Chapter 466: Speech at the Surgical Conference

World Congress of Surgery, San Francisco Plenary.

Chen Qi, dressed in a suit and tie, stood on the highest podium of surgery, facing more than 1,000 top surgical experts from all over the world, and began his 10-minute special speech.

"Hello everyone, I am Dr. Chen Qi from Huaguo, I am very honored, today I will represent our research group, to introduce to you our latest research results, the theme of my speech today is "New Ideas for Genetic Testing for Surgical Disease Diagnosis".

This is a paper on "Genetic Testing for the Diagnosis of Lung Cancer in Children" that we have published in the New England Journal, and I believe many doctors have seen it, and today I will introduce this case in detail......"

The room was eerily quiet, except for the click of slide exchanges, only the rustling of notes.

It's not the first time Chen Qi has stood on this stage, so he doesn't feel much nervous.

On the contrary, the most nervous is the chairman of the Gene Testing Company, Yuto Takata, for him, whether his company will be popular or spicy in the future, but it all depends on Chen Qi.

"Therefore, when we suspected the source of neonatal lung cancer, we thought of using genetic testing to confirm whether our guess was correct.

Sysmex is very efficient, and it only took 3 days to quickly complete the lung cancer gene sequencing work of this newborn, which bought valuable time for our research group.

In the end, we found out that she had a malignant tumor in her cervix, and we continued to work with Sysmex and their efficiency was as high as ever, and it took less than 5 days to complete the genetic sequencing of the mother's cancer cells.

Then the company compared the two genes, and finally confirmed that the gene overlap rate reached 99.9%, then we can finally determine that the cancer cell source of the newborn is his mother, please look at the picture, this is the two gene sequencing and comparison results map.

This is also the world's first case of direct transmission of cancer cells through mother-to-child, which will also be a textbook rewrite, which is of great significance. But as doctors, we don't just think about this case, but is it possible that other cancer cells can be directly transmitted to the infection?

So we carried out follow-up studies, such as ......"

Chen Qi was talking eloquently above, and Yuto Takada in the audience was very excited.

Because Chen Qi not only mentioned the name of Sysmex many times, but also made it clear that Sysmex is the most advanced and efficient genetic testing company in the world, which is said in front of more than 1,000 top surgeons.

This advertisement is so successful that it makes Takada want to hug Chen Qi and kiss him twice, thinking:

"This Chen Sang is really an honest person, and he can do good things with money, it seems that the two sides will have to cooperate more in the future, and the sponsorship fee will have to be increased."

At the bottom of the venue, Professor Zeng touched Professor Wu Mengchao and said with a smile:

"Look at this kid, such an excellent talent, he was actually sent to Africa, and I don't know what Haidong thinks."

Professor Wu also chuckled:

"The jade is not a weapon, Chen Qi is still young, it is estimated that Haidong also let him go to aid Africa with the intention of focusing on cultivating him, and he will have a beautiful resume in the future, and he will have enough confidence to use it, and he will not be questioned because of his age."

Professor Bi on the side touched his chin and said in thought:

"This paper is so weird, why did he mention many times how good the Sysmex genetic testing company is, it seems that this kid must have collected money."

Head Liu Chumin lowered his head and said softly:

"Sysmex gave their research team $500,000, which has been filed in the ministry, and of course Chen Qi wants to say a few kind words."

"$500,000? Oh, my God! ”

"Is this kid the God of Wealth? The front foot brought 2 million US dollars to her wife, and the back foot brought another 500,000 US dollars. ”

"Yes, it's really more popular than people, I think I will follow Xiao Chen in the future, let him be the boss."

A group of little old men began to make lemons, and Professor Wu said impatiently:

"Okay, okay, it's a matter of others that Xiao Chen has the ability, and if you have the ability, you can also bring in sponsorship, so you still have to pay more attention to academic research and hold fewer inexplicable meetings, but you can't give Xiao Young a comparison."

Compared with the gossip of Chinese doctors, doctors in other countries are much more serious.

