Chapter 605: Lasker Award

"Good morning, Professor!"

"Good morning!"

Smiling and nodding to his colleagues who passed by and greeted him, Professor Bruce slowly walked towards the door of Scripps Research Institute.

The wind blew with a slightly fishy smell, bringing the smell of the sea.

Professor Bruce loved the taste, and he loved it for twenty years, and to this day he vividly remembers the first time he came to Scripps Research Institute, he fell in love with the place almost instantly. I worked hard to stay, and then worked harder to become an important member of the world's best research institute, and to continue to enjoy the smoky sea breeze and the intoxicating blue sea and blue sky every day。。。。。。

"Professor, your letter for today. ”

As soon as she arrived at her office, in addition to her usual coffee, the secretary Dai Shanna sent several letters to Professor Bruce. Although it is already the information age, some necessary documents must still be physical, so as the director of the Department of Neurobiology at Scripps Research Institute, it is important to check these documents every day.

"Thank you. ”

Professor Bruce took the letter and said casually, "Daisanna, please help me brew a stronger coffee today." ”

"Okay professor. ”

Daisanna bowed her head slightly, and stepped back slightly.

Three envelopes, one for RI documents and two for the latest academic journals. Professor Bruce took a soft sip of his favorite coffee and opened one of the books as he opened the letter. There are more than 10 minutes before work, so you can enjoy a leisurely time.

"Jingle bell。。。。。。 ”

The phone on the table made Professor Bruce frown, and he glanced at the article with some reluctance, and then picked up the microphone: "Hi, I'm Bruce." ”

。。。。。。

"Haha, Tian, it's been a long time!"

After hearing the voice on the phone, Professor Bruce suddenly came to Jingshen. Professor Bruce has a very good impression of Tian Lu, who has graduated from the Scripps Research Institute and is in the international neurobiology community, not to mention that there are still many important research topics in the department and the other party.

After greeting each other happily, Professor Bruce smiled and asked, "Tian, is there something wrong with calling today?"

。。。。。。

"What? Is it true?"

After listening carefully to Tian Lu's words for more than ten seconds, Professor Bruce's eyes widened. He was very pleasantly surprised: "Then I really want to congratulate you, Tian!"

。。。。。。

"Haha, this is the honor you deserve! I know they have a lot of requirements, especially the various supporting materials, which are very detailed, and you are welcome if there is anything we need to do. Come out though. ”

。。。。。。

"Of course, I will send you as soon as the mail requests。。。。。。 ”

As soon as Professor Bruce put down the phone, Dai Shanna, who brought in the coffee, asked with some curiosity, "Professor, does Tian have any new ideas?"

As Professor Bruce's secretary and a researcher in the department, Dai Shanna was certainly aware of Tian Lu's existence, in fact. In the past two years, she has helped to deal with the correspondence between the department and Tian Lu.

"No, it's not. ”

Professor Bruce shook his head, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he sighed in a low voice, "I really didn't expect Tian to be nominated for that award so quickly。。。。。。。 ”

。。。。。。

More than ten hours later, in Kyoto, China, Fei Li, the dean of the School of Medicine of Kyoto Normal University, had just come to the door of the office when he saw Tian Lu waiting for him outside.

"Huh. Is Director Tian looking for me?"

Fei Li felt a little strange in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked with a smile.

"yes. ”

Tian Lu nodded and said with a smile: "There are some things I want to ask Dean Fei for help, but I don't know much on the phone, so I just came over early in the morning." Do you have time right now?"

"Yes, of course, hehe. Please come in. ”

Hurriedly opened the door with the key, Fei Li let Tian Lu into his office, and then nodded at the secretary who had been waiting with him for a long time: "Make me a cup of coffee, and then pour a cup of boiled water for Director Tian." ”

The two of them took off their coats when they entered the house. After putting down the things in the middle and then sitting down on the sofa, Fei Li immediately smiled and said, "Director Tian, there should be something important about coming to me in person today, right?"

"It's not a big deal. ”

Tian Lu blinked and said with a smile; It's just that two days ago, I received a phone call from the United States, who nominated me as a candidate for an award, but I needed very detailed supporting materials to prove the authenticity of some of my previous research results. Of course, as a member of Beijing Normal University, these materials also need some proof from the school, so 。。。。。。。 ”

"Candidates for the award?"

After Fei Li was stunned for a moment, his heart suddenly moved again, and then suddenly as if he remembered something, he said in surprise and joy: "Director Tian, I remember that you have always been not very interested in general awards. If you pay so much attention to it this time, and you need proof materials, is that the 。。。。。。 ”

"Yes, it's the Lasker Award for Basic Medicine!"

