Chapter 3 Teaching Assistants
"It's been decided for a long time, right?"
In an office at Heinz General Hospital, young surgeon Jack? Steinway said with a disdainful face: "Although I respect Professor Liszt and acknowledge his great achievements in the field of surgical sterilization, ...... The current authority on disinfection technology is obviously Mr. Huntelaar, right? In addition, the experimental data we have accumulated over the past year or so have shown that brushing hands before surgery not only does not make it easier for bacteria to retain, but also greatly reduces the number of bacteria......"
"But ......"
Beside him, another surgeon, Ma Sha, had a face full of unswerving.
As a surgeon at Heinz General Hospital, Massa certainly had great respect for Mr. Huntelaar, but that didn't mean he no longer admired Professor Liszt, so he naturally became a little angry when he heard this disdain from his colleague - for the simple reason that Jack studied in Heidelberg, Germany, and this surgeon studied in Edinburgh!
Even if they are fellow Americans, this subtle difference still creates a difference in their emotional affiliation.
However, as Jack said, a large number of experimental data showed that preoperative brushing of hands must be beneficial, even if Massa admired Professor Liszt no matter how much he denied this. So even if he felt uncomfortable at this moment, Massa really couldn't refute anything. After all, Liszt did make a mistake on this issue, and he took it for granted that brushing his hands would make it easier for bacteria to retain, turning over an empirical mistake......
"Jack!"
Just when the atmosphere between the two became a little awkward, a voice suddenly came in from outside the door: "Mr. Huntelaar invites you to come to his office, right now!" ”
"Okay, I'll be right over!"
Both of them were shocked at the same time, but Jack? Stanway immediately stood up excitedly, and a flash of gloom flashed in Massa's eyes. For the past two years, Mr. Huntelaar has been calling young doctors to his office. Either you are assigned some research tasks or you are given some study materials, but without exception, everyone can get some benefits from it. So now there is a consensus in the Department of Surgery that whoever Mr. Huntelaar calls to his office most frequently means who he values the most!
Compare to Massa. Jack? Steinway goes there a lot more!
Jack? Steinway, of course, didn't pay attention to his colleague's careful thoughts, and he trotted over to John? Mr. Huntelaar's office, knocked on the door and walked in: "Mr. Huntelaar, are you looking for me?" ”
"Well, please take a seat."
John, who had just arrived at the hospital, stood up and warmly beckoned Jack to sit down.
John is very interested in these energetic young doctors in the hospital, especially those like Jack? Steinway is a physician who has both a "modern" medical education and a staunch support for his own medical philosophy. He poured quite a bit of attention into it. In the past two years, on the one hand, John has been slowly building up their systematic concept of modern surgery, and on the other hand, he has made great efforts to improve their research and creativity by using some basic research projects, such as sterilization specifications, basic surgical operations, and local anesthesia, and at the same time investing a lot of money in laboratory animals, autopsies, and consumables.
Of course. These young physicians did not disappoint John either.
In two or three years, the Department of Surgery at Heinz General Hospital has initially established a truly modern concept. Including aseptic technology, anesthesia technology, blood transfusion technology, etc., all began to take root in their hearts under John's strong encouragement, and the concepts of shock and perioperative period also began to slowly sprout in the past two years.
What's more......
The Department of Surgery at Heinz General Hospital today is not what it was when it first opened. In the past two years, young physicians have been arriving from Europe, and Thomas has selected two outstanding young people from the local Columbia College. The performance is quite good, and at the same time, the scale of the surgery has been expanded to about 20 people, including three anesthesiologists, which can be said to have begun to take shape. Perhaps more than 100 years from now, there will be tens or hundreds of surgeons in every county hospital in China. There were more than a dozen anesthesiologists, but at the end of the 19th century, it was remarkable to have 20 surgeons in a hospital, both in Europe and North America......
Compared with other top surgeons of their time, these young people may be far inferior in experience and understanding of diseases, especially in surgery, a discipline that requires a lot of practical experience, but in John's opinion, this is not important at all, because they have a surgical philosophy that is ahead of their time, a solid foundation and the best environment for growth, as long as they are given enough time and opportunity, it is only a matter of time and opportunity to become a blockbuster!
For example, Jack in front of you? Stanway is a young man that John is very optimistic about.
Graduated from Heidelberg, a prestigious school in Germany, he has received rigorous laboratory training and clinical training, and more importantly, this kid is one of John's staunchest supporters - not the blind followers of others, but really supported by his own ideas! In the past year or so, Jack? Steinway's research on surgical sterilization and perioperative management slowly came into John's sights, and he has now been listed as one of the key cultivation subjects.
Looking at John with a calm face, Jack? Steinway asked, "Sir, is there something you called me for?" ”
"Hmm."
Nodding, John smiled and said, "I've already read the paper you wrote on disinfection practices, it's pretty good, which journal do you plan to publish it in?" ”
"If I could, I'd like to post it in the New Medical Journal!"
Hesitated, Jack? Steinway replied.
"Oh?"
John's eyebrows furrowed, and he shook his head with some surprise and smiled: "Jack, don't worry about my opinion, say your own thoughts!" And to be honest, the New Medical Journal doesn't need me to provide them with a manuscript now, your paper is of high quality, and it can be submitted to better journals in Europe! ”
There was not the slightest reluctance on his face, and John's expression was natural when he said these words.
Edward and his "New Medical Journal" really don't need John to organize the manuscript, although it has been less than two years since its inception, but after the frequent bombardment of John's previous heavyweight papers, "New Medical Journal" has attracted the attention of many people, and at the same time, coupled with the generous manuscript fee, doctors in the United States have also regarded it as one of the submission objects. Of course, because the journal is too short to be founded, the New Medical Journal is certainly not comparable to the Lancet, German Medicine and other journals, and the gap is still very large, but because of the papers published by John, a well-known surgeon, in each issue, and other basic top journals in the United States, such as the Journal of the American Medical Association and the Boston Journal of Medicine and Surgery, it is still possible.
Jack? Steinway shook his head and said seriously: "Sir, I have already thought about it, and it will be published in the New Medical Journal!" ”
"Hehe, okay."
Seeing that the other party was indeed not reluctant, John naturally smiled and nodded.
After chatting with Jack for a few words about the topic that his dissertation was already working on, John suddenly said, "Jack, I just saw your application to become a teaching assistant in medical school, are you sure you want to become a teacher?" You know, although the task of teaching is not heavy, it will definitely have some impact. ”
"Sir, I've thought about it!"
Jack? Steinway's heart was shocked, and he immediately replied eagerly.
Everyone knows that it has been officially named Al? The school at Huntelaar Medical College is about to start enrollment, and classes will start in September this year. John had said more than two years in advance that people who were interested in a part-time teaching job had already begun to prepare, and Jack was one of them. Although the number of students enrolled in the first year will be small, each professor should have a teaching assistant, which is a decision that Mr. Huntelaar has long said.
He applied as a teaching assistant in anatomy and surgery.
In both fields, Jack himself was still very confident, especially after reading the two textbooks written by Mr. Huntelaar, and he was even more determined to win the position of teaching assistant in this surgery, and even better if he could win anatomy. It's just that surgery is okay, Jack has almost completely accepted John's ideas, and there is naturally no problem in talking about it, but in terms of anatomy, seeing the novel ideas and theories in the book, Jack, who is quite confident in his own aspects, is also a little vague......
"Then let's give it a try!"
John got up and walked over to Jack, patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "There is still half a year before school starts, if you want to become an anatomy assistant, then write a lesson plan for Professor Delanene to see......" (To be continued.) )
