Science on the Rise: Starting with Cell Editors

　　"not sure."

　　"I know, it's Lu Li who is using it. It's that Lu Li who got a perfect score in the college entrance examination. Now he's a student of Professor Xu Zhongchen, but instead of doing projects with Professor Xu, he applied for a laboratory by himself. I heard that he is studying AIDS. ."

　　"I rub... I suddenly had an idea in my mind, could it be that Lu Li has already conquered AIDS?"

　　"Don't say it, there is such a possibility, otherwise, why would so many academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences come to this laboratory, and the school specially arranged security guards to guard this laboratory."

　　"Mom, this is too much, I read the news, Lu Li is only 18 years old, and he conquered AIDS at the age of 18? My God, I don't dare to think, I don't dare to think...I don't even dare to think about it. "

　　"Although I don't really want to believe it, but... it's very likely to be true, and Lu Li is not an ordinary person. He slammed a horse, and after two weeks of studying biology, a paper was published in the journal "Cell" already."

　　"This is a god!"

　　……

　　at the same time.

　　Yanjing, a building that looks ordinary from the outside, is actually the office of a secret department.

　　At this time, Ning Wei, the department's best secret service officer, came to the leader's office.

　　"Boss, what is your mission?"

　　Ning Wei had a good relationship with the leader, so he asked directly.

　　"A very important task."

　　While speaking, the leader picked up the portfolio on the table and handed it to Ning Wei.

　　Ning Wei opened the portfolio and saw a document. The photo attached to the document was very conspicuous. He was a handsome young man. Judging from his temperament, he should be a student.

　　At this time, the leader continued: "The person in this photo is Lu Li, a student of Qing University. You can bring a team. The task of your team is to protect the safety of Lu Li and his girlfriend. As for his parents Someone else is in charge of the safety of your life. You have to remember that even if you risk your own life, you can't let Lu Li have an accident."

　　Although Ning Wei had some doubts, he still said decisively, "Understood."

　　After he finished speaking, he read the file carefully.

　　"Lu Li, male, 18 years old, the top student in the college entrance examination in Nanjiang Province, with a perfect score in the college entrance examination..."

　　"In two weeks, I developed a single-base gene editing technology and published a paper in the journal "Cell"..."

　　"The overcoming of AIDS technology has been confirmed by the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This technology is an important tool for a great country, it is related to national interests, and it is a trump card in the hands of our country..."

　　"Director Wu of the Institute of Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences commented that Lu Li is a real genius and his value is immeasurable..."

　　After reading it, Ning Wei's eyes were still full of shock. After so many years, it was the first time he knew that someone could be so talented.

　　Such a genius is worth at least five divisions.

　　He now understands why the leader said that even if he puts his life in, he can't let Lu Li have an accident.

　　"Are you confident to complete the task?"

　　The leader spoke again and asked seriously.

　　"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

　　Ning Wei straightened his body and spoke decisively.

Chapter 30 It's him!It's him again!

　　The sun went down and it got dark.

　　Lu Li also finished his work, packed up his equipment and medicine, and prepared to leave the laboratory.

　　But I won't go back to the dormitory today.

　　He had already told Qin Wei that he was going to rent the house tonight.

　　Get out of the lab.

　　Lu Li was surprised to find that the security guard at the door had been replaced. Although he was still wearing the security uniform of Qingda University, his temperament was obviously different.

　　Beside the security guard, there were also six people in civilian clothes, four men and two women.

　　Seeing Lu Li, one of them took a step forward, took out the certificate and handed it to Lu Li, and said sternly: "Mr. Lu, hello, I'm Ning Wei, I'm responsible for protecting your safety and your girlfriend's safety, but we're only secretly Protection will not affect your life, this time just to get acquainted first."

　　Lu Li quickly expressed his thanks, "Thank you for your hard work."

　　Next, Ning Wei introduced the identities of the other people, then dispersed, pretending to be students and passers-by, walking around seemingly casually, but the surrounding area has been blocked, and anyone who wants to approach Lu Li must pass them first. this off.

　　Seeing this scene, Lu Li really realized.

　　His identity is different from before!

　　He is no longer an ordinary student, but a highly valued scientist, and even his travels are protected by professionals arranged by the state!

　　In short, he is already a big man!

　　……

　　Half an hour later, Lu Li rode a bicycle and came to the house he rented with Senior Sister Qin Wei.

　　Only then did he know that the house next to him had been rented out by the relevant departments for use by Ning Wei and others. It must be said that this was very efficient.

　　open the door.

　　Enter the house.

　　Lu Li smelled an attractive fish scent, followed the scent to the kitchen, and found that Qin Wei was making braised fish.

　　"How do you know that I like to eat braised fish."

　　Lu Li said with a smile.

　　"I have eaten out with you 37 times. You have ordered braised fish 13 times, and sweet and sour pork ribs 10 times. So yeah, I already know your taste."

