Chapter 157: Piercing the Sky (Asking for Subscription)
Today, Science and Technology Daily broke a very interesting thing.
"Jinxi Provincial University of Traditional Chinese Medicine has set a record for the lowest project funding. ”
It turned out that after Bai Ye's project was expedited for approval, it was sent to the Provincial Department of Science and Technology, and after summarizing and reporting, a strange thing was discovered.
The project applied by Jinxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine: "Exploration of the Influence of BY-1 Feed on Experimental Parameters of Mouse" project funding is 1 yuan!
For a while, people in the academic circle suddenly became curious, what is the project fund of 1 yuan?
However, after reading the complete news, people smiled, the original fund was 200,000 yuan, but Bai Ye was all responsible for the funds.
But what does this $1 mean?
Why 1 yuan? Why not, you can do research at your own expense!
However, Jinxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine did not explain and declare to the outside world, and the entire campus was already conducting experiments in an orderly manner at this time.
Because the BPFH score involves a relatively large number of indicators, and the strong support of the school leaders, all the teachers who have experiments are required to participate.
It can be said that this is the lowest project funding, the largest number of participants, the largest number of mice, and the largest variety of experiments involved since the establishment of Jinxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
It is no wonder that it will attract a lot of people's attention, and Zhang Hanlin's office also ushered in a rare guest at this time.
Reporter of Science and Technology Daily, Yang Lan!
Nowadays, many media have multiple publicity channels such as websites and apps, and the most basic newspapers can no longer meet people's needs.
As a relatively formal media in the field of academia and science and technology in China: Science and Technology Daily, it naturally also has his platform.
With a smile on her face, Yang Lan interviewed Zhang Hanlin: "President Zhang, thank you for accepting our interview. ”
Zhang Hanlin smiled, nodded, and said, "Let's start?"
Yang Lan hummed, got the camera ready, and started today's interview:
"President Zhang, what do you think of Bai Ye's subject? This is your first move since taking office at the University of Chinese Medicine, is there any deep meaning?"
Zhang Hanlin's face was affectionate and dignified, and he said: "If we want to build a modern university of traditional Chinese medicine, we must raise the importance of scientific research to a certain height, and the reason why we encourage and support Bai Ye's topic is precisely because it can help the school and students create a scientific research atmosphere......"
Yang Lan nodded thoughtfully: "Well, President Yang is far-sighted, no wonder you can become the president of Jinxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, I estimate that you may be the youngest university in the country at this age, right?"
Zhang Hanlin smiled and said thank you.
Yang Lan continued to ask: "Principal Zhang, to be honest, the outside world is not optimistic about this project, and the evaluation is average, and even thinks that this is a meaningless act, can you objectively evaluate Bai Ye's first topic?"
Zhang Hanlin was silent for a while, and after thinking for a while, he said: "This child is very talented and very thoughtful, I think as an alma mater, we should give the children an environment and a chance to exercise, and this time his project is basically done at his own expense, I think we should actively cooperate in this situation, instead of discouraged his enthusiasm." ”
"Maybe the project will fail, you won't get a useful conclusion, and even the experiment may not be successful, but it doesn't matter!"
"The important thing is that I let the children see that scientific research is encouraged and supported, and we, as our alma mater, should encourage the children to have scientific research thinking, cultivate scientific research ability, and be called a new generation of Chinese medicine practitioners!"
"That's what we're for, and it doesn't matter if it's successful or not!"
"Because, from the moment we approved the project, the result was doomed: there is no failure, and failure may be the greatest success, right? ”
…………
The interview lasted more than an hour before it ended.
The next day's Science and Technology Daily published an exclusive interview with Zhang Hanlin, and Zhang Hanlin's words were also written in the newspaper as they were, and this interview occupied a large part of the Science and Technology Daily.
Zhang Hanlin's words aroused heated discussions among many people, some agreed, some disagreed, and some laughed.
But most people's opinion is that this project is a bit of a joke, but it doesn't matter, after all, it's a bit strange that there are so many major topics every year, not to mention that this is just a college-level project.
However, regardless of the outside world's comments, the current school can be said to be in full swing.
Everyone haunts the experimental building and the library, looking up materials, taking notes, and exchanging experiences.
Zhang Hanlin stood on the 9th floor, looking at the campus through the window, not knowing what he was thinking.
The school office next to him said, "Principal Zhang, yesterday's incident is in the newspaper, do you want to take a look?"
Zhang Hanlin smiled and waved his hand: "No need, I guess there are no good words, those people may look at our jokes." ”
The man in the school office said: "Yes, they all sound good, but to put it bluntly, they are all waiting to see our jokes." But why are you being interviewed, Principal?"
Zhang Hanlin turned around and said: "Bai Ye is still young, he needs to grow up, we are elders, if we don't support the burden for the students, what courage will they have to move forward?" Besides, Bai Ye will graduate soon, I hope he can lead a group of people before graduation, sometimes, the influence of students is greater than that of teachers!"
The man pondered Zhang Hanlin's words for a moment and nodded.
………………
Experiments on mice have been going on for more than a week, and the outside world is also talking about it, and some are even waiting for negative examples.
200,000 scientific research funds, 60,000 mice, more than 30 experimental projects, hundreds of experimental teams, and hundreds of participants.
This topic has attracted the attention of too many people, and even think that it is a worthless topic.
Some experts and scholars pointed out that Jinxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine is a thousand dollars to buy horses, and the purpose of this initiative is not to do this experiment, but to build momentum!
It is to tell others that they are encouraging scientific research, supporting scientific research, attracting talents, and so on.
said that this is a beautiful move by Zhang Hanlin!
But there is no doubt that no matter how optimistic everyone is about Zhang Hanlin and the measures of the University of Chinese Medicine, no one is optimistic about this experiment.
