I Don’t Want to Win Lying Down

The latest website: Almost seven days have passed since the gene editing forum. For Editor-in-Chief Pete, the nearly seven days have been a hellish existence. Fortunately, Professor Burton Richard of Stanford University, during this period of time, Added a little new expectation.

in the office,

Editor-in-Chief Pete is dealing with his own affairs, but his eyes will look to the lower right corner from time to time, expecting that the man will send an email, but this wait... I don't know when it will end.

Damn...

Will there be any accidents? Editor-in-Chief Pete frowned, his eyes were a little blurred, and he was a little bit worried. The paper published by Burton Richard in Science had clearly pointed out that jumping gene editing The tool was wrong, and many experts made professional comments on it, thinking that Xu Mang might fail.

at first,

Pete didn't believe that Xu Mang would fail, but as time got closer and closer to the point where there was no turning point, he gradually accepted the idea of ​​failure.

bang bang bang,

Pete?

Is there any email from Xu Mang? The editor of Nature Medicine, Professor Wedson hurried to Pete's office, with a little expectation on his face, he asked, The time is coming soon, did Xu Mang send you an email? What email?

Alas... Editor-in-Chief Pete sighed, and said helplessly, No...I've been waiting for a long time, and I really haven't received Xu Mang's email. It seems...the last thing we want to happen, It happened after all, so what now?

...

It shouldn't be possible. Wadeson frowned, and said seriously: Isn't it time yet? Why don't we wait a little longer.

Wedson pulled out a chair, sat opposite Pete, and asked curiously: What do you think of the brand-new gene editing tool of the Stanford University team? It seems that there has been no news since the end of that forum summit.

Compared to Burton Richard's research results, I am more looking forward to Xu Mang's jumping gene editing tool. If he can achieve the effect announced in front of the whole world, I believe...to eliminate the wrong diseases in nature, It's no longer a fantasy. Editor-in-Chief Pete said seriously.

Roughly the same.

I'm only looking forward to Xu Mang's jumping gene editing tool. Professor Wedson said with a wry smile, I don't know...whether he can finish it within the stipulated time, a week...Speaking of which, this week is indeed very short. It took more than 20 hours to return to China from the United States, unless he can stay up for five days and five nights.

Although both of them are looking forward to Xu Mang's jumping gene editing tool, the reality is so cruel. According to the current situation, wanting to see his latest results today seems to be a luxury, or a pity.

half an hour later,

It's over...

It's completely over. Wedson seemed to have accepted the situation, and Xu Mang couldn't fulfill the promise he made in front of the whole world within the allotted time.

yes!

There is no way at all. Editor-in-chief Pete sighed, and said helplessly: I think the time is too short...Think about it, return to Huaguo from the United States, and then remove the usual meals and sleep, and there is nothing left. There wasn't much time left.

Professor Wedson looked up at Pete, and said seriously, When do you think he can handle it?

If there are no accidents... I think giving him another week should solve the problem. Pete pondered for a while and said, From the information we got at the forum summit, Xu Mang probably just had an idea, but he It cleverly applied the CRISPR-C2c1 gene editing system to make it very real.

almost.

I think so too. Professor Wadeson nodded: By the way, don't forget your promise. This time his research report needs to be published in Nature Medicine, otherwise I won't forgive you.

...

Don't worry! Editor-in-chief Pete said with a smile, I will definitely let you.

Ding dong!

Suddenly a system sound came from the computer. The sound made the two of them stunned for a moment. Their hearts, which were originally as still as still water, became surging at this moment. Could it be...that man sent an email?

It's email!

It should be an email from Xu Mang! Although Pete is a middle-aged editor and he is the editor-in-chief of Nature, he should not be surprised when things happen, but he saw the system prompt at the bottom right of the computer screen Afterwards, the excitement couldn't be hidden.

Hurry up!

Look at what's inside! Wedson hurriedly got up, moved his own chair enough by the way, sat next to Pete, and kept urging him to hurry up.

Don't worry!

