Black Tech Scholar

The curtains were tightly closed, and the room looked a bit dark, even the lights were yellowish.Blink and blink, quite a feeling of coming to a haunted house.The whole room was filled with the smell of disinfectant, Liao Yuanbai frowned slightly.The patient was lying quietly on the hospital bed. Dr. Wang looked at the patient and said softly, "The patient has passed the excitement period, and now he has entered the paralysis period." When he said this, he shook his head gently.

Obviously, the patient is powerless, and generally speaking, at this stage, it is already the countdown to death.After entering the paralysis period, it is usually only 6 to 18 hours.In other words, the patient must die after eighteen hours.Liao Yuanbai looked at the abnormal relaxation of the patient's facial muscles, and could see that the patient had convulsions.

He rubbed his brows and said, "It has entered the final stage. If you don't receive treatment, you will definitely die." Dr. Wang nodded in agreement. There is still some peculiar smell in the room, which is obviously caused by the patient's defecation. Made after incontinence.Such patients are indeed very suitable for use in clinical trials, and they are already incurable.If antibodies were injected into his body, it would be best if he could survive.Even death actually has little to do with them.

Of course, injecting antibodies should not be done by them.Liao Yuanbai handed the box to Dr. Wang, and said softly, "It contains antibodies to rabies virus. If the patient's family members have no objections, let him use it." Although this is not the first clinical experiment for Liao Yuanbai, it is accurate It should be the second time.

For the first time, the experimental data were handed over to him by others.That is to say, it is impossible for him to do the clinical experiment himself, but this time, he must do it himself.After all, he wanted to witness the birth of a miracle.In other words, he wanted to see a rabies patient recover with his own eyes.If this antibody is really successful once, he will not need to control the subsequent data. Unless there is a large error, otherwise, it is impossible for him to follow up and investigate every clinical experiment.

But the first one, he must follow up and investigate until the patient is completely cleared of the rabies virus.

Dr. Wang looked at the small box in his hand and took a deep breath.Success or failure will depend on this time, if the antibody developed by Liao Yuanbai is really effective for rabies patients who have entered the paralyzed stage.Well...the rest of the rabies aren't a problem at all.In other words, Liao Yuanbai really conquered the rabies virus that has plagued mankind for a long time.

His hands trembled slightly, and the moment he opened the box, he gasped.That's right, it was just a breath of cold air.He saw a tube of reddish liquid in the box. Is this the antibody Liao Yuanbai mentioned?Dr. Wang looked at Liao Yuanbai with some doubts in his eyes.After all, it was the first time he used this kind of thing, and Liao Yuanbai had to explain the specific usage.

Pursing his lips, Liao Yuanbai told Dr. Wang how to use the antibody.After a while, Dr. Wang injected the antibody into the patient's body.When he walked out of the ward, Liao Yuanbai said softly, "Observe for a period of time first. If there is nothing to do for eighteen hours, it proves that the patient's dangerous period has passed. Next, we need to check the amount of rabies virus in the patient's body. I hope the family members can cooperate with several pathological experiments."

The family member looked honest and honest, she was a middle-aged woman, and she kept nodding when Liao Yuanbai spoke.Obviously, she had nowhere to go, so she could only trust Liao Yuanbai.

Smiling at the middle-aged woman, Liao Yuanbai said, "You don't have to worry too much. After the antibody is injected, if the patient has no rejection reaction for eighteen hours, it proves that the patient will be fine." , he patted the middle-aged woman's shoulder lightly, "Besides, when we were doing the experiment, we had already thought of the situation that the patient would reject the antibody. That is to say, unless the patient's constitution is particularly special, the general meaning Basically, there is no such problem.”

"En." The middle-aged woman covered her mouth, nodded, and said to Liao Yuanbai excitedly, "Thank you, Dr. Liao, if it weren't for you, my family..."

Liao Yuanbai shook his head, "Next time someone in your family is bitten by a dog or an animal, I advise you to go to the hospital for rabies, and you must go as soon as possible. There is no delay, and some medical knowledge is also useful. It is necessary to know, otherwise in a similar situation, if I hadn’t been lucky enough to develop the antibody this time, maybe you would really have to watch him die.”