Tian Lu also knew that Fei Li had guessed, so he was not modest, and nodded calmly.

"Great!"

Under the agitation of the mood, Fei Li stood up suddenly!

The voice that almost trembled with excitement, coupled with the change in the expression on Fei Li's face at this time, made the secretary who had just come in with two cups suddenly startled, and quickly stabilized the swaying tray. Glancing at the dean quietly, the secretary hurriedly put the cup down and came out. The dean's emotions were so excited, it was conceivable that what he was talking about with Director Tian, the man of the year in the medical school, must be very important, and as a secretary, he naturally had to avoid it in a hurry.

Tian Lu was also taken aback by Fei Li's reaction, and hurriedly said, "Dean Fei, it's just a nomination, you 。。。。。。 It's just a nomination!"

The two successive emphasises did not calm Fei Li, he narrowed his eyes and said loudly: "It's just a nomination? Director Tian, what you said is too easy, isn't it? That's a nomination for the Lasker Award! Don't you know what this means?"

"Ugh。。。。。。 ”

Seeing Fei Li's solemn look, Tian Lu couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

The significance of this nomination. Of course Taro understands!

In fact, as the most important and influential biomedical award in the United States, the importance of the Lasker Award is probably very clear to any basic medical researcher or clinician who knows something about it, not to mention Tian Lu, who has been in the United States for eight years? As early as his residency in San Francisco, and even in the two years at Scripps Research Institute, Tian Lu learned about the Lasker Award under the influence of his colleagues. And every September, everyone will pay attention to the results of the Lasker Awards that year.

Yes, not only in the United States, but also in the world, the Lasker Awards have a great influence!

The Lasker Award is one of the world's top awards in the biomedical field and is awarded annually. It is mainly divided into basic medicine awards, clinical medicine awards, and of course, public service awards and special contribution awards, but for scientists and physicians, the most important awards are academic awards, that is, basic medicine awards and clinical medicine awards.

This is one of the top prizes after the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, and even in the hearts of some people, this award is not inferior to Nobel!

And more critically. The Lasker Prize is also known as the weather vane of the Nobel Prize in the medical community!

The Lasker Prize is announced in September, while the Nobel Prize is held during Nobel Week in October, so the two are very close to each other, and the winners of the Lasker Prize have a good chance of winning the Nobel Prize!

In fact, if you look at the last 50 years, the odds are as high as 30 percent!

After the surprise, Fei Li suddenly remembered something again, and hurriedly asked, "Director Tian." Are you nominated for a basic medicine award or a 。。。。。。 ”

"It's a basic medicine award. ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Tian Lu replied with a smile.

"Great!"

Fei Li shook his fist fiercely, and became excited again.

This question is quite exquisite, the Lasker Award is mainly divided into the Basic Medicine Award and the Clinical Medicine Award, although the weight of the two awards is the same, but they belong to different fields, but Fei Lilai, who has great expectations in his heart. The difference between these two awards is huge!

As the vane of the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, the proportion of Lasker Prize winners winning the Nobel Prize is indeed very high, more than 30 percent, but in this 30 percent. There is a big difference in the proportion of basic medicine awards and clinical medicine awards!

The proportion of winners of the Basic Medicine Prize winning the Nobel Prize again has reached almost 50 percent, while the proportion of clinical medicine prize winners winning the Nobel Prize again is even less than 10 percent!

That's a multiplier gap!

Just like the old-timers who won the clinical medicine prize ten years ago, when everyone hyped the possibility of winning the Nobel Prize, the media often paid attention to the so-called Nobel Prize vane, and showed a nearly 50% chance of making it clear, but they were very unprofessional and ignored one point, that is, the proportion of clinical medicine awards is very low.

So far, the Chinese have won the Lasker Prize for Public Service and the Clinical Medicine Award, but they have never won the Basic Medicine Award! In the end, the Nobel Prize is still most important to the Chinese people, and this is no exception even for Fei Li, a person in the medical field.

Tian Lu's chances of winning the Nobel Prize are very high, and this Fei Li is very clear, but he hopes that this time can be as early as possible, so when he heard the news of the Lasker Prize today, he was naturally a little excited.

You know, the chances of winning the Nobel Prize in the three years after winning the Lasker Prize are also very high!

"Dean, that's just a nomination!"

Finding that Fei Li's mood was high again, Tian Lu could only open his mouth and reluctantly emphasized again.

"I know it's a nomination!"

Fei Li laughed and said: "However, in terms of the influence of blood-brain barrier research, since you have been nominated, the chance of winning the award must be very high! Haha, Director Tian, what materials does the Lasker Award jury need you to provide? No, the school will fully support it。。。。。。 ”

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
