Chapter 5 Help

In April 1912, the Titanic sank as in history. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

John had no interest in alerting Morgan or anyone else, but just silently watched as the ship sank into the Atlantic Ocean and caused a huge stir in the world. During his time back in New York, he focused all his energy on the expansion of his company and the development of the school.

Of course, as an "inventor", he is still exerting great power.

The zippers used on clothes and pants, band-aids, sound movies, etc., maybe John himself could not make these things on his own, but as a big capitalist, he has a large number of elites under his command to serve it! As long as there is money and someone, plus the drawings drawn by himself, he can naturally "invent" everything he wants! Especially when the major laboratories under the Huntelaar consortium are on the right track and a perfect R&D system has been established, a lot of things are basically decided - there is no doubt that the Huntelaar consortium will become the forefront of the development of applied science and technology!

As for the work in the hospital, John rarely attended.

It's not that he doesn't want to continue his work as a surgeon, but with the spread of reports about his richest man in the United States, it is almost impossible to see people and perform surgeries in a stable manner. Not to mention that the high-ranking officials of Anna and the Huntelaar consortium would not allow it, even those in the Huntelaar Hospital would probably not agree. Although John's visit will attract great attention, it will certainly bring chaos to the order of diagnosis and treatment......

In desperation, John had no choice but to dedicate his energy and time to the Huntelaar Medical College.

Until now, John holds the position of Professor of Surgery at the School of Medicine and is also a Professor of Physiology at the school. In order not to be told that he was in a pit and not, John finally began his teaching career in earnest after being sure that he would not leave the United States easily in the next few years: four classes a week in surgery, while also collaborating with others in the field of physiology and conducting a series of research.

Surgery is John's old profession, so naturally there is nothing difficult.

Surgery in 1912, both in Europe and North America, had already established its place in the field of medical science. Only a very small number of physicians at the forefront of "science" still dismiss surgeons as "simple-minded" people - no better than inferior primitive craftsmen.

It's just that under the premise of the rapid development of surgery, this argument is hardly recognized.

Almost all the surgeons put on white coats and hand brushers, hats and masks, patients and operating tables were also covered with white sheets, hospitals with conditions set up disinfection rooms, and unconditioned instrument basins were filled with disinfectant to clean surgical instruments. Everything is quietly getting neat and tidy, and surgery is no longer a random task. These reforms have succeeded not because of a radical change in surgeons, but because of an inexorable change in medicine and the relationship between medicine and scientific inquiry. Both medical schools and quacks are the product of early medical dogmatism, and have begun to lose their market in the face of scientific facts......

There is no doubt that the status of surgeons has been elevated like never before!

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why John has not produced any strong results in recent years, but he has been more and more recognized by surgeons, and even faintly has stepped onto the altar of surgeons!

Because in the past 20 years, John and his subordinates and partners have not only perfected surgical disinfection technology, discovered blood group and blood transfusion technology, improved general anesthesia and "invented" local anesthesia, but also fully blossomed in various fields such as debridement, vascular anastomosis, abdominal surgery, basic surgical operations, etc., completely laying the foundation for the development of surgery!

One could even say, John? Huntelaar alone has pushed surgery forward by ten years!

In fact, in terms of the impact on surgery, John's role is not only ten years, his appearance not only promoted the progress of surgical technology, but more importantly, completely laid a "scientific" imprint on this original "craft"! In addition to those "cutting-edge" surgical techniques, John combined surgery with physiology, anatomy and pathology at the University of Berlin Medical School and Huntelaar Medical School, and used the progress of basic medicine to promote the development of surgical technology, and then used the progress of surgery to promote the development of basic medicine......

Even if John does not perform a single operation in the future, his status as a master surgeon will not be shaken.

As for the study of physiology, it can be regarded as a development direction for John. To put it bluntly, physiology is a discipline that studies the normal functions of the human body, and it is also an experimental discipline, the most important thing is to conduct animal experiments. Through animal experiments, normal physiological functions are studied, and then extended to humans.

For the whole of medicine, anatomy and physiology are undoubtedly the most basic, and physiology is the top priority. So the famous French physiologist Clutt? Bernar would have said that medicine is the science of disease, while physiology is the science of life. So the latter is more universal than the former, which is why physiology is necessarily the basis of medical science.

As a traverser, John certainly won't let go of the big course of physiology.

Therefore, in addition to his old practice of surgery, he began to cooperate with the Department of Physiology of the Medical School for a long time, conducting a series of research, and accumulating an experimental foundation for his upcoming theory. The most important thing in a short period of time is undoubtedly the homeostatic concept of the internal environment......

All the life activities of the human body are carried out in a certain environment.

The natural world is the external environment, and the environment in which the cells in the body directly live, that is, the extracellular fluid outside the cell and in the body is the internal environment. Physiologist Klutt? In his later years, Bernard, through logical reasoning, put forward the concept of constancy of the internal environment, believing that the body lives in a constantly changing external environment and a relatively stable internal environment. As a result, the body can survive well in the face of changing external environments.

More than ten years later, another American physiologist will put forward the concept of homeostasis of the internal environment, that is, the physical and chemical properties of the internal environment, such as the chemical composition, pH value, osmotic pressure and temperature of the extracellular fluid, are all important factors affecting the normal life activities of cells. The normal life activities of cells require the concentration of various physical and chemical factors and various substances in the internal environment to maintain a dynamic and relatively constant within a certain range.

This will be an extremely important concept for physiology.

The concept of homeostasis in the internal environment plays an important role in the study of the basic characteristics of life activities and the regulation of human body functions, and also occupies an extremely important position in physiology......

……

John's life was leisurely, but some people were busy every day.

For example, the high-ranking officials of the Huntelaar consortium, whether they agreed with John's statement or not, had to strictly follow his orders, and began another round of acquisitions and expansions in a frenzy; Another example is New Jersey's Governor Woodrow? Wilson is also working hard for the Democratic candidacy in June.

For the Democrats, this year is the best time to do it!

The first two Republican presidents, Roosevelt and Taft, were engaged in a war of words because of disagreements. Taft is the incumbent president, and naturally has a huge following; As the previous president and one of the most successful presidents in American history, Roosevelt's influence should not be underestimated, so it is conceivable that the two sides have long been inseparable within the Republican Party.

Wilson, who coveted that position, knew that this was his best chance!

However, if he wants to compete with the Republicans who are infighting, Wilson must first get the Democratic candidacy, which is not an easy task. Especially under the intentional or unintentional promotion of Mr. Huntelaar, the money election of Americans seems to have a tendency to rise in advance, and now there is no huge dollar support, let alone the selection of the president of the United States, even the qualifications of the party candidates, don't even think about it!

For the matter of campaign finance, Wilson also had a headache.

Maybe......

"Should I visit him?"

After thinking about it for several days, Wilson finally made up his mind. Although the gentleman had supported Roosevelt and Taft, his support had dropped considerably in the last two years, and he had maintained a relatively close relationship with him, a friendship that had begun with Wilson since his college teaching days, and perhaps he could really ask for some help......
