Chapter 767: Genetic Technology
"Do you want to study the hair and nails of the white-headed langur?"
Su Ming was slightly stunned, what are you studying?
"Professor Heisenberg didn't say that nails must be nails, but said that can be ......" The little boy Bai Chen hurriedly explained: "Nails are the easiest and largest cuticles. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Su Ming nodded, didn't speak, and a few thoughts turned around in his heart, and he had a feeling that he was not very good.
The three little monkeys who had been shaved didn't know when they ran out again, jumped on the big stone that looked like a throne where Su Ming was sitting, scratched their ears and cheeks, and squeaked and called in a small voice, as if they were letting Su Ming call the shots for them.
The white-haired langur is mostly black, much like a chimpanzee, only the shoulders and head, and the hair on the butt is white, and the white hair on the head is high, as if it has a white crown, or a white flame burning.
This monkey is very rare, even rarer than the giant panda, has existed on the earth for three million years, and only in China, and no living and specimens have been found abroad so far.
Genes are the deepest and most mysterious secrets of animals, a small piece of genes can contain a huge amount of information, and different genes can lead to completely different functions......
It can be said that genes determine the form of living things, why can birds soar in the sky, fish can dive deep into the sea, elephants have the strength of a thousand pounds, and poisonous snakes have dangerous venom...... It's all about genes.
Su Ming graduated from a medical university, and he knows a little about genetic research, which can be regarded as the high-end science of mankind so far, even if it is high-end such as nuclear technology and aviation technology, it cannot be compared; At the same time, due to the complexity of the genes themselves, it is also the slowest and shallowest science to be studied.
The study of genetic secrets has remained mostly at the level of reasoning and speculation.
And unlike practical science, genetic science, especially animal genetic science, because the research progress is too difficult, so there are very few that can be applied to practice at present, but it requires huge investment, and even has certain moral and ethical risks, so although the hype is very hot all over the world, there are very few institutions for actual research.
Su Ming listened to a lecture, the lecturer is an international genetic science bull, said a lot of speculation about genetics, Su Ming was most impressed by a passage, probably that is, if human beings can crack gene fragments, master gene replication technology and make new genes and original genes coexist benignly, then they can create a 'superman'.
The power is infinite, the sky is into the sea...... Gene technology is known as the realm of the gods, the study of the magic of the soul.
Back to the present, the foreigner professor is conducting biological research and wants to collect genes from white-haired langurs, which is understandable.
Su Ming still understands some superficial principles of genetic technology, the samples of genetic research must be stable and mature, the white-haired langur has survived on the earth for more than three million years, and the development so far, the genes can fully meet the requirements. The kind of 'new species' that are only a few hundred years old or thousands of years old, even including humans, are actually genetically unstable, or still developing and changing.
For example, there is a gap of less than 20,000 years between humans, primitive people and modern humans, but there are relatively large differences in form and function.
There are no white-haired langurs in foreign countries, and white-haired langurs are one of the national treasures of China, and foreign research institutions cannot easily obtain them, so foreigners let Bai Chen come to steal monkey hairs for research.
This series of experiences seems to be reasonable, although the behavior of the foreign professor is disgraceful, it is not too bad.
But Su Ming always felt that something was wrong, it seemed to be too sneaky.
He has come into contact with a number of foreigners, including academics and upper-class people, who have one thing in common: they are law-abiding.
It cannot be said that they are born with high moral character, but the education they received since childhood, and the social system in which they live, make them accustomed to abiding by the law. The cost of breaking the law is high.
Things like engaging female students and cheating on papers are definitely high-risk in foreign universities, and as long as they are discovered, they are basically a victory or defeat.
Therefore, foreign scientists generally do not do illegal acts for the sake of research.
They would rather spend more energy to contact and appeal, and use their influence and financial resources to introduce bills through the legislators they support, so as to change the laws that are not good for them, rather than breaking the law.
"Do you have any information on that professor?" Su Ming asked Bai Chen.
"Materials?" Bai Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Professor Eisenberg is a German, a visiting professor in our school, and he has no real position, oh yes, he only became a visiting professor this year." ”
The girl next to him tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Didn't you take a picture with Professor Eisenberg?" Show it to the leader. ”
"Oh yes, yes! I almost forgot. The young man hurriedly took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the screen and popped up the interface of the camera photo, found a photo, and then handed the mobile phone to Su Ming, "Leader, this is a group photo I took with Professor Eisenberg after a lecture." ”
Su Ming took the mobile phone, the background of the photo was a very common large classroom, Su Ming even remembered this classroom, this was the 303 lecture hall of the 2nd teaching of the Medical University, and when he was in school, he also listened to lectures in it.
In the center of the photo are two people, one is Bai Chen, grinning silly, and the other is a tall white male with short pale blonde hair, a face with typical Germanic edges and corners, wearing a close-fitting and straight suit, very handsome.
The Eisenburgh professor also smiled shallowly, like the gods in a medieval statue in the sunlight shining through the window.
"It's pretty handsome." Su Ming smiled, sent the photo directly to his mobile phone, then deleted the sending record and his mobile phone number, and finally returned the mobile phone to Bai Chen.
"Leader, look, I've said everything I need to say." Bai Chen was bold and asked in a low voice.
Su Ming thought about it, the two students, in the final analysis, didn't do anything bad, even if they were handed over to the police, it was nothing more than a criticism of education.
He is a lot more mature than before, and he often puts himself in his shoes.
Changing places, when I went to school, someone paid thousands of yuan, let me sneak to the zoo to cut some monkey hair, I can do it, it's fun and exciting, and I can make money, and I won't really hurt the animals, what can't I do? What's more, this kid has a girlfriend, boy, who doesn't want their girlfriend to have a better life?
"Do you know it's wrong?" Su Ming asked with a straight face. (To be continued.) )
