Although Editor-in-Chief Pitt can't understand the content inside, but when he saw the author of this paper, it turned out to be Xu Mang, who he had missed for a long time, and it seems that this week's cover is expected, but... When did he get involved in biology? Or gene editing?

"I remember Professor Wadson seems to be the editor of Nature Medicine, right?" Editor-in-chief Pitt asked solemnly, "Let him come over and see how influential this paper sent by Xu Mang is." ”

Words fall,

Pete picked up the phone he had and made a call to Professor Wadson, and soon the phone was working.

"Pete?"

"Why did you call me?" Professor Wadson asked curiously, "Do you want to invite me to a cup of coffee?" But this time seems to be not the time for coffee, if you have something to do with me, my office is downstairs from you, so you won't make a phone call, right?"

"Professor Wadson... Please come to my office right away. Pete said solemnly, "I got an email here, I don't know anything about your biology..."

"Huh?"

"Biology papers?" Professor Waderson was even more confused, and asked curiously: "Since it is a biology paper, it should be submitted to their "Nature Medicine", how can it be sent to your mailbox, it seems that the author is very unprofessional." ”

"Definitely. ”

"This guy rarely submits to other professional journals, only to Nature, and he is an expert in physics, and biology is estimated... A hobby. Pete smiled bitterly: "Anyway, you may be pleasantly surprised if you come and take a look." ”

Surprise?

I'm afraid it's not a disappointment!

Hearing Pitt's words, Professor Wadson's heart refused, but someone else was the editor-in-chief, so he could only go to his office to see the research results of the so-called physics experts in biology, but basically Professor Wadeson did not have any hope, a physics person to study biology, this is simply funny.

“...”

"Editor-in-Chief Pete?" the middle-aged man smiled wryly, "Professor Wadeson should be reluctant, right?"

"Almost. ”

"But... I had a hunch that he would soon be blown away. Pete smiled indifferently: "None of Xu Mang's research results are not world-shaking existences, I believe... In the field of biology, he can do the same. ”

Although it sounds very nonsense for a person who is engaged in physics to study biology, in Pete's eyes, it is so commonplace, there is no way... He is Xu Mang, so there is such a possibility.

soon

A grumbling voice came from outside the office door.

"I said Pete... What is there to see?" the door opened, and Professor Wadson said reluctantly, "Who is this amazing physicist?

“...”

“...”

It seems that this resentment is not ordinary.

Pete said helplessly: "This magical physics expert is Xu Mang, who recently relied on artificial intelligence to crush all nine representative teams in the United States in the protein structure prediction competition CASP. ”

Suddenly,

Professor Wadson was speechless, it turned out to be this guy...

"Is it him?" Professor Wadson suddenly realized, originally reluctant, but at this time he became a little expectant, and said: "If it is Professor Xu Mang, I am very curious about what ideas he provided this time, the previous 'Xu Man system' opened my eyes." ”

"Don't worry!" Pete said, "I don't think you will be disappointed this time, he seems to have developed a system that goes beyond the CRISPR–Cas9 gene editing system, I just learned about it briefly, but you know... My biological level is not good enough to understand the field of base gene editing. ”

"What!"

"A system that goes beyond the CRISPR–Cas9 gene editing system?" Waderson said with a look of surprise, "how is this possible... The CRISPR–Cas9 gene editing system is currently the most popular and stable system in the world. I don't believe it. ”

"Don't swear!" Pete hurriedly said: "According to my experience, none of the people who usually question Xu Mang's research results end well, and Wadeson... Hurry up and change your concept, or I'm afraid you'll doubt life. ”

"No!"

"I trust my gut feeling that the CRISPR–Cas9 gene editing system is impossible to beat. Professor Wadson said stubbornly, "If I lose... Pete, I'll treat you to dinner in the evening, whatever you order, I'm willing to pay for it!"

"Good!"

"That's it!" Pete laughed, "Come on, come on, you sit." ”

Followed by

Pete stood up and stood aside, making room for Professor Wadson.

Professor Wadson sat in front of the computer and glanced at the title of the paper on the screen, "CRISPR-C2c1 Gene Editing System", and immediately fell into doubt, as if what was this written between his eyebrows?

