Chapter 145: Revisiting the Faculty of Biological Sciences
Returning to the double-storey cabin, Hua Kejing checked his basic ability table again.
Intelligence 9352 (+102);
Power 8622 (+222);
Constitution: 8862 (+140);
Keen 9811 (+025);
Tenacity 9688 (+077);
……
Hua Kejing asked again, what kind of level is it now?
Xiaole told him that this had beaten 99998 healthy men aged 20-30.
According to this ratio, the non-humans who can currently rank in front of Hua Kejing add up to more than 6,000 people.
Constant progress is indeed a joy.
But through a year of uninterrupted efforts, Hua Kejing found that the speed of improvement in strength and physique has once again entered a higher plateau, which is really getting slower and slower.
It is still the truth that those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and the higher they go, the more difficult it is.
Thinking about it, it is absolutely impossible to break through the limits of the human body just by relying on iron.
Not to mention that this year's Hua Kejing is a full thirty years old.
When it comes to age, when it comes to aging, it's a topic that is both serious and poignant.
Many girls are reluctant to mention their age after the age of 18.
Forever 18 years old!
I'm afraid I'll be a year older!
Men face the same problem.
In fact, human aging occurs much earlier than we think.
You must know that in your 20s, it is the peak period of various indicators of the body, and once this peak period is passed, you have actually embarked on the road of aging.
Hua Kejing still clearly remembers the years when he was 18 years old, he went to bed late and stayed up late, he didn't feel anything at all, and at most he became lively when he made up for sleep the next day.
And now in the 30th grade, even though I have always maintained good living habits, I always feel that my physical condition has begun to decline irrepressibly.
In this regard, Li Chenjing often complains that he doesn't sleep at noon, collapses at night, doesn't sleep all night, and collapses for a week.
Hua Kejing is very clear,
Although he is not an idol, let alone a star, and he doesn't care about eating youth, if he can't maintain good physical health indicators, then he can only think about going to the center of the galaxy to save Lu Ban.
This is the reason why he wanted to establish the Life Science Research Institute and cooperate with the Shanghai Life Science Research Institute and carry out projects.
It is necessary to turn the achievements of the scientific research institute in the virtual world into reality as soon as possible.
Taking drugs to save your life and delay aging is a top priority.
When this time is over, I must go to Shanghai again.
Thinking so, Hua Kejing walked around the Faculty of Life Sciences building a few more times.
……
January 22, 2023.
The first day of the first month of the lunar calendar.
After the success of the aerospace debut, a group of relatives and friends have already returned to their respective homes in order to celebrate the Spring Festival.
Hua Kejing returned to Lucheng.
As a thirty-year-old young man, and he has no relatives, he is really lonely.
As a result, Hua Kejing still chose to spend the Spring Festival in the starting point orphanage, just like the previous two years.
After all, it is the place where you were raised.
In fact, when I was a child, I was quite happy when I ate a "reunion dinner" during the Spring Festival.
Although there are no blood relatives, whether it is the people in the orphanage or the government staff, anyway, everyone has the impression that they are very good to themselves.
With the development of the economy and the progress of the association, the orphanages in Huaxia are really getting warmer.
Therefore, if you really want to have a hard Spring Festival, it is still the first few years of work.
Because of the limited resources of the orphanage, the children will have to leave sooner or later when they grow up, after all, there are still many orphans in society who need to be taken care of.
But the situation has been much better in the past two years.
Since achieving economic freedom, Hua Kejing has also been able to contribute to the starting point orphanage.
Whether it is to contribute money or effort, or to add things to repair the building, it is always a matter of heart.
So, now it's his turn to put out a table full of delicious meals for the children.
……
I woke up early in the morning and, as is customary, distributed New Year's gifts to the children along with the rest of the staff.
Then I went to the residence of the dean and several old aunts to say hello to the New Year.
After doing this, I returned to the starting point orphanage, and it was almost evening.
Hua Kejing wandered around the garden of the orphanage alone.
The courtyard is a little deep,
willow pile smoke,
An old wall......
Reading and reading, the poems in the blurred image are crooked again!
In a trance,
I remember more than a half-star.
For example, the perennial lush garden,
There is also the shade of the sunset.
……
At the end of the Spring Festival holiday, Hua Kejing went north and flew directly to Shanghai.
At the Shanghai Institute of Life Sciences, a subsidiary of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, he was warmly received.
