Everyone changed into white coats and entered the sterilization room, and then entered the most important experimental area in the laboratory.

Natalie is beautiful in her coat, and Don feels that she is also personable in a white coat.

But Murdoch and Lei Shidong also wear it like this, why do they always think it's so funny?

I'm old, wouldn't it be good to wait for the results outside, so I have to come over and join in the fun.

It may also be this stubborn character that causes them to be reluctant to delegate power in the company.

Here, there are already two young graduate students who have prepared the experimental equipment.

It's a guinea pig in a glass case.

"Let's look here, there are two guinea pigs here. One is 6 months old and the other is 22 months old. Can you tell which guinea pig is younger?" Professor Sinclair led the group to the lab box with "I" on it.

The question is simple.

The two mice in the glass box, one alive, a pair of front paws kept grinding their teeth, their eyes purring around, and their hair shiny, as if they were ready to escape from the cage.

The other mouse was much older, in poor spirits, lacking vitality, with half-squinted eyes and half-closed, lying quietly in a corner, not moving. The hair is sparse and dark in color.

Murdoch and Lei Shidong were like spectators, not saying a word from beginning to end, and really gave up the dominance to Don.

As Don En, he naturally didn't bother to answer such an idiotic question, and laughed without saying a word.

Natalie smiled and said, "Professor, I'm afraid anyone can tell that the little mouse in the corner is older. ”

Professor Sinclair nodded, "That's right, normally, a mouse only lives for 30 months. The mouse had lived for 22 months, the equivalent of 60 years for a human...... Or 70 years old, already in old age. ”

This professor may have done too much scientific research and is really not good at words.

As soon as these words came out, Murdoch and Lei Shidong's faces became a little ugly.

70 years old and old age?

So what are they?

They're still young!

Don couldn't help but smile and made a gesture of please, motioning for him to continue.

Next, Professor Sinclair came to Chambers "II", where there were still two guinea pigs.

Judging from the state and appearance, it is almost the same.

His eyes twitched and his little paws scratched, similar to the 6-month-old guinea pig in the "I" test box.

Unexpectedly, Professor Sinclair's next words surprised all the people who came to visit: "There are also two guinea pigs here, one is 6 months old and the other is 22 months old. Mr. Walker, can you tell the difference?"

The crowd froze.

Including Donn.

Unbelievable!

The two mice in front of the "II" experiment box are difficult to see with the naked eye which one is younger!

Doesn't this mean that the 22-month-old mouse has used special means to rejuvenate?

Don's eyes widened and he glanced back at Murdoch and Lei Shidong.

I found that these two old guys were also shocked.

Is this true?

There were seven people visiting this time, including Murdoch's assistant, Lei Shidong's secretary, Don's girlfriend, and a school trustee.

The most important of these are naturally Donn, Murdoch and Lei Shidong.

Seeing that the three of them were surprised, Sinclair was in a mood and became more confident, and said enthusiastically: Through our experimental methods, we have successfully restored a 22-month-old mouse to the physical state it was in when it was 6 months old. ”

Natalie exclaimed, "6-month-old guinea pig...... That's the equivalent of 20 years old. Professor, are you saying that your experimental research has the ability to restore a 70-year-old man to a 20-year-old physical condition? God, is this true?"

Both Murdoch and Lei Shidong's breathing was about to stop.

Marvellous!

It's incredible.

Lindsay Wu, an associate researcher next to her, explained with a smile: "This is just an experiment with mice, and our research has only just begun. Further research is needed as to how much of an impact it will have on the human body. However, past medical studies have shown that successful trials in animals can also be applied to humans, but with differences in the effectiveness and side effects. ”

Professor Sinclair said, "That's true. The success of the mouse experiment is also a source of confidence in our exploration of the human body in the future. ”

Tang En couldn't be silent anymore and couldn't help but ask, "How did this experiment work?" I mean...... How long have you been doing this?"

"We've been working on this topic since the lab was built last year, mainly because of the technical difficulties," said Professor Sinclair. As for this experiment, it is actually very simple, and you can get the results of the experiment after a week. ”

"A week?"

"That's right. We extract the internal coenzymes from the young mice in advance and make them into reagents. Then twice a day, injected into the elderly mice, it only takes 1 week for this effect to appear. ”

Done's eyes narrowed, "You mean, this rejuvenated 22-month-old guinea pig has only been injected for a week?"

Professor Sinclair nodded solemnly: "That's true. ”

Tang En, Murdoch and Lei Shidong glanced at each other and stopped talking.

What was in front of them was so shocking that it was hard for them to believe it was real.