After speaking, Liao Yuanbai and Dr. Wang walked forward together with Dr. Chen, and the patient's family stayed behind to watch the patient.Dr. Wang sighed as he walked, "Dr. Liao, this time is thanks to you. Otherwise... well, you don't know, people in the countryside don't have much medical knowledge, and only when they get sick do they ask their parents to tell their grandma what they want." Treat patients. Just like the woman just now, her husband was bitten by her dog several months ago. Not only did she not come to the hospital for vaccination, but she felt that nothing happened. Rabies is already on its way."

"The science popularization work is still not in place." Liao Yuanbai thought for a while, "Dr. Wang, if the patient has any problems, you must contact me in time." Liao Yuanbai still gave Dr. Wang another order. Of course, he also believed that the patient should not be able to What is the big problem? "After the patient wakes up, he needs to be hospitalized for observation for a period of time. During this period of time, we still need to do several pathological experiments. I think you know it, Dr. Wang. The patient must cooperate. This antibody is not The most perfect, there are still some slight defects. But this kind of defect does not have any side effects for the patient, but the recovery speed will be slower, and I still need to make some changes."

"Okay." Dr. Wang nodded, even if Liao Yuanbai didn't say anything, Dr. Wang would know.Drugs used in clinical trials are more or less flawed.After all, no experiments have been done on humans before, but these defects may have no side effects on the human body, and may have an impact on the human body.Generally speaking, in order to conduct clinical trials, it is necessary to ensure that the drug itself does not have any influence factors on the human body.

After sending Liao Yuanbai away, Dr. Wang went back and took a look at the patient's condition.Although he is the patient's attending doctor, it is impossible for him to stare at the patient all the time.What's more, he is not the only patient suffering from rabies.It's just that the other families had already discussed with Dr. Wang, but when it came time to test the medicine, they all backed down.

Because it has been stated in the contract that if the patient dies in clinical trials, it needs to be identified.If the patient's death has nothing to do with the medicine, neither the hospital nor the experimental party will compensate.

This discouraged many family members, only this middle-aged woman couldn't hold on anymore.Originally, her husband was the pillar of the family, but now the pillar has fallen, the child is still young, and there are old ones on top, she must not be able to do it alone.Of course, she can only hope that this new drug is really effective.

The woman observed her husband outside the ward, and other family members of the patient gathered together to discuss.They stood beside the woman and chattered, "I think there is something wrong with the experimental method. You said that the person called Doctor is about the same age as my grandson. I feel like a liar, maybe What human experiments are you still doing?"

"Yes, that's right, how can there be such a small doctor. I think it is the hospital and scammers who came to deceive you. Just wait, when the time is gone, the hospital will have to charge sky-high medical fees."

"You guys said, it's not some kind of messy biochemical experiment applied to the human body." An aunt said in a low voice, "I think those people like to do biochemical experiments on other people, let alone read the contract written , If you don’t pay compensation, you are obviously shirking responsibility. Oh, what are you talking about in the society of Huaguo.”

"That's right. Look at how good the medical treatment in the Beacon Country is. It's not like the Hua Country. From top to bottom, no one will shirk responsibility."

The middle-aged woman's mind is in a mess, but Dr. Wang has told him before that the doctor who developed this antibody has successfully developed an anti-cancer drug.He is a very experienced and knowledgeable doctor.Although she was indeed too young when she saw this doctor today, the middle-aged woman still chose to believe the words of the attending doctor.

Their family is poor and white, and there is nothing worth cheating at all.The attending doctor knew that their family couldn't even afford the current medical expenses, so how could there be any sky-high medical expenses.

The middle-aged woman didn't speak, but the other family members of the patients next to her spoke enthusiastically, and even started discussing loudly.

When the nurse came over, she glared at the group of people and said unceremoniously, "What are you doing? This is a hospital, and the patients need to rest. If you continue to speak so loudly, please Going to talk outside the hospital."