I even thought it was a boring experiment.
A zoologist directly commented: "What kind of results do you want to get by comparing some data in a random way? Experiments are based on rules, not some strange thinking, to be honest, I really can't see the significance of these indicators?"
………………
Bai Ye has been even more busy these days, and he has also participated in the experiment, but what he does is collect data.
Every day's data was collected carefully, and Bai Ye's initial preparation was to wait a week to collect data together.
But this is not possible, because the data is cumbersome, it is easy to miss and have problems, just in case, Bai Ye directly recorded the collection on the same day and summarized it on the same day.
Therefore, the experiment was carried out safely.
Just as Jinxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine is conducting an orderly national participation experiment, the MIO Laboratory Animal Research Institute on the other side of the ocean is also in a hurry to hold this annual highest-level conference!
Enders, the institute's chairman, asked all group leaders to attend, and it was held in the exhibition hall at each of the grand industry annual meetings.
There is no doubt that this is a meeting of high specifications and high standards!
Why did Enders take this meeting so seriously and let all the group leaders attend?
Because after a week of analysis by the experimental team under the entire research institute, the mouse BPFH grade scoring system proposed by Bai Ye has been confirmed.
Perceptive old Enders already smelled something called the Pioneering Age.
So, after thinking about it a little, he didn't care about the weekend and went straight to this meeting.
How could he not be excited, because all along, the quality of mice is good, there has never been a gold standard.
The major research institutes have been using their own research standards, and this BPFH scoring system proposed by Bai Ye is undoubtedly a great unification of the scoring system!
And he also came up with four grades for mice based on their scores, which are very great innovations.
Thinking of this, old Enders felt that his breath was a little short.
After the meeting began, Enders sat down on the rostrum and began the meeting with a word:
"It was an ordinary day, but it was also a great day, but it was a milestone day in the history of laboratory zoology!"
In fact, the people present have some understanding of the BPFH score, but the understanding is not very comprehensive.
But Enders's words made everyone feel that this matter was not simple, because they were responsible for only a part of the measurement, not all of it.
Enders, on the other hand, got all the verified results, and there was also Bai Ye's paper.
Enders continued: "I'm sure you've got the paper, 'The BPFH Grading System for Experimental Mice.,'I'll give you a general introduction. ”
"More than two months ago, we received a submission article about the conjecture of the scoring system for experimental mice, and I believe everyone knows this article, because we have also made various attempts for it. ”
But just over a week ago, the author submitted another manuscript, which is the one in everyone's hands, and he has completely made a scoring table of the rat grading system in detail. ”
"Over the past week, our respective research groups and project leaders have validated each of these scores, and today I am announcing the results of the validation. ”
Speaking of this, Enders took a deep breath to calm the excitement in his heart.
"For a long time, our research on laboratory animals has been in the world's top industry, so it is not modest to say that we are the authority, our MIO Laboratory Animal Research Institute is the compass of the laboratory animal world, and we are committed to the study of new and more advantageous laboratory animals. ”
"However, we have overlooked a problem, that is: how to measure the quality of a mouse, is there a unified way to score the condition of these mice!"
"And now, someone has put forward this conjecture and solved this problem, he is Bai Ye, the creator of the BPFH score!"
………………
………………
The meeting lasted for a whole afternoon, mainly for the adjustment and arrangement of the work of the MIO Institute after the emergence of the BPFH score.
The next day, an incident swept the academic circles across the American continent:
The magazine under the MIO Institute: "Application Promotion of Laboratory Animals" has published a special issue!
What is a special issue, it is a special issue issued for a certain thing.
At this moment, all those who paid attention to this matter were dumbfounded!
A research institute of a European scientific research institute looked at the news on the computer and asked a colleague next to him suspiciously: "What happened? Isn't "Laboratory Animal Application Promotion" a monthly magazine? Why was it published in the middle of this month?"
The colleague took a closer look, and suddenly his eyes widened and said: "This is a special issue! You don't see it written: BPFH Rating Special Issue! Who is this cover? Why does it look so like a Chinese? And so young, it actually appeared on the cover of the magazine! Oh my God? What the hell is going on, Azeth, you hurry up and order! There must be something big going on, so that such a journal can publish a special issue, what the hell is going on, you hurry up...... I kind of can't wait!"
………………
In the world-renowned animal company - Lonka Animal Company, James Lyons sat in the president's office, looking at the computer with a solemn expression.
On the computer screen is the cover of MIO's official magazine "Laboratory Animal Application Promotion".
Twenty minutes later, he picked up the phone and dialed his secretary:
"You go and inform, and in an hour, the video conference will be held on time, and all the heads of the regions will participate, and you will ask the heads of the China region to call me back first. ”
After finishing speaking, Leon stared at the electronic magazine on the computer, muttering the name Bai Ye from time to time, thinking about something in his head.
………………
There is no doubt that the emergence of the BPFH score has the greatest impact on animal companies, because they are companies that deal directly with animals.
It can be said that the emergence of the BPFH score has opened a new horizon for evaluating experimental mice, allowing them to better and more perfectly evaluate the quality and grade of mice.
This is a big deal for the cultivation and sales of rats.
Not only Lonka, but all animal companies related to laboratory rats began to hold emergency meetings.
Because of the emergence of the BPFH score, the experimental mice will be equivalent to grading in the future, and it is no exaggeration to say that this will become the core standard for the sale of mice in the future.
In the future, it will no longer rely on word-of-mouth, advertising, and strength marketing, but on the MIO-certified BPFH score, if your rating is high, your mouse will be popular, and your product will sell well.
That's competitiveness!
Just a day after the publication of the MIO issue, all animal companies began to rush to a meeting to prepare for this historic change.
……………… I want to talk with more like-minded people about "Xueba is also open", pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
