Chapter 601: Nobel Prize Week

During this year's National Day holiday, Tian passed by quite leisurely.

The election of the chairman of the neurosurgery branch naturally attracted a lot of congratulations, including the new director of the hospital, as well as other leaders of the school, which also made Tian Lu's prestige in the Second Affiliated Hospital rise to a height again.

In the past two years, the name Tian Lu has become a symbol of top doctors in all the departments of the Second Affiliated Hospital!

The youngest department director of the hospital, the youngest chairman of the committee, the only academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the only scientist who has won the first prize of national science and technology in two fields, these titles have given Tian Lu a dazzling halo, and the development of neurosurgery in recent years has been seen by everyone, which also proves that Tian Lu is definitely the kind of genuine top doctor and leader.

It can be said that within the scope of the Second Affiliated Hospital, Tian Lu's prestige is not much more than that of the dean's secretary, even in the medical school or even the headquarters of Beijing Normal University, this name is probably also a level compared with those old academicians who have worked in the school all their lives, and even slightly exceeded.

At the general election of the neurology branch in late September, Tian Lu successfully entered the professional committee closely related to neurosurgery and directly became a standing committee member. According to many people's private statements, because of Tian Lu's achievements in the basic and clinical fields, if he was not in neurosurgery and had just been elected as the chairman-elect, I am afraid that it would not be impossible to become the vice chairman!

In this era when science is flourishing and academic status is getting higher and higher. Tian Lu, who has just returned to China for seven years, has created a miracle......

After spending this busy September, Tian Lu chose to rest for the National Day.

Take a thorough break.

Now it's past the time to work hard, even if the institutions in Tian Lu's hands are getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more titles on his head, but he knows the trade-offs and does not hesitate to give up most things, such as various social titles, and countless opportunities to be on TV and newspapers, just to reduce his burden, and on the premise of ensuring his quality of life and physical health, he leaves as much time as possible for what he wants to do.

It's a very easy one. It's also a wise choice.

And once you wait for the National Day. Tian Lu will have to get busy again.

But this time, his busyness is not limited to the hospital, he has just been elected as the chairman-designate of the Department of Neurosurgery, and he must fulfill his relevant obligations.

From October to the end of the year before the festival. In just four months. Tian Lu must preside over the re-election of the three groups of the Neurosurgery Professional Committee. He even had to preside over the re-election of the Youth Committee, and he also had to participate in three academic conferences hosted by the Committee!

All seven events are held outside of Kyoto City. Even if it only takes two days at a time, Tian Lu has to spare half a month to make special arrangements, which was absolutely unthinkable before.

However, this is also the price that Tianlu must pay.

What's more, every time Tian Lu attends a meeting, Tian Lu is not simply to pay, to be precise, there is a gain. Not only can you get to know more and younger excellent neurosurgeons, but at least you can have more in-depth exchanges with the local provincial and municipal committee members to discuss possible future cooperation and specific plans.

As many people often say, the higher the academic status and the greater the power in the hands, the less likely it is to fight on the front line of scientific research and work. The same is true for Taro, but what Taro does is significantly more meaningful and rewarding than most others.

In fact, to the extent that Tian Lu is now, staying in the laboratory every day, or staying on the operating table every day is definitely the least efficient choice, how to use the resources in his hands, how to integrate more resources from the outside world for himself, and serve his own research projects is more important, after all, with systematic help, it really doesn't take him too much time to formulate scientific research plans and specific plans.

It can be said that the existence of the decision support system for resident physicians is destined to take completely different paths before and after Tian Lu, and it is also different from that of ordinary scientists, and this is the reason why he must establish a huge scientific research base as soon as possible and occupy a high position in these academic organizations......

Just during the National Day holiday, the 2020 Nobel Prize Week began.

The first award to announce the results of October 5 was the Physiology and Medicine Prize, three scientists from Germany, RI and the United States were awarded for their research results in the field of cell and molecular science, and within two hours of the news was released, several people called Tian Lu, and even his student Dong Qiang, who was evasive when he called, and it took a long time to mention it, with a posture of comforting the tutor, which made Tian Lu a little crying and laughing.