The voices of the patient's family members gradually became quieter. After the nurse left, someone whispered, "What's the air, isn't it just a little nurse? Humph!" The patient's family members dispersed slowly, and the middle-aged The woman clutched her handkerchief tightly, her eyes fixed on her husband in the ward.

Sitting in the car, Dr. Chen looked at Liao Yuanbai hesitantly.He thought for a while, and then said, "Dr. Liao, I don't quite understand. In fact, these tasks can be done directly by the hospital. We don't need to come forward. Why..." Why do we still have to come forward?Dr. Chen looked at Liao Yuanbai without blinking. This was his greatest confusion.

"Because I want to know how far the antibody we are researching can reach." Liao Yuanbai smiled at Dr. Chen, with some brilliant light in his laughter, "Dr. Chen, you also saw the first clinical experimenter today. The patients have already entered the paralysis period, if we can treat the patients in this period, doesn’t it mean that our new drug has completely conquered the rabies virus?”

"That's the truth." Dr. Chen pursed his lips, thought for a while, and then continued, "I just don't think it's necessary to see this patient in person."

"I just want to witness this miracle with my own eyes." Liao Yuanbai shrugged his shoulders, looked at Dr. Chen and said with a smile, "Does Dr. Chen not want to see how the antibody he developed turned into a miracle? ?”

When he said this, Dr. Chen's blood almost started to boil, that's why.It turned out that Liao Yuanbai wanted to see whether the antibody he developed could really treat rabies patients.He was still thinking about it, and Liao Yuanbai added, "We need to follow up patients for data reporting. As you know, our antibody is not in the perfect state, and we need some supplements."

"Yes." Dr. Chen nodded, "That's why we still need to conduct several pathological experiments. This antibody can continue to be changed."

"Wait for the news. If Dr. Wang doesn't call within [-] hours, we can directly record the data of the patient's cure and the situation of the virus being cleared." Liao Yuanbai put his hand on the car window, thinking Thinking about it, he said to Song Song who was driving, "Brother Song, you send me and Dr. Chen back to the laboratory. Dr. Chen and I still have some things to do, are you free today?"

"En." Listening to the conversation between the two, Song Song understood a little bit, but also didn't quite understand it. He didn't want to guess what was going on.He nodded slightly, turned a corner, and sent Liao Yuanbai and Dr. Chen back to the laboratory.

When he came to the laboratory, Liao Yuanbai was looking for the data, while Dr. Chen was looking at the changes in the antibodies.They are doing separate experiments. If the antibody does not produce any mutations, it means that the patient will not have any problems.Liao Yuanbai managed to find out all the data, put it on the table and began to study it.

Dr. Chen said to Liao Yuanbai, "No problem, the results of repeated tests are normal."

Nodding his head, Liao Yuanbai thought that after modifying the antibody, he could go abroad to continue studying high-energy physics with peace of mind.Speaking of which, it is already April now, and it has been almost a year since he left Mills University.He was still quite tired from doing this day and night.

Fortunately, even though he was a little tired, this matter was coming to an end.This is the most gratifying thing. After the experiment was over, Liao Yuanbai took all the data home and seriously studied whether the data could be modified to make the antibody easier for the human body to absorb.

Dr. Wang did call Liao Yuanbai eighteen hours later, and he said with a relaxed tone on the other end of the phone, "Dr. Liao, when we checked the patient today, we found that the patient's symptoms seemed to be much easier. That is to say, the antibody you developed has already produced an effect. But as for the effect, we are still not clear. Look, did you send someone to record the data, or should we directly record the data and hand it over to you? "

Because the hospital and the laboratory are mutual in this regard, if the laboratory cannot find manpower, it is normal for the hospital to record data.

"No need, I will come to the hospital to record the data. Because he is the first patient to use the antibody, I want to see how far he can go." Liao Yuanbai was wearing clothes at this time, he took a casual clothes and The notebook rushed to the hospital.

At this time, the hospital is crowded with people, and there are many patients who come to treat them.After being crowded for a long time, Liao Yuanbai came to Dr. Wang's office.It just so happened that Dr. Wang just returned to the office.After seeing Liao Yuanbai coming, he washed his hands first, and then said to Liao Yuanbai, "Dr. Liao, are you here alone today?"