In addition to taking notes, there are also questions in my head, which need to be asked urgently after the meeting, well, or rather, questioning......

10 minutes later, the time of the scene made a "beep~~~" sound.

Chen Qi also closed his manuscript, "Thank you for listening carefully, my speech is over, thank you." ”

Then he bowed slightly to the crowd in the room

Afterwards, there was a round of warm applause in the venue.

As compatriots, the doctors of Huaguo all stood up in unison and applauded desperately in support of this young fellow.

At this time, the host of the meeting picked up the microphone,

"It seems that everyone is more interested in genetic testing technology, because of the limited time, everyone can ask questions, but it is limited to one question."

There were at least hundreds of hands raised high at the scene, and it was obvious that everyone had a stomach to communicate.

The host nodded to a doctor at the front of the room: "Yes, this doctor from France, please pass the microphone to the staff." ”

"Hello Dr. Chen, I have a question, genetic testing is more important for internal medicine, this is clear to everyone. But for us surgeons, what is the role and significance of genetic testing? Can you give an example? ”

As soon as this question came out, many people nodded their heads.

Compared with internal medicine, surgeons are more about "doing" rather than "talking".

No matter how good your new technology is, it is a pity that it cannot be applied to surgical clinics and has no benefit to surgical diseases, so it is not very appropriate for you to talk about genetic testing technology at the "World Congress of Surgery" today.

This has also resonated with many surgeons.

Chen Qi took the microphone but shook his head:

"I don't understand it from you, we surgeons don't just do a surgery, for example, I gave an example of lung cancer in my speech, from the perspective of our surgeons, I removed your tumor, and it's OK.

But from the patient's point of view, the doctor removes the tumor, so how did the tumor come from? Will it relapse in the future? What should I do next? How to improve the survival rate, this is very critical, in layman's terms, we have to let the patient live longer.

Therefore, whether it is a surgeon or an internist, it is not enough to cure the pain in front of you, we should pay more attention to the changes that may occur in the future, so as to prevent it as soon as possible, which is one of the meanings of genetic testing.

In addition, genetic testing also plays a very important role in lung cancer, for example, we need to be able to use genetic testing to confirm how lung cancer occurs and how cancer cells change, so that we can find out what are the driver genes of lung cancer cells?

At this point, the bosses of pharmaceutical companies in the audience have paid attention to the fact that we have found a precise target for cancer cells, so can we develop an effective gene-targeted drug to make the survival benefits of patients higher and higher?

I call it a kind of "precision medicine", and the development of this biomarker will inevitably bring about a change in the diagnosis and treatment model of lung cancer, helping doctors to formulate precision treatment plans for lung cancer patients, and it can also benefit more patients.

I saw that the eyes of many pharmaceutical company bosses in the audience began to light up, and I just provided an idea of how to do it, which requires the joint efforts of doctors and researchers, and we all have a common goal, which is to prolong the survival rate of patients. ”

As soon as Chen Qi's words fell, there was even more enthusiastic applause at the scene.

Chen Qi set the tone for the significance of genetic testing technology in surgical clinics, and even pointed out the direction of future development, that is, relying on genetic testing to invent a drug targeted at genes.

For top experts, or top pharmaceutical giants, you just need to provide an idea, and they can create infinite possibilities.

Chen Qi is a reborn person, and of course he knows that targeted drugs are widely used in later clinical applications, so the direction he provides will definitely not be wrong.

For example, drugs that are often used in clinical practice in later generations, such as gefitinib, osimertinib, etc., which target sensitive mutations of EGFR genes, as well as crizotinib and ceritinib for Oak gene fusions, etc.

In addition, there are drugs that target the amplification of the HER-gene, such as pertuzumab, trastuzumab, etc.

When biomarkers develop in the future, everyone will remember what the future ideas put forward by Chen Qi in his speech today.

Maybe it may also be crowned as the "father of targeted drugs".

I didn't see that the bosses of the major pharmaceutical giants have begun to ponder, and they are probably all moved, and they will definitely start to study when they go back.

