Chapter 298: Experimenting Together

It's easy to lose track of time when doing experiments, it's like making a handmade model when you were a child, and seeing that there are still three steps to complete, and seeing that there are still two steps to complete, you are naturally concentrating and looking forward to the thrill of completion.

In the past year or so, although there has been plagiarism and repetition in the papers, the experiments have to be done by themselves. Students who have just started to do experiments may remember how many times they have done the experiment, and when the habit becomes natural, they will have to look at the experiment record a few times.

Wang Ying and others finished reading Yang Rui's papers, some continued to read the rest of the papers, and some watched Yang Rui's experiments from afar.

Unlike Wang Ying's fast and skillful, Yang Rui's experimental movements are straightforward and accurate.

This style originally did not belong to Yang Rui himself, as a scientific research dog, the so-called scientific research heart is quite weak, sometimes, it is to work to complete the task, most people are like Wang Ying's experimental style.

In some laboratories, professors or small bosses who manage research dogs always have to devise various measures to reduce experimental errors in research dogs.

However, Yang Rui's goal model is very different from that of the scientific research dog, he has already begun to write his own paper, and more importantly, he knows the success node.

If you want to repeat the experiment, you must strive for accuracy.

This is especially true for experiments that Yang Rui has not done.

Repeating experiments is not as simple as it sounds, some experiments are very simple, and some experiments are extremely difficult.

In middle school chemistry experiment class or biology experiment class, it often happens that some students have made experiments, and some students have not done their experiments.

Experiments in student days are already the simplest and easiest to give people a sense of achievement, but there will still be situations where you can't do it, and it's too normal that the experiments in the university laboratory can't be done.

In fact, in the case of the Chinese lab in the 80s, as long as you could repeat an experiment in a foreign mid-range journal, you would have no problem publishing it in a high-end Chinese journal.

As for the experiments in foreign high-end journals, such as the experiments in "Cell", there are not many that can be repeated, and if you can do repeated experiments, it is not difficult to write a verification article and continue to publish it in foreign journals. For example, after the publication of her famous work in Nature, the first question asked by science and technology reporters was: Did someone repeat the experiment successfully?

As a result, no one was able to replicate Kobokata's experiment, and the paper, which was thought to be a potential candidate for the Nobel Prize, was proven to be a fraud.

Even if Yang Rui repeats experiments based on the papers in his mind, he will encounter countless problems.

The average paper is very short, but the experimental process is very long. A 2,000-word paper may take several experimenters months or even years to make, and the process is often not reflected between the lines.

Many papers are not published after the experiment is successful, and the paper can be published even if the experiment fails, and some papers are even more important than the paper that the experiment succeeds. Using mathematics as an example, whoever can prove that Goldbach's conjecture will certainly become a man of the century, but whoever can prove that Goldbach's conjecture cannot be established will be an earth-shattering man of the century, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the foundation for changing the whole world.

For Yang Rui, the process of experimentation is also a process of learning.

None of the experiments is isolated, and normal experiments are based on other studies.

In a paper, other basic research is often just a sentence in the references, but in an experiment, it may take several days to prepare.

Yang Rui's selection of a paper to do repeated experiments should be traced back to the basic experiments before the experiment, and the basic experiments before the experiments are likely to be done before the basic experiments.

As a former scientific research worker, this kind of independent large-scale experiment is also a huge test for Yang Rui himself, although no one comes to share the honor, but he also has no one to share the success, and no one to share the pressure...... Although every researcher is ultimately lonely, not every researcher enjoys this loneliness at all times.

Wang Ying could understand Yang Rui's feelings very well, watched for a while, and couldn't help but say, "Do you want me to help?"

Yang Rui took a little break from the focused experiment and asked, "You don't have any experiments to do?"

"Professor Tang is not doing experiments today, what can we do, this is not waiting for the evaluation team to come. ā€

"Wouldn't it be better if everyone was doing experiments when the evaluation team came?"

"It's good to pretend then, now only you are in the mood to do experiments, I just see how busy you are, and give you a hand. Wang Ying's initial bad attitude towards Yang Rui was a kind of unhappiness after the authority was damaged, but after two months of contact, her attitude gradually turned to admiration.

Seeing his sincerity, Yang Rui bowed his head and said, "It just so happens that I'm doing manual work, and this pipette is for you." ā€

Experiments on molecular mechanisms are usually hundreds of repetitions. The more popular molecular mechanism experiments are usually in medicine, such as cancer cells, AIDS cells, or the kinetics of a drug......

This kind of experiment is physically demanding, and it cannot be left undone, and it must be done seriously, and any problems must be discovered in time...... Success is often hidden in a small change.

Yang Rui was tired, and seeing that Wang Ying really wanted to help, he hurriedly found a pipette for him and taught him how to use it.

