Rebirth of science and technology academic master

Huayuan

Every researcher and professor was overjoyed when they saw Qin Yuanqing's arrival and took the initiative to greet him. Their eyes were full of admiration and respect, as if they were seeing a sage.

Perhaps in the eyes of mathematicians, Qin Yuanqing is the world's number one mathematical god, and his reputation will last forever along with Newton, Gauss and other mathematical gods; perhaps in the eyes of physicists, Qin Yuanqing is the greatest physicist today, standing shoulder to shoulder with Newton and Einstein. Looking down at all the physicists in the world, he deserves to be worshiped by all physicists.

But in the eyes of chemists, Qin Yuanqing is also a master of chemistry. Whether he is developing nuclear fusion in the field of lithium electricity such as lithium-air batteries, he has changed the world and taken a huge step toward new energy.

Not only that, Qin Yuanqing has made great achievements in the fields of composite materials, special materials, etc. that the world looks up to. His related formulas and concepts have appeared in chemistry books and have become a name that students cannot avoid when learning chemistry. I don’t know how many chemistry students came into contact with the relevant polymer theory founded by Qin Yuanqing. They were so big that they grabbed their hair with their hands and became bald within a year or two.

Of course, for mathematical men, baldness is never a big deal.

He's gone bald, but he's also become stronger!

"Academician Qin, this is Academician Li, who studies ceramic composites and biocomposites in materials science. He is a leader in this field!" President Zhou said with a smile when introducing a professor.

Biocomposites?

Qin Yuanqing's heart moved slightly.

"Biocomposites?" Qin Yuanqing became interested: "I wonder which one Academician Li is studying?"

Academician Li said a little cautiously: "I mainly work on HA/Ti!"

Academician Li was only elected as an academician of the Academy of Engineering in the past two years. Although he is almost sixty years old and more than twenty years older than Qin Yuanqing, Academician Li still seemed a little nervous when facing Qin Yuanqing.

Even though they are both academicians, their status is very different.

When Qin Yuanqing was elected as an academician, he broke countless hidden rules, overcame countless difficulties and obstacles, and became an academician in one fell swoop. And he was not an academician of the Academy of Engineering or the Chinese Academy of Sciences alone, but directly became an academician of both academies that year.

It was in 2010 that Qin Yuanqing was elected as an academician of the two academies. When Qin Yuanqing was 20 years old, he was extremely young, but now 15 years have passed. In contrast, Academician Li was just elected as an academician, ranking at the bottom among academicians. To be elected as an academician, in addition to his achievements in his own research field, Harbin Institute of Technology also made great efforts.

When Qin Yuanqing heard that it was HA/Ti, he immediately knew that it was a composite material of hydroxyapatite and titanium, which made the interest on his face even stronger.

Although he has not studied it carefully, he still understands it and has done some research.

As one of the more cutting-edge research directions in the field of materials science, hydroxyapatite and titanium composite materials are generally regarded as artificial bone materials in the new century. If this technology breaks through, it will have a huge impact on industries such as medical and bionic machinery.

Academician Li saw Qin Yuanqing's interest and said excitedly: "We are currently working with Fudan University and several other universities to develop a bionic artificial bone that can replace human bones and can be controlled through neural electrical signals. If this If the technology is finally successful, it may be possible to completely solve the problem of amputated limbs."

"Controlling machinery through neural electrical signals? I'm afraid it's not easy, right?" Qin Yuanqing said.

"As expected of Academician Qin, he saw the key to the problem at a glance. In fact, the biggest problem we are facing now is the collection and feedback of neural signals. Especially in the area of ​​feedback, it is not easy to simulate neural signals to deceive the brain. It's an easy thing." Academician Li didn't hide anything and said quite frankly.

It's just some nonsense to deceive laymen. In front of experts, if you reveal something unreliable immediately, you will only be looking for humiliation.

Qin Yuanqing nodded slightly, then showed a thoughtful look.

Nowadays, the method used to amputate a limb is often a prosthetic limb. However, there is no problem with prosthetic limbs for people to stand. If the rehabilitation training is done well, as long as they do not exercise strenuously such as running, they can even return to normal walking, which is no different from normal people.

But this is only for ordinary amputated limbs. Some serious injuries will not only damage the lower legs, but also the ends of the spinal nerves. In such a situation, even the bowels and urine cannot be controlled normally. Even if a prosthetic limb is installed, it is of no use. It is just equivalent to Just a decoration.

And bionics technology gives patients with amputated limbs a chance for rebirth.

Of course, research on this technology began many years ago. Researchers are trying to imitate neural electrical signals through physical methods, which is what people often call neural access technology. It’s just that it is currently in the research stage, both domestically and overseas. Judging from the current public results, it is not perfect enough to allow patients with spinal nerve damage to stand up again. The difficulties they face are still inaccessible.