The happiest thing is to belong to the bosses of the major genetic testing companies who came next to the audience.

If Chen Qi's idea comes true, then the role of their gene company will become more and more prominent in the future.

Gene technology plays a prominent role in clinical practice, which means that the business will skyrocket, and it is all money, after all, the entry threshold for this industry is high, and they are the first batch of people to eat crabs.

What do people open a company for? Is it really for the ideal? For love? For the health of all mankind?

, it's not for the money!

Chen Qi's speech today is undoubtedly a groundbreaking speech, and at the same time, as mentioned many times in the speech, the world's best genetic testing company, Sysmex Mecan, will enter the eyes of the world's top surgeons.

This made Takada smile so much that his mouth couldn't close his mouth, the hundreds of thousands of dollars were a small meaning for him, but this sponsorship was a big one for his genetic company.

So, the practical Chairman Takada happily took out the checkbook and began to write 0 on it, which was an extra thank you to Chen Qi.

Chen Qi stepped down from the stage when a doctor shook hands with him and congratulated him on a successful speech.

Chen Qi was also greatly relieved in his heart, lung cancer is a disease of thoracic surgery, he stumbled upon a case of neonatal lung cancer, and he simply wanted to help the poor family.

Unexpectedly, I completed an academic project, which not only created a fortune for myself and my teachers and colleagues, but also made myself shine again at the surgical conference.

Therefore, when it comes to people, we still have to do more good deeds.

If he was reluctant to accept this neonatal lung cancer patient because of the trouble, all the results brought by him today would have been lost.

Chen Qi is just a pity, Dean Guo, Director Zhu, his master's supervisor Teacher Xu, and Teacher Li did not have the opportunity to stand on the world's highest surgical podium.

Although he proposed the idea of this topic, a lot of basic research work was done by them, and as a result, all the honor and fame were now added to him, which made Chen Qi a little ashamed.

So he was going to take out a part of the "labor fee" he received and send a car to each of the four bigwigs who had been helping him.

I just don't know if they dare to accept it?

By the time Chen returned to his seat, Professor Dewey was already waiting:

"Chen, you guy gave us another surprise, but unfortunately it was a surprise to give us the ICPF Society, I feel that our Society is about to lose you, this is really a frustrating thing."

Chen Qi smiled:

"Mr. Professor, you can't get rid of me even if you want to, my current high income is all due to the ICPF Society and you, if I leave the Society, where will I earn so much knife fees."

"Haha, you kid is so smart, earning the cost of plastic surgery and studying other disciplines, but the opportunity is created for geniuses, for you, this is your surgical schedule for the next few days, all the preoperative examinations have been completed, just waiting for your surgery."

Chen Qi picked up the itinerary form, there are a full 15 flying knife surgeries on it, and there are 5 public teaching surgeries, which is definitely exhausting, not to mention that the FSSH Society will temporarily arrange teaching surgeries.

Judging from this number alone, there are more big dogs in the moldy country, and there are more patients, so there is a lot more money.

It's no wonder that doctors all over the world aspire to work in moldy countries.

Professor Dewey pointed to one of the names and said:

"This first operation is the media to enjoy Funkto, his youngest daughter is born rabbit, cleft lip and palate both exist, and the nose also needs a full facelift, people named you to come to the stage as a gold medal surgeon, you can rest assured, the labor cost is definitely beyond your imagination."

"Hey, just looking at this photo, this whole time is not enough."

"Don't worry, for the next few plastic surgeries, Mr. Faulktor will rent a medical plane from the Mayo Clinic to come to you, whether you are in Africa or Asia."

The Mayo Clinic has several medical planes, all of which have been converted from Boeing 747 aircraft.

The plane has the world's most advanced operating rooms and the top medical team, which is equivalent to a mobile top hospital, dedicated to providing services to the top wealthy.

A charter flight, even in the eighties, was a million-dollar one, and only a top dog like Falktor could afford to rent it.

Even the president of the mold country is not easy to enjoy.

In comparison, giving Chen Qi tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of dollars, is really just a drizzle.
