As early as when he was in Princeton, Lu Zhou had considered this problem.

As his research gradually enters unfamiliar territory, sooner or later, the content of his research will conflict with traditional ethical concepts.

And all this is inevitable.

After all, the hierarchy of the system covers so many subjects, and he can't just study mathematics for the rest of his life.

After finishing the conversation with Yang Xu, Lu Zhou opened his laptop, and after a brief moment of thinking, he excerpted some excerpts from Professor Grantster's paper and wrote a review paper on "cryonics dormancy technology", in which he clearly stated his position on supporting the research.

“…… Compared with the short life of human beings, how to spend a long time in stellar travel in light years is a more thought-provoking topic than how to accelerate spacecraft to sub-light speeds. ”

"If we compare the Earth to the cradle of our civilization, then one day our footprints will reach other star systems."

"It may be a little early to think about this day now, but I think that for the long term, mastering this technology is absolutely necessary for our civilization......"

With his fingers tapping on the keyboard, Lu Zhou conceived and perfected the paper.

Although he is not obligated to explain his motives for engaging in a study, the high ground of public opinion is like this, if you don't occupy it, then someone else will occupy it, and use it to cause trouble for you.

With his current influence in academia, if he wants to engage in research, even if someone is against it in his heart, he probably won't stand up and speak out against him...... At least at home.

Therefore, before the discussion and protest against this technology spread abroad, it is necessary for him to use his influence to direct the attitude of the domestic academic community towards this technology in his favor.

Pressing the Enter button on the keyboard, Lu Zhou checked the paper from beginning to end, and finally nodded with satisfaction, and then threw the paper to the mailbox of the editorial office of the journal run by Jinling University.

Since he returned to China, the influence of Jinling University's school-run journals has increased a lot along with his value, especially after the success of the controlled nuclear fusion project, which has reached its peak with the prestige of Jinling University.

Although there is still a little gap between this school-run journal and the school-run journals of the two top domestic universities in Shuimuyan University, the gap is actually not very obvious.

Especially the articles he publishes.

Even if other papers are aside, the libraries of many universities and research institutions will cut out their papers from journals separately and make a collection for those engaged in research in related fields for reference.

After finishing the submission, Lu Zhou turned off the computer and put the matter aside for the time being.

He is not an expert in the field of biochemistry, and his knowledge of biological freezing technology has not reached a professional level, and the specific research has to be completed by experts engaged in this field.

At present, Yang Xu has gone to contact Hengrui Pharmaceutical.

Regardless of whether the cooperation can be negotiated or not, I believe that the results will come out soon.

However, Lu Zhou is still optimistic about whether cooperation can be reached.

After all, his place in academia is here.

If he can get his support, the problem that Hengrui Pharmaceutical is worried about is not a problem at all.

Nowadays, the space race is in full swing, and any scientific research project can get green light support in any department as long as it is stamped with the steel seal of the Lunar Orbit Construction Committee.

There are no exceptions to this.

……

The day after Yang Xu contacted Hengrui Pharmaceutical, Professor Zhang Jiafu, who had visited Lu Zhou in Jinling last time, came over again non-stop.

After a brief greeting after the meeting, Professor Zhang couldn't wait to sit down on the sofa, and couldn't wait to ask.

"Why did you become interested in cryonics?"

To be honest, Professor Zhang is not optimistic about this research, or does not support Lu Zhou's trip to the troubled waters.

It is said that because of this cryonics technology, the professor of Harvard University, Grantst, has received several death threat emails, and even radical human solutions. Movement supporters threw rocks at his yard, forcing him to move his home from next to Harvard University to Johnson & Johnson's research institute in eastern Detroit, where he lived a semi-secluded life.

In China, although there is probably no one who dares to open his eyes to Lu Zhou with a "death threat", it will still have a certain impact on his academic reputation after all.

However, after hearing Professor Zhang's inquiry, Lu Zhou didn't seem to pay attention to it at all, and just replied simply.

"Cryonics is a key technology that may be used in the future."

Professor Zhang Jiafu was slightly stunned, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"I don't disagree with your statement...... If you insist, there really aren't any problems on our side. ”

Lu Zhou nodded, without much nonsense, opened the drawer, took out a project plan from it and threw it on the table.