Qin Yuanqing is not only proficient in the field of materials science, but the key is that he also belongs to everyone in medicine. He clearly understands the difficulties faced by this technology.

In medicine, neurology has always been a tricky field, especially when it comes to spinal nerves, where the situation becomes particularly complicated.

The end of the spinal nerve is damaged and the entire lower body is paralyzed. Once the cancer cells spread, especially to the brain, and the cancer cells press on the nerves, the patient will almost be sentenced to death.

These are related to neurological aspects, which shows how difficult it is in medicine.

Regardless of neurology, neurology has become a separate department. In fact, people's understanding of neurology is still very limited, and they have only seen the tip of the iceberg.

In order to solve the problem from a technical level for patients with amputated limbs, one must solve the problem is to simulate nerve signals to deceive the brain, but the brain is not so easy to deceive.

Qin Yuanqing looked thoughtful. Regardless of the other scholars and professors who were looking at him with big eyes, his mind was running rapidly, thinking about the solution to this problem.

After a long time, Qin Yuanqing asked: "Bring me paper and pen."

At this time, a clever doctoral student brought the paper and pen to Qin Yuanqing. Qin Yuanqing picked up the pen and drew on the paper, looking thoughtful, and then revised it. An hour later, Qin Yuanqing showed a smile on his face.

"Academician Li, I think this problem is no longer a problem!" Qin Yuanqing looked very happy.

"Academician Qin, do you mean that you can solve this problem just by knowing Kung Fu?" Academician Li asked in surprise.

"If nothing else, I should have solved this problem!" Qin Yuanqing said, pointing to what he drew on the paper: "You see, a nerve signal modem can be implanted at both ends of the damaged segment of the spinal nerve. , and at the same time, the damaged nerves are covered with a simulated nerve sensing device made of molybdenum/titanium alloy."

"This is equivalent to building a bridge on the damaged spinal nerve, replacing the signal transmission between neuron cells with electrical signals, and using the "translators" at both ends to realize the translation of electrical signals and nerve signals, and control the built-in electric drive device The titanium alloy skeleton is used to restore the movement function of the patient's legs." Qin Yuanqing also did not hide his secrets. He taught everyone everything: "Regarding this plan, I think you can cooperate with my laboratory and then use it in the hospital. Looking for volunteers for clinical trials!”

It has already appeared in Qin Yuanqing's mind that many patients with amputated limbs will be equipped with this brand-new prosthetic limb and then be reborn, because such prosthetic limbs are undoubtedly much more advanced than previous prostheses and will not be the same as real legs. Too obvious a difference. Many people who suffer from car accidents or other disasters and have to have their limbs amputated will also try to reduce the psychological damage of the injury as much as possible.

Of course, Qin Yuanqing's mind is still there, and it will continue to expand, and he can even develop bionic people!

Bionic humans, also known as simulated robots, have always been a very popular frontier in scientific research. It's just that bionic people are facing a big dilemma. They have been standing still for many years. Relevant institutions at home and abroad are still in the trial production stage of bionic people.

Since February 5, 2013, Britain has created the first bionic human, named 'Rex'. The manufacturer used artificial prostheses and organs from all over the world, as well as artificial pancreas, kidney, The spleen and trachea also realize the automatic focusing function of artificial eyes. When the first bionic man appeared in public for the first time, it caused a sensation all over the world. People were speculating when the bionic man would enter human society and become a helper to mankind.

Unfortunately, more than ten years have passed, androids are still in the laboratory stage, and they are still far away from leaving the laboratory. This can't help but disappoint a large number of otakus. They all want to buy a 'her' bionic person, and then they can have sex when they have nothing to do. They don't have to go out to make girlfriends or coax women, because they can have the most beautiful life. Good companion!

Of course, Qin Yuanqing thought of developing bionic humans because bionic humans can play a big role and become a helper to humans. They can even shine in the space age.

In a sense, androids are robots, but they are not pure robots. Compared with robots, androids are undoubtedly more acceptable to humans.

On the other side, Academician Li's eyes lit up when he heard what Qin Yuanqing said. He did not expect that Qin Yuanqing would solve the problems that had troubled them for so many years in their research project.

He cannot guarantee 100% now that what Qin Yuanqing said will definitely come true, but he has a hunch that what Qin Yuanqing proposed is absolutely reliable and completely possible to come true.

Sure enough, Academician Qin is worthy of being Academician Qin, he is simply a god!

Academician Li was deeply impressed. He finally understood why there is such a saying in the scientific community: If you encounter a problem but cannot solve it, the best way to solve it is to get Professor Qin interested in it. Believe me, Professor Qin will solve it soon.

The third update is at noon
