great opportunity?"

Zhou Wen said with a smile: "Actually, when I started researching prions, I just wanted to mix up some qualifications, but I didn't expect to achieve the current results." ”

“……”

Hearing Zhou Wen's words, Wang Huiyao was speechless.

A casual study will solve the global problem of prion inactivation, and if you are serious, wouldn't it be necessary to solve all prion-related diseases.

"What are you going to do without prions?"

Zhou Wen replied to the question: "Today, a junior asked me, how do you make money after graduating from student biology?"

Wang Huiyao understood as soon as he heard it.

It seems that Zhou Wen is still not giving up on the integrated development of teaching, research and training!

"And what are your plans?"

Zhou Wen was silent for a moment and said: "I plan to concentrate on genetic engineering, as well as biopharmaceuticals! Genetic engineering is mainly used to train cutting-edge biological talents, and then carry out blood transfusions through biopharmaceuticals. ”

Wang Huiyao understood what Zhou Wen meant.

The school is reluctant to invest, so he plans to personally invest in genetic research to fulfill his previous promise to his classmates.

"Are you sure you want to invest personally? This is not a small amount of money, genetic engineering research is very expensive, and only large research institutes sponsored by the group can afford to play abroad. ”

"It's okay! When the results come out, I'm sure someone will invest! It's just that the upfront investment needs a sum of money. ”

Wang Huiyao nodded, "Okay, you just have a number in your heart, the teacher's ability is limited, and he will sponsor you 1 million." ”

Zhou Wen said with a smile: "Sponsorship is not necessary, count it as shares." ”

"Whatever you want. By the way, is there a specific research direction?"

"Yes, plant genetic technology ......"

……

At 9 a.m. on Saturday the 15th, the "Conference on Major Scientific Research Achievements" was held in the main campus of Jiangzhou University.

In addition to leaders at all levels of Jiangzhou University, there were also the directors and deputy directors of the China Institute of Prions, academicians of the Academy of Sciences, leaders of the Propaganda Department of the Jiangzhou-Municipal Party Committee, and reporters from more than 30 media units, including People's M Daily, China Y TV, and Sudong Satellite TV.

In addition, there are more than 50 prion scientists from 21 countries around the world.

The press conference was extremely grand.

The results conference was presided over by Feng Ming, member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee and vice president of the school.

It stands to reason that the first author of the results, Zhou Wen, should publish the theme.

However, Zhou Wen did not attend the press conference because of something, and Li Wenshuo, the second author of the results, attended the release on his behalf.

These are the little things.

When Li Wenshuo showed the PPT of prion protein being broken down by lysosomal PsC1 on the big screen at the scene, many foreign scientists at the scene showed unbelievable expressions on their faces.

Just when they were discussing, Li Wenshuo directly announced the production method and process of lysosomal PsC1.

At this time, the scientists at the scene could no longer sit still, and many people stood up directly in shock.

"It's... How is this possible!"

"How exactly did they do it......"