One week of a guinea pig is equivalent to about 10 months for humans.

Wouldn't that say...... The same experiment is applied to people, and it doesn't take a year to rejuvenate?

After being silent for a long time, the eldest Lei Shidong couldn't help but say, "If you are extracting human body ...... That kind of active enzyme, which is then injected in a similar way, doesn't that mean ...... Can it rejuvenate the elderly?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the laboratory changed slightly.

Although everyone's goal is to prolong life, these words are too interesting.

Professor Sinclair hurriedly said: "No, Mr. Lei Shidong, I think you may have misunderstood, this is not rejuvenation, but the delayed aging of cells, and the repair of damage to cells from the inside. The physical signs of mice are sensitive, so the effect will be more obvious, as for what will happen to the human body, further research is needed. ”

Lindsey Wu added: "The internal coenzyme we extracted was able to delay cell aging, reduce carcinogenesis, and antioxidant, and the rate of cell aging in this 22-month-old mouse has been reduced by 60%. ”

Professor Sinclair added: "Our research is just the beginning, there is still a lot of scientific evidence to be solved, and our research is currently limited to mice. There is still a long way to go before we can finally rise to the heights of humanity. Moreover, we currently lack the qualifications and ability to conduct human experiments. ”

More importantly, there are ethical issues involved.

Extracting internal coenzymes from mice is fine, but humans can't. Isn't it unreasonable to pump out the internal coenzymes of young people to the powerful and wealthy elderly? This is not the same as organ donation, which is aimed at the deceased. However, the extraction of internal coenzymes must be living and extremely large.

In order to be used in humans, it must be a synthetic drug. Artificial coenzymes cannot be made, and even if there is a theoretical basis and experimental basis for delaying aging, it is difficult to apply it in practice.

Unless it's a black market and black-hearted scientist who really takes the living.

If you want to synthesize from mice to humans, from life constitution to human synthesis, it really takes too long a scientific research time.

Moreover, even if all this goes well, synthetic drugs will really appear in the future, and it will be another ghost door to pass the review of the US Food and Drug Administration and FDA.

The FDA has the strictest review mechanism in the world, what if it doesn't pass? Do super-rich people like Murdoch and Lei Shidong still eat it?

Don didn't understand the medical profession, and his foresight didn't cover it.

He really didn't know what the future prospects of the project were.

Just know that the risk is very high!

Super super big!

However, it's really exciting!

What an exciting proposition to continue life!

At this point, Professor Sinclair continued: "Do you know Professor Ray Kurzweil? He is the president of Singularity University, and I particularly like his book "The Singularity is Near", but I trust his judgment in the field of medical science more than his research in the field of artificial intelligence. He said that in the next 20 years, humans may have the ability to reprogram our bodies to stop the operation of the Stone Age genetic 'program' in the body, or even reverse it! ”

Ray Kurzweil?

Don's eyes lit up.

He really knew this man.

He is currently employed by Google to lead projects in the field of artificial intelligence.

At this point, Natalie said, "Professor, can I take a look at your lab report?"

Professor Sinclair smiled, "Of course. ”

Assistant Lindsay Wu took a thick stack of documents and said with a smile: "Our experiment is the first time in human history that two mammals with the same genetic background have obtained completely different aging rates through simple external intervention. We are writing a paper on this that will be published in the journal Science, and we look forward to more scientists and colleagues working with us to get more funding for R&D. ”

"R&D funding?" Natalie looked at her with a smirk, "I don't think you'll ever have to worry about funding for this project in the future." ”

"Huh?"

Lindsay Wu was slightly stunned, and then overjoyed.

Did these three big men agree to invest?

Don ignored the thoughts of this Chinese female scientist, but leaned over to Natalie, looked down at the experiment report, and then the whole person felt bad, all kinds of bizarre chemical formulas, making people dizzy.

"Nat, can you understand?" Donn smiled wryly.

Natalie glared at him angrily, "You look down on people?"

"Huh?"

Tang En was stunned for a moment, can he really understand?

Lindsay Wu smiled and said, "Mr. Walker, don't you know? Miss Portman almost made it to the finals of the Intel Science Prize? Did you know that the Intel Science Award is the second best prize in the American medical field after the Nobel Prize." It was also because of this award that Professor Sinclair was hired at Harvard University at the age of 30. ”

"Ah, yes. Don was a little confused.

Natalie snorted, "My Erdsh coefficient is 7!"

Donn asked, "What is the Erdsh coefficient?"

Natalie rolled her eyes, "I don't have any scientific knowledge!