The more excited you are, the more mistakes you will make. You just open your e-mail and download attachments from it. With such a simple operation, Editor-in-Chief Pete actually makes mistakes again and again, either making mistakes or making mistakes.

finally,

Editor-in-Chief Pete downloaded the attached file, and the moment the file was opened [567 Chinese], the heads of the two couldn't help but stretched forward.

two minutes later,

The originally calm and unfazed expression gradually distorted. Editor-in-Chief Pete swallowed his saliva and asked cautiously, Wedson...you...what else do you want?

The magic lamp!!

I just want to say...Xu Mang is a magic lamp in the field of gene editing! Professor Wedson said with horror, This...I have never seen such an idea in my life. The previous CRISPR-C2c1 The gene editing system just blows my mind, but this... this jump gene editing tool...I...

Wedson thought of a lot of vocabulary, but he found that he couldn't find any words to describe what he saw. Even if he took out the Oxford dictionary and combined all the commendatory words in it, he still couldn't show this. The terror of data.

Is...is he still human?

He actually managed to add a new DNA sequence without removing the existing DNA sequence. Professor Wedson said: Pete...this...this means that gene editing will no longer be risky in the future, God Hey... what did I see?

Editor-in-Chief Pete pondered for a while, and said calmly: I think...we have seen the future, which is definitely the future technology, a product of time and space, I am afraid that we have entered the future era ahead of schedule, which is absolutely shocking!

Peter!

Don't forget your promise. Wedson looked at Pete seriously: This paper is placed on our Nature Medicine.

don't even say,

At this time, Pete wanted to go back on his word. There was no way... The power of this research report is really inestimable, but unfortunately... It was agreed in advance that Xu Mang's next article on the field of gene editing The research report was published in Nature Medicine, but I didn't expect it to be so shocking.

All right!

I feel cheated! Editor-in-Chief Pete smiled wryly: I didn't expect... forget it, but I have a request... you calculate the time difference, we have to save the suspense until the last second, Twenty-three fifty-nine minutes and fifty-nine seconds.

...

Pete...you are... Professor Wedson smiled.

...

America,

half past eleven in the evening,

Professor Burton Richard stood in front of the computer, constantly refreshing the official website of Nature. The last thing he wanted to see was Xu Mang's name on the website. It was less than half an hour away, and his hopes were getting bigger and bigger.

Hello?

Banquo?

Yes...I'm waiting in front of the computer now. Professor Burton Richard smiled wryly, I hope nothing happens...

Professor Bancor said seriously: Absolutely impossible...Burton believes me, it is impossible to succeed...When is this already, how could there be a chance? Unless he has already handed over the content to Nature !

What is Nature? asked Professor Burton Richard.

no way...

He seems to have an aversion to Science, Professor Bancor said.

Then I'll keep refreshing, and I hope I don't come out. Burton Rich smiled bitterly: By the way...my team has fallen into a certain embarrassing situation, Banco...when will you help us? Solve it?

Banco said: No problem, find a time and you send the problem over, and I will solve it.

good!

Must Xu Mang hurry up! Burton Rich said seriously, Don't waste time, otherwise...this embarrassment will be lost.

Do not worry!

The problem must be solved before Xu Mang. Professor Ban Ke said, He doesn't have the conditions to experiment with life science at all, so don't worry.

time flies,

And the last five minutes,

Burton Richter's heart hanging on the knife edge was finally placed in a safe area, which was basically impossible.

He lost!

I really can't figure out why I'm so arrogant, I want to realize my bragging within a week, haha... Professor Burton Richard smiled, his words were full of admiration for Xu Mang. Disdain: Have you failed now?

actually...

Burton...you have taken advantage of it. Professor Ban Ke said, Xu Mang's time is much shorter than a week. First of all, the time from the United States to Huaguo must be excluded, and then sleep should be deducted. If you can make up the remaining two days, it is considered too much.

no way.

He said it himself. Burton Rich said indifferently: No one forced him.

indeed!

I have to say...Xu Mang's arrogance is a bit outrageous. Ban Ke said with a smile: If it takes a month, I think...you basically have no chance.

Burton Richard laughed aloud: It's God's arrangement.

words fall,

Burton added: I refreshed the last time, I'm getting older... I just started to feel sleepy at twelve o'clock.

this moment,

Burton Richard pressed the sacred F5 button, and the page changed in the next second.

this...

this...

Am I hallucinating?