　　Qin Wei answered lightly, not taking it seriously.

　　Lu Li was a little moved, stepped forward and hugged Qin Wei gently.

　　soon.

　　The dish is ready.

　　Two dishes and one soup, full of food, color and taste.

　　Lu Li and Qin Wei both enjoyed their meals, and their mouths were full of happiness.

　　After dinner.

　　Lu Li took the initiative to clean up the tableware.

　　Qin Wei came to the living room and studied hard.

　　Her boyfriend was too good, which made her feel a lot of pressure, so she also began to work hard to improve herself.

　　Lu Li didn't bother her, he also came to the desk, turned on the computer, and started writing the paper.

　　In just over two hours, Lu Li wrote two papers, one on the use of macrophages to treat AIDS, and the other on biological gene lock technology.

　　Looking at these two papers, Lu Li took a sip of tea and smiled.

　　Although he has not yet published these two papers, he can already foresee what kind of stormy waves will be set off.

　　……

　　Due to the time difference, it is daytime on the other side of the ocean.

　　Elsevier Press.

　　"Cell" magazine editorial department, editor's office.

　　Raymond, as usual, sips coffee leisurely while reading submitted papers from around the world.

　　"Transforming mouse embryonic stem cells into primordial germ cells and implanting them into laboratory mice that cannot normally produce sperm, the primordial germ cells then begin to produce normal-shaped sperm, allowing the laboratory mice to have reproductive ability... This research is a bit of a Meaning, it is expected to bring the gospel to male infertility."

　　"Organ-level quorum sensing mediates the regeneration of hair follicle stem cell populations... This paper is quite satisfactory. If there is no better paper, it can be published in a journal. Hey, since that Longguo high school student named Lu Li published a single-base gene After editing the technology, there have been no submissions worthy of my admiration."

　　Raymond sighed and continued reading the manuscript.

　　"Using single-base gene editing technology to transform macrophages, successfully cultivated macrophages that can eliminate HIV..."

　　"Wait! I read that right? According to this guy, he has conquered AIDS? What a joke? I want to see who the contributor is..."

　　The next second, Raymond's eyes widened, and his body sat up instantly.

　　"It turned out to be him! The author of this paper turned out to be him! The genius who shocked the entire academic world with a paper! He should not make grandstanding behaviors, that is to say...he really conquered AIDS?"

　　Raymond's face was flushed with excitement, his eyes were fixed on the screen, and he read the manuscript word by word.

　　A minute has passed.

　　Two minutes passed.

　　Fifteen minutes passed.

　　Raymond jumped up from his chair excitedly and said to himself, "My God! AIDS has really been conquered! The whole scientific community is about to have an earthquake!"

　　At this moment, he suddenly remembered something, that email had two attachments, that is to say, there were two papers, and he only read one.

　　"What's the content of the other paper?"

　　Raymond sat down quickly, opened the attachment, and his eyes widened again: "Biological gene lock technology! By adding a special code to the gene, the expression of the gene can be restricted..."

　　"This... This is a genius idea! The most terrifying thing is that he succeeded!"

　　"My God! Is he really human? If I remember correctly, it hasn't been a month since his last submission, right? In a month, ordinary scientists haven't even finished the preparations for a new research topic. , he has already conquered AIDS, and he has also developed a biological gene lock technology that makes my scalp tingle! Is this really something that humans can do? His talent is also terrible! I seem to be witnessing a legendary scientist If he can continue to grow at this rate, he will become a biological legend, he will become a radiant legend like Newton and Einstein!"

　　Thinking of this, Raymond immediately called the assistant's phone: "Book me a ticket to Longguo Yanjing, I want today's ticket, I'm leaving today!"

　　After doing this, Raymond hurriedly dialed another number: "John, I want to tell you some unfortunate news, AIDS has been conquered, and your research is probably meaningless... Who conquered it? It's Lu Li. You should remember his name, yes, it's the Longguo high school student who invented the single-base gene editing technology... Do you want a paper? No problem, anyway, this paper will be published in "Cell" tomorrow. " magazine... By the way, Lu Li has another paper that will be published in the "Cell" magazine tomorrow, which is also an epoch-making technology, biological gene lock technology..."

　　John O'Keefe, a professor at Harvard University and a Nobel laureate in physiology or medicine, is conducting research in the field of AIDS.

　　"Bruce, I want to tell you a shocking news. The era of gene therapy has come. The genius of the Dragon Kingdom, Lu Li, used the single-base gene editing technology he invented to modify the genes of macrophages and successfully make macrophages can eradicate HIV..."

　　Bruce Butler, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a Nobel laureate in physiology or medicine, has made outstanding pioneering contributions in the field of gene editing technology.

　　……

　　Lu Li never imagined that Raymond had become his tap water and was enthusiastically helping him to publicize it. Then, John O'Keefe and others took the initiative to spread the news.

　　soon.

　　This news brought an unparalleled sensation to the Western academic circles.