Because it was imported, Yang Rui bought half a dozen pipettes at a time.

Wang Ying thought it was easy to use, praised it twice, and didn't say too much.

If you compare a pipette to a quill pen, a pipette is like a Montblanc pen, which is easy to use, but if you write a word or two, you won't notice much of a difference.

Sun Ruyue also hurriedly stood up to help Yang Rui.

He Quangui and Wang Yaowu looked at each other and said, "Yes, let's help too." ā€

Yang Rui then gave them two pipettes, and the four of them worked around the test bench.

Only Zhao Pingchuan didn't like to do experiments, so he shouted "I'm going to mop the floor" and went out.

After half an hour, a few people slowly figured out the pipette.

He Quangui said enviously: "This is what Professor Tang deserves from you...... I said, the gel lab won't really have to be canceled, and I don't think Assistant Huang has anything for you. ā€

"It wasn't our lab in the first place. The gel lab is estimated to be merged, but the experiment on the gel side will definitely continue, but the plate is getting bigger. "Wang Ying is relatively old, and she can talk to teaching assistants and lecturers, and she knows a lot of information.

Yang Rui explained: "The pipette is an instrument in Jielizen's laboratory, and I will use it first. ā€

He Quangui was even more envious: "Foreigners' laboratories are good, this is imported, right?"

"It's better, $600 a piece. ā€

"600 dollars!" He Quangui's hand shook and he almost threw the pipette out: "Why are you buying such an expensive thing?

"So foreigners have money, and in their labs, this kind of thing is ready to use. Yang Rui is also telling the truth. Although he spent money to buy these pipettes, pipettes have long been standard in the foreigner's laboratory.

Although there are scientific research dogs in Chinese and foreign laboratories for squeezing, however, China's scientific research dog breeding methods are the same as the breeding methods of native dogs. In the laboratories of Europe and the United States, scientific research dogs are like foreign dogs, rich laboratories to raise famous dogs, not only to be strong and good-looking, many also require pure blood, such as Ivy League graduates, after the famous family or something, buy dog food and give care, it is easy to become beautiful and lively. There is no money to raise some ordinary dogs in the laboratory, although there is no treatment of famous dogs, dog food or something is always enough.

In a world where a Montblanc pen costs a few hundred dollars, it's normal for a good pipette to cost a few hundred dollars.

He Quangui and the others could only shake their heads helplessly.

Wang Yaowu picked up the pipette and looked at it carefully for a while, and said, "No wonder so many people want to run to the United States." ā€

"It's not easy to get into a lab in the United States. Yang Rui glanced at him and said, "Before graduation, write two English essays and then leave, and it is estimated that it will be smoother when you go to the American school." Of course, whether you can go or not is not the main thing to look at this. ā€

It is difficult to study in the United States, and it is even more difficult to do scientific research in the United States.

He Quangui said: "There are also people in our class who apply to study abroad, and I am not going to go, so I just think that I can stay in school." ā€

"Staying in school is Assistant Teacher He. Sun Ruyue said with a smile.

"It seems to sound very good, by the way, Lao Wang, what are your plans, if you stay in school, you will be Lecturer Wang directly. "After graduating from the bachelor's degree, I was a teaching assistant in the school, and I was promoted to a lecturer in about two years. Graduate students study for three more years, and they are directly lecturers at the school, and after five years, they can be evaluated as associate professors, and doctoral students are treated the best, and they will be directly evaluated as associate professors after one year of arriving at the school. In terms of the scarcity of PhDs in the 80s, it was also very easy to evaluate professors.

Wang Ying said without raising her head: "I don't want to stay in school, I'm going to go to the graduate school?"

"Why did you go to the graduate school?"

"The conditions of the graduate school are good, and there is no need to substitute teach. Wang Ying was concise and to the point.

"In the long run, I feel like the school will get better and better. He Quangui's words made Yang Rui look at him differently, although it was a simple conclusion, at least it showed that this guy had a vision.

In 1984, such a judgment also required a bit of courage.

At least for the time being, it's better to be a research institute.

Several people spoke and spoke, but their movements did not slow down.

It didn't take long for most of the experiment to be done, and Yang Rui wrote the experiment records more than twice as often.

"People are coming. Zhao Pingchuan rushed back from outside, interrupting the movements of several people in a low voice.

As he spoke, a group of seven or eight people walked into the laboratory from the corridor outside.

"This is our electrophoresis lab. Professor Tang made an introduction as soon as he entered the door, but the smile on his face changed from warm to embarrassing.

On the floor, fragments of postal parcels were scattered around the table legs, and the test bench was littered with multiple single and journal books.

One of the assessment team teachers bent down to pick up the parcel pieces, and another assessment team teacher picked up the journal on the table and gathered it away.

Professor Tang's face also flushed slightly.