Liao Yuanbai nodded, "Dr. Chen's research is very hard, I can come alone. By the way, has the patient's condition recurred?"

"No." Dr. Wang recalled and said, "The patient's condition is much better than yesterday. I found that the patient seems to be able to control his muscles. Although he has not fully woke up, the patient's condition has indeed begun to improve. Unexpectedly, Liao The doctor's antibody started to take effect so soon..." Originally, Dr. Wang wanted Rainbow to fart Liao Yuanbai, but Liao Yuanbai's expression seemed to be quite anxious.It didn't look like he was happy, more like he was thinking about something.

After a while, Liao Yuanbai said, "Doctor Wang, I want to do a pathological experiment now, can you communicate with the family first, and then I will bring some specimens back to do the pathological experiment?"

"Of course." Doctor Wang led Liao Yuanbai to the outside of the ward with a smile. After communicating with the middle-aged woman for a while, the middle-aged woman looked at Liao Yuanbai and nodded. Her lips were trembling. She looked at Liao Yuanbai and said, "Thank you." Dr. Liao, if it wasn't for you, I really don't know what to do."

"It's okay." Liao Yuanbai shook his head, and after taking the patient's specimen, Liao Yuanbai hurried back to the laboratory.He originally wanted to do the experiment alone, but he didn't expect Dr. Chen and another doctor to be in the laboratory.

Liao Yuanbai was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise, "Why are you also in the laboratory?" He had already given the two doctors a holiday, but he did not expect that these two were still in the laboratory, which is not normal.Dr. Chen said to Liao Yuanbai, "I knew that you would not stay at home honestly. Besides, you said yesterday that you will do pathological experiments, didn't you?"

Speaking of this, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the specimen in Liao Yuanbai's hand and said, "Have you brought the patient's specimen back?"

Liao Yuanbai rubbed his hair, sighed and said, "Really, you don't even cherish the holidays given to you. Okay, since you want to do pathological experiments together, come together."

After changing his clothes, Liao Yuanbai and the two doctors began to analyze the patient's condition, and then made data.

Dr. Chen said while looking at the experimental equipment, "Currently, the virus in the patient's body is gradually decreasing, and there is no problem with the antibody, and the virus is still being eliminated."

"Record the data." Liao Yuanbai, wearing white gloves, looked at the cells and said, "At present, more than half of the virus in the patient's cells has been cleared, and there are still some stubborn viruses and antibodies that are entangled. This is not easy to solve. According to the strength of the current antibodies, this part of the virus is still not cleared. Although the amount of this part of the virus is small and does not pose a threat, we must get rid of all the viruses."

"That is to say, we have to do the antibody experiment again." Dr. Chen said with a smile.

Liao Yuanbai raised his head, shook his head and said, "Not necessarily. After the antibody enters the human body, its function will gradually increase over time. Although this antibody is not perfect, it is enough to remove this part of the stubborn part. The virus is gone. We now need to conduct a comprehensive experiment to prove that our antibody can be effectively absorbed by the human body and even clear the virus when the human body does not have an overreaction."

"But at present, the antibody does not have any side effects. And...the human body will not make any resistance to the antibody." Dr. Chen took off his gloves and said to Liao Yuanbai, "I guess, wait for the patient's situation. After it stabilizes, we still need to do 2-3 more pathological experiments, so that we have enough data to support the modification of this antibody."

"That's right." Liao Yuanbai breathed a sigh of relief, "I went to see the patient today and he is in good condition."

"From the specimens you brought back, it can be seen that the antibody has produced an effect, and the patient's condition is gradually improving." Dr. Chen smiled, patted Liao Yuanbai's shoulder and said, "What a great invention this is , allowing humans to completely defeat the rabies virus.”

"Isn't it too early to say this now?" Liao Yuanbai raised his eyebrows and looked at Dr. Chen, "The patient is still lying on the bed, and we need to conduct a comprehensive examination to know the specific results."