"CRISPR-C2c1 Gene Editing System?"

"Is it because I'm alone, or have I been disconnected from the real world for too long?" Professor Wadson said curiously, "How come I've never heard of the CRISPR-C2c1 gene editing system?

"You don't know, and I don't know. Pete smiled wryly.

Professor Wadson didn't speak, silently reprojecting his gaze back onto the monitor, the first few paragraphs of inconsequential nonsense about the shortcomings of the CRISPR–Cas9 gene editing system, which Wadson knew and biologists around the world knew.

But

When Waderson got to the core, he felt like he was about to stop breathing, and that's when he really understood what the CRISPR-C2c1 gene editing system meant.

Solved?

It was actually solved?

Xu Mang actually solved a problem that plagued the whole world, he solved the requirements of the working environment temperature, so that C2c1 nuclease has a wider field.

Professor Wadson slowed down his reading, he didn't want to miss every detail of the paper because of his urgency, and at this time, suddenly a newborn baby had just arrived in this new world, and everything around him was so unfamiliar.

"Oh my God!"

"Oh my God!"

"God... It's... Does it really exist?"

Muttering to himself, the old biology professor had an unbelievable look in his eyes, as if he had seen an unspeakable miracle.

Editor-in-Chief Pitt noticed that Wadeson was in a trance, as if he had been stimulated in some way, which made him a little nervous, he didn't want to see Wadeson have a heart attack triggered by excitement because of Xu Mang's research report, if so... This is undoubtedly a tragedy.

"Your Professor Wadson's office, looking for any medicine for heart disease... If you have one, bring it right away. Pete said to the middle-aged man next to him, "Quick!"

"Okay!"

The middle-aged man didn't talk any nonsense and left the office directly, and he also observed Professor Wadson's strangeness.

"Pete!"

"It's... It's a miracle!" Professor Wadson turned his head, his face full of consternation, and said, "Xu Mang... He.. He developed the world's most advanced genome editing tools, and I... I'm going crazy... I'm so excited, I..."

Professor Wadson began to speak incoherently, unable to imagine what he had just seen, anyway... The world will change in the future, cancer will no longer be one of the main killers affecting human health, and cancer will be completely eradicated in the future!

"Waderson... I'm more worried about your problem now, you... You shouldn't have a heart attack, right?" Pete asked cautiously, "You calm down your emotions now, I'm afraid that you will have a heart attack because of Xu Mang's research report." ”

"No, no, no!"

"Pete... I have no regrets!" Professor Wadson said excitedly: "This will definitely shake the whole world, and even affect human development for the next twenty years, and the impact of this study is too great... I now have a strong premonition that the world will change because of this paper!"

Words fall,

Professor Wadson asked tentatively, "Pete... Why don't you put it in Nature Medicine?"

"No way!"

"This is for me, why did you snatch it. Editor-in-chief Pitt said angrily: "Next time... How about giving it to you next time?"

"Next time?"

"How can there be so many next times?" Waderson glanced at Pete, and a professor in his sixties and seventies began to play scoundrel: "No... Gotta give it to me!"

"You..."

"I said Wadson... Without you, Nature would have one less cover study. Pete said helplessly: "If Xu Mang submits a paper on biology next time, I will let you do it?"

ultimately

The study was again published in Nature.

Then

Pete asked curiously, "Wadson... You're saying that this paper could affect human development in the next 20 years? A bit of an exaggeration?"

"Exaggerated?"

"Then I ask you... In the future, cancer may be completely eradicated because of this paper, do you think it is an exaggeration? Super drug-resistant bacteria may completely lose their drug resistance because of this paper, do you think it is an exaggeration?"

Pete fell silent for a long time before he spoke, "If that's the case... Xu Mang undoubtedly promoted the entire civilization, but in the future, a world war will break out because of resources. ”

"No!"

"Not anytime soon. Waderson shook his head and said seriously: "It takes a long time to build, and don't forget that some people who oppose gene editing will be pushed into the realm of ethical discussion for a long time." ”

however

No matter what the future holds, the only thing that is certain is that this technology is an indispensable key to the development of human civilization.

...

Two days later,

The world was shocked by a study.