"We will provide the necessary researchers and part of the research funds to participate in this research. However, in the fields of clinical biology, we have a limited talent pool on our side, and we need to provide relevant researchers on your side. ”

"That's no problem," Professor Zhang Jiafu, "we still have a lot of people in clinical biology." ”

As one of the few companies in China that does new drug research and development, Hengrui Pharmaceutical still has a lot of talent reserves in the fields of clinical biology and other fields, among which there are many researchers from top foreign universities and research institutions, all of whom are above the bulls in their respective research directions.

This point still has a lot of advantages compared with the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, which has just been established by the Institute of Biochemistry.

Lu Zhou nodded and continued.

"How the specific cooperation will be carried out, how the benefits will be distributed after the completion of the cooperation, these things that you may be concerned about are all on this plan, and you can take them back to the relevant personnel of your company to see. If there are no problems, I hope that the cooperation will start as soon as possible. ”

Picking up the plan and reading it quickly, Professor Zhang Jiafu said immediately after seeing the list of main participants.

"I have a question."

Lu Zhou: "Say." ”

Zhang Jiafu: "The direction of cryonics technology is too unpopular, although there are many experts in the field of clinical biology and biopharmaceuticals in our researchers, but there is really no ...... in cryogenic biology."

Hearing this, Lu Zhou smiled and said, "You are an expert in the field of life sciences and biopharmaceuticals, and you must have read more papers in this area than me." It's not enough to find a few researchers who have worked in related fields. ”

"How can it be as simple as you say," Zhang Jiafu smiled bitterly and continued, "There are only a few countries in China that can publish papers in the first district of the unpopular direction of studying cryobiology, and I have the people you want, but it is still a question whether people will come." ”

The more unpopular the direction, the smaller the circle, and the more concentrated the resources. In such a situation, it is often the strong who are always strong, and the weak who are always weak.

Awesome professors get a lot of funds to do experiments, train students, publish papers, register patents, and brush their faces in international journals in Zone 1, while weak professors may not even be able to recruit free scientific research labor, and it is difficult to retain them if they are recruited, and they may have to write papers by hand.

Talents are finally cultivated, and they change careers to become code farmers or sales, and the bosses with bad attitudes are autistic...... This kind of thing is all too common in biology.

Therefore, the kind of people Lu Zhou wants to find are not impossible to find, but they have a little ability, and most of them are already very good.

To put it bluntly, since people are already awesome enough, why should they come to work for you?

However, regarding Professor Zhang's concerns, Lu Zhou just smiled faintly and spoke.

"You just have to sign up, and I'll be responsible for talking."

Seeing the indifferent expression on Lu Zhou's face, Zhang Jiafu hesitated for a moment and tentatively reported a name.

"Liu Zuobing......"

Lu Zhou: "He's?" ”

"Director of the Cell Cryomedicine Research Office, Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, PLA General Hospital......"

After a pause, Zhang Jiafu continued, "I met with him at an academic conference in Rongcheng and talked about this issue, and his views on cryonics technology seem to be more optimistic, and he published a paper on the cryorepair of biological cells in the "AnnualReview-of-Physiology", which can even be found in the quotation of Professor Grantster's "Nature", but ......"

Lu Zhou: "Just? ”

"It's just that I heard that he has been evaluating academicians recently, so he may not be willing to wade into this troubled water," Professor Zhang's expression was a little embarrassed, "I'm afraid it's not easy for you to convince him to help." ”

The selection of academicians is not that the more research results, the easier it is to be selected, but at this juncture when the co-optation is about to begin, it is more important than anything else to make mistakes.

However, after hearing Professor Zhang's concerns, Lu Zhou suddenly came to his senses.

Want to be an academician?

That's easy to say!

Lu Zhou had a smile on his face, looked at Zhang Jiafu and said.

"Okay, that's him."

Zhang Jiafu was stunned: "Do you really plan to recruit this big guy to the project team?" ”

"Since you have said it, he is the best in this field of research in China," Lu Zhou smiled, paused for a moment, and continued, "Then I am naturally looking for the best!" ”
