Chapter 57 – Big Moves In The Faculty Of Physics

Chapter 57 The big moves of the School of Physics

In the previous copy of 1665, the formula of the fifth generation imidacloprid obtained by Xu Yun has a very conspicuous hint:

【This is a good thing, but it is not so easy to really master it】.

Therefore, the entire recipe is not a fool-like one-click operation guide, it just gives some directions and structural expression graphics, and there are many links that Xu Yun needs to manually solve by himself—for example, the previous pheromone, and for example between the fourth and fifth generations targeted combination.

In layman’s terms, it is

You can’t get something for nothing.

However, compared with the circularization breakthrough from the third to the fourth generation, the difficulty from the fourth to the fifth generation is undoubtedly much smaller, that is, the span is relatively not that large.

The fourth generation defines the structure, and the fifth generation supplements the functions. The former is the key link of qualitative change.

So after establishing the direction of optimization for the fifth generation, Xu Yun assigned the tasks for the next stage:

“Old Qiu, next you will take Xiao Tang and Xiao Li to be responsible for the research and development of the same-sex attractant, and I will leave the derivation of the sodium ion channel receptor binding formula to me, and we will keep in touch at any time.

There are many existing examples in the same-sex decoy biosphere. The key lies in the conformational change blocking of the sensing domain. It is not particularly difficult to operate, so let’s set a time.

There are still nine days left for the laboratory to be used, so let’s strive for six days. Break through the lure within six days! “

Qiu Sheng heard the words, exchanged glances with Li Yan and the others, and nodded heavily:

“Old Xu, don’t worry, just leave it to me.”

After handing over the task of the laboratory to Qiu Sheng, Xu Yun simply packed up some materials, put on his normal clothes and left the laboratory.

Students who are not mad at the biology teacher should know it.

There is a channel on the membrane of all animals that allows a small amount of Na ions to enter the cell along its electrochemical gradient, that is, the sodium ion channel.

It was discovered by British scientists Hodgkin and Huxley, and can be divided into two types: voltage-gated and ligand-gated.

Sodium ion channels are the main triggers of electrical signals in all animals, and electrical signals are the basis for the control of a series of physiological processes such as nerve activity and muscle contraction.

Therefore, if the inactivation and deactivation of insect sodium ion channels can be regulated, the time of transmembrane sodium ion flow can be prolonged, and nerve excitatory conduction disorders can be caused, which can also accelerate the killing of insects.

According to the task assignment just now, the derivation of the sodium ion channel receptor binding formula will be handed over to Xu Yun alone. This is not an easy task, so he plans to go to the West District Library to check the information first.

However, just two steps away from the medical center, the phone in his pocket vibrated.

“If there is time before dark, I will goug your eyes~~~”

Xu Yun took out his mobile phone and looked, and there was a number marked on the caller number:

Pan Shuai.

Xu Yun was shocked when he saw this, and quickly pressed the call button:

“Director Pan, are you looking for me?”

A few seconds later, a masculine male voice came from the opposite side of the microphone:

“Well, it’s me, Xiao Xu, where are you?”

“I’m in the Central District, here at the Medical Center, and I’m going to check things in the West District Library.”

“That’s a coincidence, I just came out of the co-radiation laboratory, let’s meet at the entrance of the library?”

“Okay, just wait a moment, I’ll be right there!”

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yun didn’t dare to neglect, and hurriedly took a taxi to the west district.

After more than ten minutes, Xu Yun rushed to the gate of the AED in the West District alone with a small bag.

At this moment, there was a very familiar figure of Xu Yun standing at the door of the library.

This person looks to be in his early fifties, with a kind face and bright eyes, a bunch of bangs slanting from left to right on his forehead, and brown framed eyes.

The figure is not tall, but the back is extremely stalwart.

This person is Xu Yun’s other mentor, Pan Shuai, the first person in domestic quantum communication, Academician Pan.

Xu Yun walked quickly to this person and greeted him:

“Teacher, are you looking for me?”

“Oh, Xiao Xu is here.”

Pan Shuai turned around and nodded to Xu Yun, patted him on the shoulder casually, and pointed to the side:

“Come on, let’s talk while walking.”

Xu Yun followed obediently.

Perhaps because the School of Life Sciences is located here, the greening measures in the west area of USTC are quite complete, and you can see trails lined with trees everywhere.

Not long ago, West Lake, one of the scenic spots in the West District, introduced six black swans from the breeding base in East Shandong. The natural environment is more harmonious than the other two campuses.

Xu Yun and Academician Pan casually walked along a green path. After a while, Academician Pan started the conversation:

“Xiao Xu, your doctoral defense should be coming soon, right?”

Xu Yun picked a dead leaf from his shoulder and replied:

“It’s coming soon. It was supposed to be in May next year, but Director Tian helped me mention March next year. Specifically, it should be mid-March.”

Academician Pan nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.

Domestic on-the-job postgraduate defenses are usually in December, and full-time students are generally in May and June. However, Zhibo can occasionally make a special case, and the defense can be held in March, and then he continued to ask:

“Xiao Xu, I remember that your academic paper on biology has already been published?”

Xu Yun hummed and said with a smile:

“That’s right, five SCI articles were published last year, but only two are really valuable, and one barely made it to the second district.”

“That’s pretty good too.”

Academician Pan praised, stopped, and looked at Xu Yun seriously:

“So Xiao Xu, in the next half a year, are you interested in helping me here?”

“what?”

Xu Yun was taken aback when he heard the words, but after a long time, the rich scientific research experience accumulated in two lifetimes made him understand the meaning of Academician Pan’s words in an instant:

“Director Pan, is the school going to make a big move?”

As a graduate student in physics, it is very common for Xu Yun to be called by Pan Shuai or several other big bosses to help him. If it is just a simple general research topic, Pan Shuai doesn’t need to ask the above words.

Therefore, it is obvious that the research project that Pan Shuai hopes to start must be a project with an astonishingly high standard, and it is even so strict that Pan Shuai needs to come to an ‘interview’ in person!

Facing Xu Yun’s doubts, Pan Shuai nodded lightly:

“That’s right, recently we have made some technological breakthroughs in one… Well, one field, so we are going to launch a new project.”

Xu Yun glanced at him curiously:

“Director Pan, can you tell me about the project? Of course, if you want to keep the name secret, just pretend I didn’t ask.”

“It’s not that serious. The name can still be mentioned. After all, technology is the core.”

Pan Shuai smiled and waved his hands, looking confident:

“If there is no accident, we will conduct the fifteen photon entanglement experiment!”

There will be a testimonial on the shelves later, after 12:00 tonight, I will update the content of no less than five chapters!