There are two reasons for this,
First, in the past year, Hua Kejing has carried out a number of cooperation projects with the Institute of Brain, Physiology, Materia Medica, and Cell Biology under the Shanghai Institute of Life Sciences, and the progress is gratifying.
Second, after the successful first launch of the Yinglong heavy-duty carrier rocket, reports on the world's private aerospace cutting-edge -- Muyu Aerospace have long been overwhelming and well-known, and the name Hua Kejing is also well-known in the scientific community.
After participating in the project discussion for two consecutive days at the Shanghai Academy of Biological Sciences, Huake Mirror has a general grasp of the R&D progress of several online drugs and medical devices.
In fact, the research and development of new drugs is an extremely complex, risky and lengthy process.
It's even like a big gamble.
Ten years ago, it would cost $1.7 billion to $1.8 billion to develop a new drug.
And now, $3 billion is needed.
Despite technological advancements, the cost of new drug development is indeed getting higher and higher.
It is often the case that a team has come up with a hypothesis to treat a disease, but it has not been able to see the product on the market for a long time.
This is so because it often takes more than 10 years for new drug development to go from idea to drug production, and there is a failure rate of up to 92%.
To put it simply, the R&D steps are cumbersome and time-consuming.
There are 80 chances that it took a year to still find the therapeutic element of the target;
There is a 75 percentage, it took another year and a half to find the therapeutic element, another two years to optimize it, and four and a half years passed from identification to optimization.
And these works are just the beginning, followed by the determination of lead compounds, the study of structure-activity relationship and the screening of active compounds, and the selection of drug candidates.
After the drug candidate is determined, the new drug development enters the development stage, which requires multidisciplinary collaboration, such as synthesis process, toxicology, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, formulation, and other disciplines.
When these preclinical studies are completed, the real clinical studies are conducted.
Phase 1 clinical trial, Phase 2 clinical trial, Phase 3 clinical trial, etc., etc......
Not only is the whole process extremely strict, but any step of feedback that yields poor results can lead to stillbirth of a drug candidate.
To sum up, this is the reason why Huakejing's ability is limited and it is unable to help the medical team quickly screen and develop drugs during the Jingchu epidemic.
After all, drugs are extraordinary, and the government medical department is responsible to everyone, and there must be no sloppiness.
……
Now, in the research projects cooperated with major biological science institutes, Huake Microscope has introduced a drug research and development AI system on the basis of relying on the scientific research capabilities and rich experience of the other party.
The drug R&D AI system can establish a set of end-to-end comprehensive solutions for new drug R&D, including target identification, molecule discovery, and clinical prediction.
This not only enables practitioners to connect biology and chemistry to quickly design molecules to kill targets, but also accurately predicts the outcome of clinical trials.
For example, with the help of this system, the task of generating new molecules for protein targets, which would have taken about 2 years to complete, is now completed in just one month with an extremely high hit rate.
Therefore, the revolutionary results of this AI technology can greatly reduce the research and development process of new drugs under the current policy, and then quickly cure a disease.
……
Before leaving the Shanghai Academy of Biological Sciences, Hua Kejing visited Director Yang Weilin of the Brain Research Institute again.
This time, the two talked about the cryogenic hibernation technology of interstellar travel.
But unlike the first small talk, Yang Weilin's tone and attitude were much more solemn.
He smiled and said to Hua Kejing, "Mr. Hua, I kind of understand why you are interested in cryogenic dormancy technology." ”
Hua Kejing smiled and said nothing, according to his recent performance in the aerospace field, his purpose is indeed "obvious".
"Otherwise, we will also form a team to carry out research on low-temperature dormancy chambers, just like NASA in the United States."
"Okay."
Hua Kejing nodded.
The so-called one fence has three piles, and one hero has three gangs.
He had already had this idea and had been waiting for the right time and a good team.
Cryogenic hibernation technology is definitely one of the biggest obstacles to achieving the goal of long interstellar travel.
In fact, the current hibernation technology is still very immature, and there are still many problems to be solved.
such as
Addresses the symptoms of muscle and organ atrophy caused by prolonged dormancy.
Precise control of the balance between metabolic levels and dormancy duration.
How to ensure the supply of nutrients necessary for the minimum functioning of the human body.
How to deal with microexcretion in dormant people.
And so on and so forth.
……
I salute every friend who has been with me all the way, thank you for your support!
