If you use the words of the storytelling, Marjoli's mood at this time is about "heartbroken". Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

What is the concept of Yang Rui's project of two G protein-coupled receptors in one go? The difficulty is about two consecutive Normandy landings!

Wang Qi's level of scientific research projects is so terrifying, in the world-class laboratory, the world's best researchers, at their most energetic, the most knowledgeable age, unhesitating impact, 110 hours or even 140 hours a week in the laboratory, for three years, five years or even seven or eight years, using a huge amount of funds, using the world's best instruments and experimental materials that can be produced, trying to tackle the world's most cutting-edge, no one has ever challenged the successful project......

Organizing and launching a Normandy landing was nothing more than that.

The biggest difference from the Normandy landings is that in addition to the fact that researchers don't have to sacrifice their lives, the success rate of labs trying to do G protein-coupled receptors is even lower.

The Normandy landings were a war between two competing parties, and the enemy of the G protein-coupled receptor was not only the project itself, but also many similar challengers, and the consequence of this was that every world-class laboratory had to do its best to win.

Tens of millions of dollars of funding are not something that any laboratory can easily give up.

So, once you decide to participate in a project, every lab is quite sure. And, no matter how sure they are, they have to do their best.

It is difficult for Marjoli to imagine how the ion channel laboratory has gone to great lengths to complete the conformation of the G protein-coupled receptor, and then the crystal structure of the G protein-coupled receptor, and then the three-dimensional structure of the G protein-coupled receptor......

In this way, the Ion Channel Laboratory of Peking University actually carried out three Normandy landings in a row!

"Mr. Yang Rui, can I take a look at the three-dimensional structure of the paper?" Ma Qiaoli ran after Yang Rui's footsteps.

Yang Rui smiled and said, "You will be able to see it on Science soon, and the other party promised that I would arrange it in the latest issue." ”

Cutting in line is a treatment that belongs exclusively to high-end scholars.

It usually takes six months to a year for a normal scholar to submit a paper to be published in a journal, so later scholars are accustomed to publishing the paper in an online database first.

In the '80s, when there were no online databases, early publication minimized disputes, but it wasn't the editors of journals who could do this with nod their heads.

The editors of the journal themselves do not review the papers, and the more high-end the journal, the more attention is paid to the role of peer review. Peer review is the review of a contributor's paper by three academics, and academics are accustomed to procrastination on non-research matters.

In other words, if a scholar wants to cut the queue, he must first convince the journal editor, and then the latter convince the three peer-reviewed scholars to review the paper as quickly as possible, so that it can be quickly listed in the journal.

For journals like Science, there are only a handful of scholars who can say that the editor is specifically urging the review.

It is also Yang Rui's current paper that is so important that all parties have to deal with it carefully.

But, on the other hand, how many papers published in Science are unimportant?

The corners of Marjoley's mouth twitched twice, and said, "I want to take advantage of the opportunity to take a good look at ...... while I am still in China."

"This is not in order. Yang Rui shook his head, his goal this time was to brush up on the prestige of the Swedish delegation, not Marjooli alone, there was no need to risk it.

"I also know that this request is not in accordance with the rules...... "Marjoley paused, quickly picked up, and said, "$2 million for a zero-ask donation, as long as you show me your three-dimensional structure paper." Other than that, there are no requirements. ”

Marjoelli stopped saying things like recommendations, so he almost gave $2 million for nothing.

His idea is also very clear, if Yang Rui really made the crystal structure and three-dimensional structure in one go, all the problems in the embodiment stage of G protein coupling will be solved.

Solving a series of problems, that's a really big deal.

If nothing else, at least in the pharmaceutical industry, such research is worth at least 100 billion dollars - of course, Marjoli is still limited by the times, and the value of 100 billion US dollars is simply insulting to the value generated by G protein-coupled receptors.

In any case, the $2 million in Marjoli's hand always has to be given, he is not a laboratory-type researcher, and the $2 million he won was originally to prepare for the Nobel Prize, and the person he has seen so far is Yang Rui.

Even if Yang Rui did not accept him as a recommender, Marjoli still had no intention of giving up.

Yang Rui has a feeling that his prestige is full of white-collar materials.

He stood still and looked at Marcholi and asked, "Which organization sent the donation?"

"The Rockefeller Foundation. Marjoelli added: "Very clean. ”

Yang Rui's eyebrows were raised, although there are often conspiracy theorists who like to talk about Rockefeller and Rothschild, but in the scientific research community, the reputation of the Rockefeller family is indeed clean, much cleaner than the national projects of most countries.

Moreover, there is already a precedent for China to receive funding from the Rockefeller Foundation, and Peking Union Medical College has been taking money from the Rockefeller Foundation for decades. The Rockefeller Foundation is a world-renowned biology university, consisting of nearly 100 related research institutes, ranking in the top 10 in the world, and claiming to have more than 20 Nobel Prize winners.

"I'll think about it. Yang Rui still didn't promise.

Ma Qiaoli nodded helplessly, followed Yang Rui two more steps, and asked, "If I want to find you again, will I still come to the laboratory?"

"Let's go to school. Yang Rui smiled and said, "The school has opened, and I have to go through some procedures." ”
