Chapter 17 Teacher’s Help

After such an incident, Wang Hao’s attitude towards Lu Li changed drastically. After eating seafood at the Meiyuan Hotel, he originally planned to take Zhou Jingjing to go skiing with him.

However, at this moment, Lu Li received a call from Professor Xu. Professor Xu asked Lu Li to go back to school. Wang Hao immediately expressed enthusiasm that he would send Lu Li and Qin Wei back to Tsinghua University.

If it was before, Wang Hao would certainly not be so enthusiastic. If you are in a hurry, take a taxi by yourself.

But now, Wang Hao has determined that Lu Li has a promising future, and of course he needs to make friends with his heart.

After returning to National Tsing Hua University, Lu Li went directly to Professor Xu’s office.

Qin Wei and Zhou Jingjing went back to the dormitory together.

“Weiwei, this little boyfriend of yours is amazing. If it wasn’t for you to have a good relationship, I would have to attack him, so you have to hurry up and look at him, don’t let him be strayed by any fox. ”

Zhou Jingjing said.

“I didn’t expect him to grow up so fast and so popular.” Qin Wei said that Yali Mountain is big, “and I can’t help him. When I’m with him, he always has the initiative.”

“Then there is only a trick, you find a chance, take him down, and crush him severely.”

Zhou Jingjing offered a plan.

“Take it down? Suppress?”

Qin Wei was a little puzzled.

“Mom, you don’t even understand this, it’s simply terrible…There is no way, when I return to the dormitory, I will give you the resources I treasured in the hard drive, so that you can see the world.”

Zhou Jingjing said mysteriously.

…

After Lu Li came to Professor Xu’s office, he found that besides Professor Xu, there was also an elderly man with gray hair.

“Xiao Lu, let me introduce to you.”

Professor Xu looked at the old man and said with a smile: “This is Professor Tian Zhixing, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and a world-renowned expert in biovirology. Aren’t you studying HIV? I’m not familiar with this field. I can’t help you. , So introduce you to Professor Tian. If you have any virus-related questions, you can consult Professor Tian or ask him for help.”

Hearing what Professor Xu said, Lu Li was very moved. He was studying HIV. Professor Xu took the initiative to introduce him to Professor Tian, ​​an expert in biovirology. I guess there is no second such mentor in the world, right?

“Teacher, thank you.”

Lu Li solemnly thanked Professor Xu for his friendship, he will keep it in his heart.

Immediately, he looked at Professor Tian again.

In fact, he had heard of Professor Tian’s name a long time ago.

Professor Tian is the country’s top biovirology expert. He studied in Star Country in his early years, and Star Country wanted to retain him with very generous terms. However, he still chose to return to his motherland and National Tsing Hua University to teach and educate people and become a powerful scientific research country. As for his contribution… There is a saying in academic circles that Professor Tian holds up half of the sky in virology at National Tsing Hua University.

“Professor Tian, ​​I will trouble you in the future.”

Lu Li is also not hypocritical. Since Professor Tian is here, it means that he is willing to help himself.

“No trouble, no trouble at all.” Professor Tian said, “Now the form of the global disease is getting more and more severe. Large-scale epidemics have occurred many times, and the same is true in our country. Therefore, I have always hoped that there will be more. Talented people from joining the field of biotechnology, only with advanced technology, our country can be calm in the face of major diseases and epidemics.”

“The AIDS you are studying is also a disease that gives me a headache. In just a few decades, there has been an explosive growth in our country. There are already millions of patients, and the more young people are now The more open it is, the epidemic of AIDS may become more serious in the future.”

Speaking of this, Professor Tian couldn’t help but sigh. For a person like him who sincerely hopes that the motherland will be strong, the phenomenon of AIDS among young people is really heartbroken.

Invisibly, Lu Li was also infected by Professor Tian’s feelings of worrying about the country and the people, and his heart couldn’t help but his respect and admiration for Professor Tian surged.

Professor Tian continued: “Xiao Lu, I have already read your information. To be honest, you are the most talented scientific researcher I have ever seen. As long as you don’t waste your talents, you will surely become our country’s biological community in the future. It’s the pillar, so I’ll try my best to help you. You can come to me for anything you have, whether it’s scientific research or life.”

“Thank you Professor Tian.”

Lu Li’s heart is also a little touched. He can see that Professor Tian is willing to help him, not for fame, nor for financial benefits, but purely to help the country cultivate talents. This kind of sentiment, now those who believe in the supremacy of money People are hard to understand.

After a pause, Lu Li said: “Actually, I already have ideas about treating AIDS. I want to use single-base gene editing technology to modify the genes of macrophages so that macrophages can recognize and eliminate HIV. At the same time, it can also identify and eliminate cells infected by HIV.”

After listening to Lu Li’s words, Professor Tian thought for a while and said: “This is indeed a way of thinking, but it’s a bit more difficult, because we don’t know enough about the genes of macrophages, and we are also aware of the behavior of HIV after entering macrophages. I don’t know much, and the current gene editing technology is not precise enough, and the possibility of off-target is very high. When modifying the gene, a little failure may not be allowed, because it may bring unexpected negative effects. ”

Having said that, Professor Tian seemed to have thought of something, and said with a smile: “I am so confused that I forgot the single-base gene editing technology you developed. This technology is highly accurate and is used for gene editing. If it is, the success rate is very high…Moreover, if you can develop this technology, it shows that you have a good understanding of genes…Xiao Lu, I support you to explore this path, science, it is to continue to explore and try. Only then will it be possible to succeed, and maybe soon, I will be able to hear the news of your success.”

In fact, Professor Tian is not sure whether Lu Li can succeed, he just encourages young people like Lu Li to try boldly.