"Okay, okay!" Dr. Chen responded to Liao Yuanbai with a smile. He pursed his lips but couldn't help but look up, which was quite funny, "As far as the patient is concerned, there should be no serious problems. By the way, did Dr. Wang say anything special?"

"No, but one is short of going to the hospital to record the data, otherwise how about you go?" Liao Yuanbai looked at Dr. Chen with some amusement. Obviously, Dr. Chen was too tired and didn't want to go to the hospital to record any data.Speaking of which, Dr. Chen may be the one who hates hospitals the most among the three of them.

This, Liao Yuanbai also noticed that when he went to the hospital with Dr. Chen last time, Dr. Chen's brows were always frowning, as if he had encountered something dirty. His expression obviously hated the hospital very much.

It is unrealistic for Dr. Chen to go to the hospital.In other words, you can only go to the hospital by yourself.But it doesn't matter, even going to the hospital is not a big deal.Although he didn't like the smell of disinfectant very much, but if he just went to the hospital, there was really nothing wrong.

Liao Yuanbai rubbed his hair, said with a smile, "Since Dr. Chen, you don't want to go, then I will go." The other doctor was stunned for a moment, and he blinked and said, "Forget it, let me go I contributed the least to the whole experiment. Dr. Liao did the clinical research plan, and Dr. Chen did the protocol. I don’t seem to have done anything, so I should record the data. And I am quite familiar with this part. , giving it to me is the best."

This doctor is indeed much clearer about data than Liao Yuanbai and Dr. Chen. Usually, this doctor is responsible for recording data, so he is very experienced in this area.And looking at the patient's data, if there is anything wrong, he can definitely find it immediately.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Liao Yuanbai wanted to chat with Song Song about going abroad recently, but he didn't have any confidence in his heart at the moment, and he didn't know whether he could go abroad again.Therefore, he still needs to chat with Song Song more.

And after this matter is resolved, he will start his own research on quantum field theory and NS equations.

Research in this area must not be sloppy, that is to say, he must rest well from now on.After arriving at Mills University, he must immediately devote himself to research.Strive to graduate and return to China as soon as possible, but think about it, it is still quite far away.Regardless of the difficulty of the subject, it is comparable to, or even superior to, the development of rabies antibodies.

After all, there is still a specimen of rabies antibody, but the other two subjects can be said to have been created out of nothing.This is much more difficult. When Liao Yuanbai walked out of the laboratory, his expression seemed a little decadent.

Song Song was stunned for a moment, and he asked a little puzzled, "Dr. Liao, I see that you have talked with Dr. Chen. Isn't this experiment a success? Why are you so downcast all of a sudden?" In Song Song's view, Liao Yuanbai succeeded. Academic research such as the rabies virus antibody can be eaten for a lifetime.Even, there is no problem in directly selecting professors and joining the National Academy of Sciences.

Maybe he will be honored as an academician, but Liao Yuanbai's frowning expression does not seem to be happy at all.

"Alas." Liao Yuanbai sighed, "Although this subject has been researched, I still have two subjects at Mills University, one on electromagnetism and quantum field theory and one on NS equations, no matter which one , seems to be more difficult than rabies antibody. When I think of these two subjects, I can't be happy at all." As he said, Liao Yuanbai rubbed his brows vigorously.

Song Song was stunned for a moment, "But, Dr. Liao, according to your current academic capital, even if you don't study these things, you can be an academician in Huaguo, right?" When he said it, he said it in a hype.According to his thinking, since Liao Yuanbai can make such a powerful thing, he should be rated as an academician.

"Knowledge is not advancing, it will retreat. If you don't study it in depth, you will definitely regress. Moreover, my biggest feeling is that if the brain is not used for a period of time, it will not be so bright." Liao Yuanbai lay on the chair, After thinking about it, he said, "Therefore, there is no stagnation in the study of knowledge, and you must move forward without hesitation."

"..." At this moment, Song Song didn't know what to say.Liao Yuanbai's words made sense, and he was a bit unable to refute.

However, Liao Yuanbai's face looked very tired.
