Chapter 335: Does it make sense?
Since Huang Mao is a lecturer, he must not have his own laboratory, the biggest possibility, that is, he is more valued in a certain laboratory, more liberalized, in other words, a scientific research worker, slightly higher than Yang Rui's status as the head dog in the Tang Concentration Laboratory. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The $100,000 funding was a fairly high-level project in China in the 80s. Tang Zhong's first-class professor can get such a project, and Wang Yong's first-class is relatively difficult, but there is still a chance to apply, but if he is an associate professor, such as Professor Fu that Yang Rui once heard, he has to fight hard to have a chance.
As for a lecturer like Huang Mao, applying for a $100,000 grant can usually be described as wishful thinking.
Of course, there are still opportunities for outstanding scientific researchers in some special times and special projects, but this is a story in the news network, and under normal circumstances, if a lecturer can get so much funding, he should also get the title of associate professor.
Otherwise, why stay in such a school. The flow of talent in the 80s was viscous like asphalt, but at the top, asphalt was flowing after all, and smart people always had smart ways to solve problems.
Scholars who can apply for a $100,000 research grant are welcome in any school, and even if Tsinghua University and Peking University have its persistence, they cannot go against the current. The ability to apply for funding is a harder condition than the ability to conduct scientific research itself, and no school dares to take it lightly.
Funding, a lot of funding, is the cornerstone of modern universities. Only schools with money and spirit are called institutions of higher learning, and only schools with money and no spirit can barely be called universities, and schools with spirit and no money are at most Yan'an Cadre Vocational School, and some things like Ma Zhe pretend to be humanities, which is a little more high-end than psychology.
In a few years, there will be a war between schools, and the conditions given will be better than the other. Cash, house, household registration, wife's job, parents' medical insurance, children's schooling, family car, etc., all include everything a professor needs in life.
In the future, when the Thousand Talents Plan is reached, it is directly proposed to give cash rewards of more than 1 million yuan to qualified experts and scholars......
Yang Rui privately considered that although lecturer Huang Mao cannot be said to be unvalued now, it is also valued among young people, and in a group of schools dominated by associate professors and professors, he is still in a pitiful accumulation period.
He looked at this particularly young future cow, like the owner of a fattening farm, looking at a skinny cow with the potential to grow into a thousand pounds.
After a pause, Yang Rui couldn't help but continue: "Mr. Huang can actually come to my laboratory to do experiments, I can't use up the funds every month, and the brand-new experimental instruments are actually a bit wasted." ”
In Yang Rui's laboratory, only Wei Zhenxue is full-time, Tu Xian occasionally uses it, but not much, and in terms of the scale of the laboratory he built, more than three full-time experimenters, plus more than three assistants, can be at ease.
Naturally, the most important thing is that Huang Mao's potential is unlimited and quite powerful.
Scientific research is always about talent, Yang Rui so far, he has consciously improved his talent compared to the past, but he doesn't know where the limit is. Huang Mao's talent has been proven by history, as a super bull who has become an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences for more than 20 years, he will produce value that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve every year.
Huang Mao obviously didn't put himself at such a high height, he is now an ordinary university teacher, maybe he stands out among young people, and he has an aura after going abroad for inspection, but that's all.
In fact, contrary to Yang Rui's understanding, Huang Mao, as a lecturer from the Workers' and Peasants' and Soldiers' University, has a narrower and narrower path in the university, the older generation of college students in the fifties and sixties looks down on the students of the Workers' and Peasants' and Soldiers' University, and the new generation of college students in the eighties also looks down on the students of the Workers' and Peasants' and Soldiers' University. was able to go abroad for investigation, not only because he showed outstanding ability, but most importantly, Huang Mao stepped on the stubble.
He took advantage of the fact that the college students who had not yet graduated after the resumption of the college entrance examination and his young age won the quota for overseas investigation, which may not be so easy to change to 84 years.
For the same reason, Huang Mao could not show his abilities in the laboratory.
Huang Mao, who had been to the United States, knew the power of a private laboratory, and under the stimulation of $100,000 in funding, Huang Mao couldn't help but ask: "Does your laboratory belong to Jielizen or yours?"
"Does it matter?"
Huang Mao was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything.
Yang Rui smiled and said, "Anyway, seeing is believing, you have seen it, how about it?"
Huang Mao nodded silently twice. The attraction of the laboratory to researchers is stronger than the temptation of beautiful women.
In order to enhance the attractiveness, Yang Rui added: "We now have the best gas and liquid chromatography mass spectrometers, DNA sequencing, purification and other instruments, and we have been able to complete most of the genomics experiments, and you will know after you come." ”
"Genomics?" Huang Mao felt that the term was a bit strange.
Yang Rui said it in English, and took out the idea of genomics again.
It's a hot topic at the end of the year, but now only a few people use a term like genomics.
However, this also shows that after Huang Mao returned to China, he lagged behind the development of the world's biotechnology.
Huang Mao himself realized this and asked, "Can Jielikang provide foreign books and periodicals?"
"There are some to buy, we can order them if you need them. ”
"Books are okay too?"
"Of course. ”
"How many can you order?" Foreign books and periodicals are quite expensive, and this is the case until the 21st century. A large, illustrated scientific book often costs more than $100, and for many smaller projects, the expense alone can be a headache.
In 1984, although the price of foreign language books would be cheaper, the price would only be higher if the logistics cost was included, and the libraries and scientific research institutions in China combined, that is, the Peking University Library, had the best quality of books.
Yang Rui had an idea as soon as his mind turned, and said: "If you decide to join, I guarantee the purchase quota of 100 books and 10 sets of periodicals." ”
He didn't say how much he wanted, 100 foreign books and 10 sets of periodicals were bought back to China, the cost was already more than 10,000 US dollars, and it was enough for Huang Mao to use it for a long time.
Huang Mao's two eyes suddenly widened.
He is still in the learning and accumulation stage, and most of the researchers are more or less in the early stage of research, so they also need to learn. In the 80s, there was a lot of waste to be rebuilt, the domestic resources were unimaginably poor, and the limited funds were especially insufficient even for theoretical research, and many researchers had to save their own money to buy books, and with two or three months of salary, it was not uncommon for them to bring back a second-hand book from abroad, which affected family life, harmony between husband and wife, and human affairs, which was even more embarrassing.
Huang Mao went to the United States and came back, naturally disgusted by the harsh conditions at home, 100 books may not improve much, but it is enough to immerse him in it, so as not to waste precious time.
"When...... Easy to see?" Huang Mao's throat was a little dry.
Just now, Yang Rui was inviting Huang Mao and asked him when he was free, but now it has become Huang Mao's time to take the initiative to invite.
Yang Rui smiled secretly and said, "It's okay tomorrow." ”
"What are you going to do tomorrow?" Director Qin walked over with a laugh, patted Huang Mao's shoulder, and asked with a smile: "How is it, does it make sense?"
Huang Mao turned his head, suddenly a little embarrassed, and wanted to ask if it made sense, it seemed that he was explained by Yang Rui.
