Chapter 30, National Laboratories
As one of the top universities in China, Yanhuang University also covers an extremely vast area in such an international metropolis as the imperial capital, with a total area of nearly 2 million square meters.
Yanhuang University covers such a wide area, in addition to the campus used for teaching, in fact, a large part of the place is used for scientific research, with a large number of top scientific laboratories at home and abroad, these laboratories are not only used by Yanhuang University, but also directly belong to the state, and the required funds are all borne by the state.
The Huaxia National Laboratory for Disease Control and Prevention is one of many top laboratories, and the person in charge of this laboratory is Academician Liu Yi, a world-renowned biovirologist, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, honorary professor of many famous universities in the world, and academician of many countries in the world.
In the laboratory, at this time, Li Fu was wearing white overalls, and was controlling the electron microscope in the laboratory to observe biological viruses, the whole person was very serious and serious, meticulous in his work, and very skilled in controlling the instrument at the same time, which made Liu Yi, who had been observing from the side, nod with satisfaction.
Originally, Li Fu was only a third-year student, and it stands to reason that he could not participate in such an important laboratory, and it could even be said that he could not even enter, after all, this laboratory was a national-level laboratory, and the instruments and equipment in it were very precious.
Many instruments and equipment are even only a few in the world, which are things that money can't buy, not to mention that the research projects and topics here are national-level topics, many of which require the highest level of secrecy, plus all kinds of viruses and bacteria stored here, etc., any kind of release is enough to brew terrible consequences.
Therefore, if you don't reach a certain level and level, you can't enter this laboratory at all, which is not something that Li Fu can enter as a student in college.
However, since the last time Liu Yi asked Li Fu to talk in detail, Liu Yi found that Li Fu is not simple, and his knowledge level in biotechnology has far surpassed the stage of undergraduates, and can even be said to be comparable to ordinary biological scientists, especially in the field of biological virology, which Liu Yi is good at, Li Fu has been able to talk to Liu Yi fluently, and has a very deep foundation.
And Liu Yi also found that Li Fu not only has a very deep foundation in biology, but also has a refreshing insight in many aspects, Li Fu also has a very deep foundation in other disciplines such as physics, chemistry, and computer science, giving Liu Yi the feeling that Li Fu is an all-round genius.
Such a genius, Liu Yi naturally cherished it, and he also checked Li Fu's profile before, knowing that Li Fu studied very hard during college, and his grades have always been among the best, and he is also quite good in terms of personality, so Liu Yi directly expressed his intention to Li Fu to accept apprentices.
Li Fu was naturally overjoyed, having a master of science like Liu Yi as his mentor was something that countless people couldn't ask for, and there was no hesitation, so Li Fu agreed. successfully became a student of Liu Yi and a member of this national laboratory, and was able to freely go out of this well-guarded international laboratory.
"Tsk, it is worthy of an international-level laboratory, and the resolution of a very ordinary microscope can be so clear, and the country does not seem to be just shouting slogans for scientific research."
While carefully observing the biological viruses under the microscope, Li Fu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, there is not enough funds for scientific research, and there is no enough advanced scientific research equipment, which is basically empty talk, and for scientists who study biology, a good microscope is particularly important.
Generally speaking, to measure the quality of a microscope, or to compare the effective magnification ability of a microscope, is to look at the resolution rather than the magnification that everyone says.
Now the electron transmission electron microscope in Li Fu's hand has a maximum magnification of about 2 million times and a limit resolution of about 1 nanometer, but such an electron microscope is the most ordinary microscope in this national laboratory.
Li Fuke heard from his brothers and sisters that there is a super electron microscope in the laboratory, with a resolution of 0.5 angstroms (angstry, foreign name?). ngstrom or ANG, or ?, is a commonly used unit of length in crystallography, atomic physics, supermicrostructure, etc., transliterated as "angstrom", and the symbol is ?, 1?is equal to 10^(-10)m, that is, one-tenth of a nanometer).
