Chapter 1453: The Pie Is Falling
At noon, Gu Qiang sandwiched a few pieces of braised pork with steamed buns, and ate it with a big bubble of tea in front of the incense burner, even if the lunch was over.
Recently, he often likes to think about problems in front of the incense burner, and he always feels that looking at the little clay figurine, his thinking seems to be more open.
Of course, the colleagues in the laboratory have other judgments, and they think that Gu Qiang is thinking about it.
The experimental dogs in the same group believe this statement the most, after all, they are the biggest victims of Gu Qiang's change of group this time.
Think about it, the experimental dogs of Gu Qiang's group, regardless of whether they are graduate students or post-recruited assistants, are actually still in the learning stage, and they cannot be regarded as characters in Yang Rui's laboratory, that is to say, in Yang Rui's laboratory, after they dedicate their youth and sweat, most of them still have to go their separate ways.
Whether the future is good or not, one is to depend on their own academic qualifications and hard conditions, whether they have a diploma from Peking University, whether they are handsome or not, and so on.
The other depends on what they learn in the lab.
If you're just learning ordinary skills, it's meaningless. What everyone can do, there is no shortage of people in other laboratories to do, so why bother to compile one?
You have to be a profound skill of egg peeling to add luster to your resume.
If you write on your resume that the skill of "peeling eggs" is profound, then even if you can't reach the level of Wang Liangcai, colleges and universities that want to do heredity in various places have to take a high look, and it is not so difficult to stay in Beijing. If you are a little more lucky and can leave your name in a high-end journal, the dividend will last until you are at least 40 years old.
The style of switching to in vitro culture is not so high.
Although the in vitro culture of cloned sheep is still difficult to make people vomit blood, everyone does not recognize it.
Nowadays, cytology is the dominant science, genetics is the cutting-edge, ion channels are advanced, what about in vitro culture?
Animal husbandry just doesn't sound good.
Engaged in aquatic products, that is Tong Dizhou's legacy, is the peak of the gathering of the great masters in China's biological world, who dares to say no, you just wait to be scolded every time you have a meeting. If you can also mix in various national conferences.
What is animal husbandry?
It's probably a little better than veterinarians, but is veterinarians considered academics?
Similarly, experimental dogs would rather die of exhaustion on the egg peeling table than waste their lives in the in vitro culture group.
It's a pity that Comrade Gu Qiang doesn't care what the little assistants think.
He can't be too busy with his own work, not to mention, he is not a confidant big brother. If scholars were empathetic, they would not be complained about by all walks of life.
Gu Qiang didn't even pay attention to the grievances of the experimental dogs, ate a steamed bun, drank the rest of the strong tea, and announced the start of work.
A few unnamed experimental dogs gathered aggrievedly, and some people held rice bowls and ate while walking.
"Eating less is good for your brain. Gu Qiang has completely entered the working state, habitually meows at the experimental design, and begins to distribute tasks.
Several assistants were helpless, secretly screaming bad luck, but they could only obediently put down the food and start the experiment.
Gu Qiang lowered his head, just looking at the experimental design.
He had re-copied the experimental design.
Copying is a bit of a waste of time, but it helps to organize your thoughts.
Gu Qiang also used this method to connect all the parts that Yang Rui had modified.
Through the text, look at the writer's thoughts, which is the basic ability to read literature, and Gu Qiang also analyzed Yang Rui's ideas.
"Our goal, first and foremost, is to reduce oocyte damage and ensure development through various means. The second is to establish an easy-to-operate system to ensure that in vitro culture is carried out in batches. Gu Qiang said two goals, and his scalp was a little numb.
The first item is just that, it is the main work of the in vitro culture group, and the second point is difficult.
Everyone knows that the manual operation of a single item is easy, but the formation of a system is difficult.
There is a lot of news about peasants building cars and airplanes, and some of them are quite good and have some characteristics according to the standards that can be used. However, who has ever heard that non-professionals can design a production line. There is no need for the complexity of airplanes, automobiles or bicycle production lines, it is to raise chickens and ducks, and there are not many that can achieve scientific standardization.
The experimental dogs also knew the difficulties during the period, and they all looked sad, feeling that the rest of their lives might be spent here.
Gu Qiang actually has the same anxiety.
He believed in Yang Rui, but he didn't believe in himself.
It is difficult to say whether research under the world is easy or difficult.
There is a difference in the forced grid, and there is a gap in the demand for resources, but if there are some small inventions and small discoveries under the limited resource conditions, it is just as difficult to make people want to cry.
For example, the research and development of bicycles, with bicycle-level funds, is not necessarily easier than cars.
If the conditions for solving the problem are limited, there are countless stories of Olympiad problems that stumped university professors.
Gu Qiang is willing to do in vitro culture, which is due to many considerations, not only to avoid vicious competition, but also to win Yang Rui's support and open up the direction he is better at, and there is also a faint idea of contributing to the team.
However, none of them is because in vitro culture is easy.
If it was really easy, Gu Qiang wouldn't want to do it.
What is the ability to pick up soft persimmons, and he has not reached the time to cheat funds.
Gu Qiang hid his anxiety well, gave orders as usual, and the preparations before the start of the experiment were done in an orderly manner.
"Let's start with the preparation of the culture medium. Gu Qiang didn't do it in order, and decided to start with the most time-consuming part.
Preparing the culture medium, like making a catalyst, is a very unreasonable job.
To put it simply, scholars know that some drugs may have beneficial results, but little is known about the interactions between the two, the effects of the three, the effects of the four, and the effects in the solution of many drugs...... Basically, you can only rely on trying.
At this point, adjusting the culture medium is similar to making a Chinese medicine prescription, and it is not possible to simply pile up useful drugs into it. The core of the experimental procedure is also to analyze the prepared culture medium, and then calculate it to reduce the number of attempts as much as possible.
Gu Qiang has done countless similar projects in the past - local universities have little funding and few resources, so they like to do labor-intensive and time-consuming projects.
With the mentality of the first step of the Long March, Gu Qiang started the first round of deployment.
As soon as he got started, Gu Qiang felt a little weird.
Fetal bovine serum, which is very easy to use, was originally proven to be effective. Epidermal growth factor, which is also very easy to use, seems to be effective. Insulin growth factor, which is also very easy to use, feels like it is easier to explain. The antioxidant is tried with vitamin C first, it seems to be easy to use, vitamin E is also easy to use, and anthocyanins are still easy to use......
After completing a set of their own individual experiments, Gu Qiang was a little confused at that time.
It's so smooth, it's a little strange for him.
Especially on the first day, the odds of Dashun are not great!
Gu Qiang was puzzled, looked at the experimental table and muttered for a long time, suddenly startled, and hurriedly said: "All instruments, all re-checked, Xiao Wang, you make another batch of raw materials to prepare, once the problem is fixed, we will retest." ”
The other experimental dogs didn't think much about it and went about doing things obediently.
In the laboratory, only the newcomers are happy that everything is going well, and the first thing that comes to the mind of the old people is that the instrument has gone wrong.
Otherwise, pie in the sky didn't hit me in the head.
