The Technology Tree of Xueba

Spark Science and Technology Research Institute, Wang Xiaoxiao, director of the genetic laboratory, and Tao Shengwen, director of the cell laboratory, were arguing fiercely.

The two of them are the most authoritative experts in the life science field of Xinghuo Technology.

It is now the end of 2028, and the Science and Technology Committee led by Zhou Yu is about to establish the most important research and development direction in the field of life sciences in 2029.

Xinghuo Technology has always adopted a development strategy of going hand in hand before.

Now that space activities have entered a critical moment, the genetic enhancement program and cell enhancement program that Xinghuo Technology is testing have discovered hidden risks.

The investment of time and materials has not allowed Xinghuo Technology to spread its investment in the two fields.

The most important thing is that these two technologies are not compatible, so we can only choose one to invest and temporarily abandon the other project.

Both Wang Xiaoxiao and Tao Shengwen stared at each other angrily, as if whoever persisted for a long time would win the final project.

Their usual relationship is very good, but it doesn't affect their tit-for-tat confrontation now, wishing that the other party would immediately admit defeat.

Behind them are two major interest groups, a huge interest group composed of hundreds of scientists and thousands of scientific research workers.

Even if it's not for themselves or for those who support them, they must not miss any detail and fight to the end with reason.

Once he loses this competition, the impact on the entire laboratory will be too great.

Scientists cannot obtain project approval and funding from the company, and even have to help the other party's scientists.

Even among scientists of the same level, one is the leader of the experimental project and the other is the deputy.

The difference in power and reputation between them is also very huge.

No one would be willing to be someone else's deputy, and no one wanted to give up their scientific research projects. They couldn't compromise and could only try their best to increase the weight of direct victory.

Zhou Yu saw Wang Xiaoxiao and Tao Shengwen staring at each other, but they didn't say a word.

The other scientists in the two laboratories also stared nervously at the scene.

Zhou Yu coughed lightly, breaking the embarrassing atmosphere at the scene, and said in a heavy tone: According to the detailed physical data of the astronauts collected by the quantum bracelet.

You have already analyzed the detailed data, especially the comparison of the body data of the astronauts who underwent body modification and those who did not.

The data doesn't lie, and the results of this comparison shock us.

Astronauts who have undergone body modification are not as adaptable to the environment as astronauts who have not undergone body modification.

This situation is completely beyond our surprise. The efficiency of body modification that costs a lot of resources is not even as useful as the development of a good space suit.

After careful analysis by scientists, the main problem of the body modification astronauts is the conflict between the genetic modification plan and the cell modification plan.

The modified cells only have a strong ability to transcribe the original gene, but a weak ability to transcribe the modified gene.

The functional protein expressed by the modified gene cannot adapt to the modified cells.

Even some functional proteins conflict with the modified cells and kill each other.

Tao Shengwen was the first to open his mouth and said: Mr. Zhou, the genetic modification plan has great shortcomings and great hidden dangers.

When we add exogenous genes to the human body, it will directly destroy the coordination of human genes.

Director Wang and the others claim to have understood the code of genes and can edit genes at will.

But can they really master the complex meaning of gene expression?

Some genes are not expressed continuously, but expressed in jumping regions. When encountering such genes, adding exogenous genes will mess up human gene expression.

What's more, there is also the phenomenon of gene mutation. The added exogenous genes do not form a stable double helix structure, and they are more likely to form gene mutations.

If you ask the scientists in the genetic laboratory, several of them have carried out genetic modification, but they themselves don't believe in this technology, so what future does it have?

Wang Xiaoxiao politely heard Tao Shengwen finished speaking, he finally couldn't help it, and responded angrily: Our scientists didn't use this technology, because it has certain irreversibility.

You can't regret using this technology, you can only use the previously saved genetic data to regenerate a torso through biological means, and then transplant the brain to this new torso.

Now this technique is only used by people with total torso failure.

After a brain replacement, a long period of restorative exercise is required.

If we scientists do this, people will be destroyed directly.

After Wang Xiaoxiao finished speaking, he also complained: Your cell transformation plan is not a perfect plan, and this plan also has many flaws.

The cells that have been modified by you will reduce the number of differentiations. Although the modified cells live longer, their universality is not as good as the original cells in the human body.

The cell modification method only strengthens the strength of the cell, but it affects other functions of the cell.

This is just a small problem, and its impact is not big. The biggest problem is that after the cell transformation, it will cause the addiction of the body. After that, the enhanced version of cell transformation can only be carried out continuously, otherwise the body will collapse.

Your cell modification plan also has great flaws, and it is not a qualified body modification plan either.

Zhou Yu was also helpless when he heard that they exposed each other's faults and told each other the shortcomings of each other's plans.

With the advancement of technology, many defects will inevitably be found in the technology that was considered excellent in the past.

This is why they only recruited volunteers to test the body modification program, but did not promote the program on a large scale.

Changes involving human genetic material and body cell structure must be carefully selected.

He saw that these two people were arguing, even if they quarreled for a few more days, they couldn't get a result.

Zhou Yu said with a straight face: You guys are going to compete in scientific research this time, and you don't need to expose your opponent's weaknesses. Previous body modification projects basically faced failure.

Even if this project is criticized as useless, it will not affect the next choice.

You have to convince me with a more advanced scientific research plan.

When Wang Xiaoxiao heard Zhou Yu's words, he shook his head helplessly and said, It's too difficult to design a new plan, and now I have no idea at all.

The genetic modification program is already the best functional protein composition imaginable. Even if other genes are replaced, it is only a temporary solution, not the root cause, and the current problems may still occur.

Tao Shengwen also frowned and said: Our laboratory already has an idea, because the cell transformation plan is the best choice in the future.

But with the scientific research strength of our laboratory, it is impossible to start this plan at all, and the materials it uses are too precious, and I am afraid that these precious materials will be wasted.

When Zhou Yu heard Tao Shengwen's words, he immediately understood Tao Shengwen's thoughts. He was going to study the mysterious substances obtained from alien civilizations.

You want to study the mysterious substance of alien civilization found on the moon. We are not sure about this kind of substance yet. Zhou Yu shook his head and refused.