On the one hand, the recognition of the Nobel Prize in China, or the desire to obtain the status of a major scientific and technological country is getting stronger and stronger, and it can be said that from zhèngfu to ordinary people are in the same mood. On the other hand, Tian Lu's achievements are indeed outstanding, and compared with other top scientists in China, his research achievements in the field of basic research do not only have the most advanced international level, but also a professional epoch-making discovery, and are definitely worthy of a Nobel Prize in terms of value.

Therefore, it is understandable that everyone hopes that Tian Lu will win the award.

Everyone is like this, so they naturally thought that Tian Lu was also like them, eagerly looking forward to winning the award, so after the results were announced, many people called to comfort them. But what they didn't expect was that for this year's Nobel Prize, Tian Lu really never thought about it!

Where is the Nobel Prize so easy to win?

Besides, Tian Lu's award can only be based on the blood-brain barrier theory, and he really made the final decision and finally determined his theoretical system at the beginning of this year, but at that time, the nomination for the Nobel Prize has already ended!

In fact, at the same time as the announcement of the Nobel laureates, the nominations for the next year's Nobel Prize will also begin, and the call for candidates will not end until the beginning of 2021. So even if everyone says that Tian Lu has hope or will definitely win the award, it will be next year at the earliest, and it will be a matter of calling this year to comfort.

In any case, no matter how lively the Nobel Prize is in the media, this year has nothing to do with Tian Lu, so naturally he will not pay much attention to these things, in his opinion, even if he has hope of winning the award, I am afraid it will be at least two or three years later, if those judges are cautious, maybe it will be difficult to even get a nomination.

It's just that like everyone else, Tian Lu also took it for granted......

On the other side of the ocean, in the Scripps Research Institute in San Diego, in Professor Bailey's office, after learning the results of the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, the gray-haired neuroscientist, a former Nobel laureate, had a slight regret on his face at this time.

"The three scientists really deserve their awards, but ......"

Professor Bailey shook his head and sighed: "I still think that Feees's achievements in the field of stem cells are greater, and they have a greater impact on the discipline, but it's a pity that ......."

"It's a pity that he came to a conclusion a little late!"

Pouring Professor Bailey a cup of coffee, Alice said with a smile.

"Hehe, that's good. ”

Gently picking up the coffee in his hand, Professor Bailey nodded: "The Nobel Prize jury likes those old, long-proven achievements, because then you can avoid fewer mistakes! Unless your scientific research results are of special significance, so that those people can't ignore them, it is possible to win the award in a very short time!"

"Like Tian's achievement?"

Alice raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile.

"It's like Tian's achievement!"

Professor Bailey took a sip of coffee, then smiled slightly, nodded at Alice, and said, "Today's coffee is great, thank you!"

Alice smiled, suddenly tilted her head sideways and asked with a smile: "Professor, do you say that this year's Nobel Prize Tian is one of the candidates?"

"How do I know that?"

Professor Bailey laughed and said: "You should also know very well that the list of Nobel Prize candidates will not be announced to the public at all, if you really want to know, then expect yourself to live long enough!"

The Nobel Prize does not accept self-nomination, but can only be recommended by designated special groups, such as former Nobel laureates, designated university professors, members of the Nobel Prize jury, etc. There are at least hundreds of candidates each year, and who is on this list is not allowed to be announced to the outside world unless it waits until a 50-year secrecy period has passed. Therefore, anyone who sees or hears who has been nominated to become a candidate for the Nobel Prize is a complete fool.

Alice, who knew him well, didn't care about Professor Bailey's joke, and after smiling, she got up and left the office. Because of the announcement of the Nobel Prize list, she and the professor have been chatting for nearly half an hour, and it is natural that she will go back to work at this time.

After Alice left, the smile on Professor Bailey's face faded, and after a long silence, he suddenly walked to his bookcase, took out a folder of two from it, and then sat back in his chair to look at it.

Both of these were the same documents that Professor Bailey had just received, and they were the same documents he had received last year.

His eyes wandered over the two papers, and Professor Bailey's eyes flickered with hesitation, as if he was trying to think about something, but it was difficult to make a decision. At the beginning of this year, Bailey hesitated after Tian Lu's review was published, and at this moment, as he did then, his heart was entangled again...... (To be continued......)
