Chapter 721: Chapter 642: Inducing Protein Spectrum

The issue of Nandu Medical University merging with Sanbo Hospital was proposed in a meeting the day before where everyone from the hospital committee to the department directors unanimously agreed.

Unexpectedly, the very next day, Nandu Medical University sent people to visit Sanbo Hospital for further discussions. It appeared as if they were aiming for a quickie marriage.

Indeed, it seemed like a whirlwind romance. On the third day, the hospital’s signboard at the entrance was covered with a red silk cloth. Could it be that it had been swiftly changed to "Nandu Medical University Affiliated Sanbo Hospital"?

If an actual merger were to occur, it would be all about negotiating the terms of the contract. It was expected that Dean Xia, a clever man, would have been studying the terms for quite some time.

Seeking everyone’s opinion was merely a final touch to the decision.

Since everyone agreed unanimously, the only thing left was to sign the papers.

On the fourth day, Sanbo Hospital held a low-key unveiling ceremony, where the signboard "Sanbo Hospital" was replaced with "Nandu Medical University Affiliated Sanbo Hospital".

Only the leadership of Nandu Medical University and Sanbo Hospital attended the unveiling ceremony. Even the older academicians from Nandu and no reporters were present.

Besides the change of the sign, there didn’t seem to be any other changes, and everyone carried on as usual.

However, the speed of the change was a bit too fast for such a significant event. How could it happen so quickly?

Yang Ping didn’t bother about these matters. As a doctor, his job was to perform surgeries and conduct his research well. As for other matters, they were handled by others. Dean Xia was there to handle any major crises.

All the clinical experiment data from the first phase of the Comprehensive Surgery Department had been collected and processed, and all surgeries for the second and third phase of clinical experiments had been completed. Some data from the second phase had already been collected.

With the complete phase one clinical experiment data, it was entirely acceptable to publish articles and reasonably add phase two and three articles later.

For such a significant topic, other teams would feel obliged to publish more than a dozen articles to justify their efforts.

However, Yang Ping’s team planned to publish only three articles, which showed considerable restraint.

Moreover, they intended to submit all three to "Science".

Only Yang Ping’s team had such fearless courage.

One topic, three "Science" articles.

After a day of surgeries, Yang Ping returned to his office to drink tea and relax.

The way he worked was essential. For example, for the scoliosis surgery, if he did not improve or optimize it, he would be the only one capable of performing such complex surgeries. He would only be able to perform a limited number despite working from dawn till dusk.

By summarizing the operation and developing an easy-to-learn system, not only the doctors at Sanbo like Song Zimo and Xu Zhiliang, but also those at Nandu Affiliated Hospital One, Xiehe, 301, and Magic City Sixth Hospital, are all now performing these surgeries. This was a stark improvement compared to Yang Ping exhausting himself alone.

Therefore, it was not a matter of an individual’s exceptional skills, but rather the ability to groom a group of talented people that determined greatness.

An individual’s capability to perform surgeries and cure people was very limited. If everyone can master these surgeries, it would be a genuine way to cure and save people.

Song Zimo entered by knocking, handing over the painstakingly written paper: "Professor, the paper is written, please take a look."

How important it is to have a good assistant!

Otherwise, who would find the time to drink tea!

Yang Ping leisurely picked up the paper. Not bad, it was completed so quickly. Young Master Song, I am not exploiting you, I am training you.

I only asked you to write the paper; I didn’t ask you to walk the dog, wash the car, or pick up children.

Of course, I don’t have children, nor do I keep a dog.

Well, it is well-written, worthy of a doctoral thesis published in The Lancet.

The full English paper was very particular about word choices, however, to show off his expertise, Yang Ping pointed out a few inappropriate places and made some adjustments with a red pen.

"Send it off as soon as possible!" Yang Ping handed the paper to Song Zimo.

"Nandu Medical University is going to help you apply for Outstanding Young Talent, but the strict criterion for Outstanding Young Talent is to have a doctoral degree. With this paper, you should be able to graduate early with your doctorate."

"It doesn’t matter if I’m an Outstanding Young Talent or not, nor does it matter if I can graduate early with a doctorate. The key point is to get the paper out as soon as possible so our mature surgical technique can be promoted."