"It's no wonder that our science and technology in China have been rising over the years, and the country's investment in scientific research is still very willing.
It is no wonder that Li Fu is here like Grandma Liu has entered the Grand View Garden, when he first entered this national laboratory, Li Fu was already deeply attracted by the environment here, especially the various advanced scientific research instruments and equipment here, which made Li Fu want to drool at a glance.
Ever since Li Fu decided to shift his main energy to the road of science and technology, Li Fu has been thinking about where to start, and after thinking about it, he feels that it is better to start from the biomedical major he studied in college.
Because I mainly studied biomedical science in college, starting from this field, it is not surprising to make achievements in a short period of time, at most I will be named a genius or something like that.
However, if in other fields, if Li Fu made very amazing achievements all of a sudden, the world would find it strange and unreasonable, which was unacceptable.
However, if you want to make achievements in the field of biological sciences, especially in a short period of time, it is basically impossible to achieve without good tools and good mentors, and the most dependent on the research of biotechnology is a powerful microscope.
And in addition to a good microscope, the samples of biological viruses, the qualifications of experiments, etc., these problems have also been bothering Li Fu, making Li Fu feel like a headless fly, obviously he has learned a lot of advanced scientific and technological knowledge of the super civilized Han Science and Technology Empire in his brain.
However, there is no condition and place for Li Fu to conduct experiments and verification, so he can only be in a hurry, and he can only continue to verify and compare by studying various books in the library, especially some papers published by those cutting-edge scientists.
However, now all the problems have been solved with Li Fu joining this world-class laboratory, which not only has a variety of advanced scientific instruments and equipment, but also stores almost all the viruses found by humans in the virus database of this laboratory.
As for issues such as experimental qualifications, it goes without saying that ordinary experiments only need to be filed and registered in the laboratory, and major laboratories can find Liu Yi to sign, and there is no need for any complicated application and approval.
Coming to such a place, Li Fu is naturally like a winged to take off, and in a very short period of time, he has become familiar with the management regulations of this world-class laboratory, figured out the management rules and systems here, and quickly mastered the operation of various instruments and equipment.
In addition to these, Li Fu's strong learning ability, profound foundation and skills soon conquered the scientific staff around him, so that one by one people who originally felt that Liu Yi suddenly recruited an undergraduate student felt that something was inappropriate to shut up, and they were also impressed by Li Fu, and even Liu Yi was quite satisfied with Li Fu.
Li Fu is modest, cautious, cautious, super learning ability, strong jumping thinking ability, etc., no matter from which point of view, Li Fu is a very good biological scientist seedling, like a piece of jade, as long as a little carving, it will soon be able to shine to the world.
In a short period of time, Li Fu has been able to truly integrate into the atmosphere of this laboratory, follow the rhythm of others, while assisting other scientists in the laboratory to do some relatively simple scientific research work, and at the same time also use the equipment, instruments and other conditions in the laboratory to study some of his favorite topics in his spare time.
For example, now, Li Fu is researching to fight poison with poison, wanting to find a virus that can deal with HIV without any impact or harm to the human body, which is also the question that Li Fu raised to Liu Yi on the subject, and Liu Yi is also quite supportive of Li Fu's research in this area, and has given great convenience.
HIV, or the human immunodeficiency virus, is a virus that causes a deficiency in the human immune system. In 1981, the human immunodeficiency virus was first discovered in the United States. It is a lentivirus that infects cells of the human immune system and is a type of retrovirus.
There are four known strains of HIV, namely M, N, O, and P, each with a different origin, of which the most widespread M and N have long been confirmed to be from chimpanzees, but the rarer O and P have only been confirmed to be from gorillas in southwestern Cameroon.
The human immunodeficiency virus is about 120 nanometers in diameter, roughly spherical, mainly attacking the human body's helper T lymphocyte system, once it invades the body's cells, the virus will be integrated with the cells for a lifetime, and the human body loses its immune function.