The popularization of surgical techniques, if clinical experiments were small-batch productions, then the publication of articles was assembly line production. Yang Ping certainly wanted to establish his own assembly line as soon as possible.

The best way to promote a new technique is to publish it in such top-tier journals with many readers, and credibility.

"The average review process takes more than a hundred days; it’s not that fast!"

Song Zimo was very familiar with this process.

"That’s too slow! You have to push them."

Yang Ping took a sip of tea.

"I urge them?"

Big boss, are you kidding me? The reviewers for "Science" are the top experts from all over the world. There are more than twenty in the field of biology. Who should I urge? Can I even urge anyone?

"Urge---urge who?"

Song Zimo doubted if he heard it right.

"I don’t know who can be urged, just urge whoever you can." Yang Ping also didn’t know who Song Zimo should urge.

In any case, he felt that over a hundred days were too slow.

After leaving with Song Zimo, Yang Ping rested for a while, then entered the system lab again to conduct some experiments.

He started reverse verification of the captured proteins. Following previous research results, he induced stem cell differentiation in set body fluid and temperature environments using the formulated inducive protein.

His spacious lab was bustling with mechanical hands, helping Yang Ping complete various tasks. Various incubators started their busy work.

It would have been great if time could be fast-forwarded in system space, but sadly, the perception of time was consistent with the outside world.

That is to say, if an experiment outside takes three months, it would also take three months inside. The difference is that the three months inside do not take up real time.

Stem cell division and differentiation need time to wait.

To save time, Yang Ping had to use the hands of the machines repeatedly to open new experimental areas and start several experiments at the same time.

The entire laboratory kept expanding. It’s already as big as several football fields. Yang Ping stood in the center of the lab and was awestruck when he looked around.

He was proud of himself, having such a large laboratory at his service.

He roamed around the gigantic lab. He had to check how many generations of stem cells have divided here and what cells have been differentiated; where did the stem cell differentiation fail, and why, so the experiment can be stopped.

Although countless mechanical hands helped with the work, the thinking process was all down to Yang Ping alone.

The entire lab was filled only with the sound of the machines working, nothing else.

The previous robotic female voice hardly says anything now.

Yang Ping wondered if he would start stuttering like Xu Zhiliang if he stayed here for too long.

Well, if he stutters, he stutters. After all, he’s found a girlfriend. All that’s left is to get the marriage license.

Oh, he almost forgot, he still needs to pick a good day to get the license with Xiao Su.

His future father-in-law suggested going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the license first, and arrange the wedding banquet later whenever they’re free.

What a wonderful father-in-law!

Thinking back to his days of befriending Su Nanchen without knowing he was Su Yixuan’s brother, there was one time in Liquan Hospital after a satisfying meal with Boss Cheng, Su Nanchen, and Dean Cai, that crazy Dean Cai suggested they go somewhere nice to relax during the day.

Luckily, neither he nor Su Nanchen were into that kind of thing, or it would have been social suicide for them.

This vast lab seems a bit hard to handle.

Yang Ping kept walking back and forth inside it, even running around sometimes.

After an unknown period, he finally completed the reverse verification experiment. He eliminated about ten proteins, re-tested the remaining proteins, and screened them like a sieve. The remaining proteins would no longer be problematic since they’re the protein spectrum of the inducive protein.

When he left the system space, Yang Ping felt his tongue wasn’t very nimble when he talked.

Nothing from the system space could be brought out, not even files or materials. Yang Ping could only rely on his memory to take out information.

Yang Ping quickly wrote down the inducive protein from memory, one by one.

At this moment, Xu Zhiliang knocked and came in.

"Pro---pro---fessor!"

This guy; sometimes he can speak a bunch of words clearly, but sometimes he stutters after only a few words. His symptoms were highly unstable.

"You better not come in; I want to rest for a bit."

Yang Ping cleared his throat and tried to untie his tongue.

He could speak, but for the time being, he mustn’t talk to Xu Zhiliang. He was afraid that his unsmooth tongue would be infected by Xu Zhiliang, and he would start stuttering too.

"Ok---ok---ok---"
