I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 227 Becoming an Academician
Monday, October 10.

Zhou Qiao took Murphy and Stephanie on another flight to Boston to participate in the award ceremony of the surgery competition and the offline academic exchange forum.

The venue is still the same Boston City Hall as last time.

Many people congratulated Zhou Qiao and greeted him warmly.

After the much-anticipated live broadcast of the surgery, everyone was completely convinced. The most important thing is that Zhou Qiao is only 24 years old now, and his future is immeasurable.

"Haha, Dr. Zhou, you are two beautiful ladies. It is said that Academician Domitri Cobb wants to take you three as his disciples. Academician Domitri comes from our Harvard University and is a Nobel Prize winner in medicine. He is highly respected. I used to When I was studying, I wanted to do research with him, but he still looked down on me. How enviable!"

Dr. Catrina from the Mayo Clinic came over to say hello, and after a few words, he released this gossip.

Dr. Katrina was ranked No. 3 in this competition, tied for third place with Dr. Isner of the Cleveland Clinic and Stephanie of the Iris Clinic.

However, he is a bit old, already forty years old. If this competition were held another year later, he would probably not be eligible to participate.

Of course, if the organizer relaxes the age limit further, such as 45 years old, he can still do it.

Many countries hold similar competitions. For example, China sets the age of young doctors under 45 years old.

In China, the same is true for applying for "outstanding youth".

There is even the latest news that the National Natural Science Foundation of China has clearly relaxed the age limit for women to apply for "distinguished youth" from 45 to 48 years old.

After all, many people are in their thirties after graduating with PhDs, and women are still pregnant and breastfeeding, which will take some time.

If you have a second or third child, you won't be able to start a career.

"Academician Domitri Cobb?" Zhou Qiao had heard of it, but he really didn't pay attention to who it was.

Murphy and Stephanie's eyes also lit up, and they were very moved. If there is an academician master, there is no need to worry about academic aspects in the future.

But after all, it was hearsay, and the academician didn’t contact them, so it was hard to act too arrogant.And they didn't know what Zhou Qiao meant.

Soon, the awards ceremony officially began.

As the No.1 and champion, Zhou Qiao will receive particularly generous prizes!
In addition to a trophy engraved with his name and a cash reward of US$50, the "Yagemohui" Group will also award a "Prometheus-300" surgical robot worth US$3000 million, exclusive to the doctor.

Zhou Qiao's name is also engraved on the nameplate of this surgical robot.

This reward makes everyone extremely envious.

Although the contestants basically come from head hospitals, and each hospital has more or less several or even dozens of such surgical robots, there are not many contestants who have used this kind of surgical robot. Among the more than 1000 people, at least 600 have never been touched.

The main reason is that they are too young, and the hospital hopes that they can practice more surgical skills with their hands instead of using robots.

Surgical robots are often used by senior and older experts.

Like Zhou Qiao, who owned an exclusive "Prometheus-24" surgical robot at the age of 3000, which is truly the only one in the United States.

But Zhou Qiao felt it was a bit useless because Iris Clinic did not have the conditions to use this kind of surgical robot.

The Iris Clinic is just a small clinic. There are no more than ten cats and kittens in total, and it lacks various supporting and rescue facilities.For major surgeries, he always goes to community hospitals or the University of California Medical Center.

Therefore, he decided to donate the latest "Prometheus-300" surgical robot worth $3000 million to the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center.

The dean of the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center was very happy when he heard about it and expressed his gratitude to Zhou Qiao for his generosity.He also said that if he wanted to use it in the future, he could come over and use it at any time.Zhou Qiao always enjoys free use and priority rights.

In fact, Zhou Qiao also had this small idea. The reason why he donated to the San Francisco Medical Center instead of the Los Angeles Medical Center was because of this consideration.Sure enough, the San Francisco Campus Medical Center is still very good.

As No. 2, Murphy's prizes are slightly weaker. In addition to the large trophy with his name engraved on it, there is also a cash reward of 80 US dollars, but there is no surgical robot.

The three No. 3 players are even worse. They only have big trophies with their names engraved on them and a reward of US$50.

In addition to trophies with names engraved on them, the fifteen contestants in fourth, fifth and sixth place will receive cash prizes of US$30, US$20 and US$[-] respectively.

However, it's pretty good.To be dazzling, one must be among the top three, especially the champion and runner-up.

In the following academic exchange forum, in addition to debates and speeches by young doctors, there were also academic reports by several academicians.Among them was the lecture of Academician Domitri Cobb, who was said to want to accept them as his disciples. Zhou Qiao, Murphy and Stephanie all went to listen to it. It must be said that this big man's level was very high. Zhuji, many of his views are at the forefront of the world, which is refreshing.

It is worth mentioning that this boss is also one of the eighteen academician jury members, but Zhou Qiao had no impression of it before.

Mainly because this boss was very low-key and basically sat in the corner the whole time without asking many questions.

But there is no doubt about this big man's "status in the world".

Academician Domitri Cobb was born in New York, USA, in 1957. He is an American medical scientist and a professor of medicine at Harvard University. He is committed to studying the role of p53 and other tumor suppressor genes in the development of cancer.

In particular, research on new anti-tumor therapies related to tumor suppressor proteins, and its research results on Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) protein have laid the foundation for the development of VEGF inhibitors for the treatment of renal cancer.Currently, multiple VEGF inhibitors for the treatment of renal cancer are on the market.

On October 2019, 10, Academician Domitri Cobb, together with two other scientists (from Johns Hopkins University in the United States and Oxford University in the United Kingdom), made a discovery that allowed people to understand how cells sense oxygen at the molecular level. The basic principles, thus winning the 7 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

Prior to this, the academician had already won various awards.

This big man is kind-faced, gentle and elegant, speaks slowly and slowly, and has endless wisdom in his eyes. Moreover, he has very good eyesight and does not wear glasses. There are so many people listening to the lecture, and Academician Domitri actually noticed the crowd at a glance. Zhou Qiao, Murphy and Stephanie.

Of course, it is also possible that these three people are too dazzling.

Young, handsome men and beautiful women, especially Murphy and Stephanie, always surround Zhou Qiao on the left and right, trying not to attract attention.

Academician Domitri noticed them, and during the lecture, he specifically called them by name and asked the three of them to answer some questions respectively. This made everyone envious.

Fortunately, Zhou Qiao, Murphy, and Stephanie were all knowledgeable, and the answers they gave were so remarkable that Academician Domitri couldn't help but nod.

To say it's bad, maybe Murphy is worse.

The main reason is that her personality is still a bit cold, and she still likes to keep a straight face in public. In terms of expression, she is not as generous as Zhou Qiao and Stephanie, who are smiling and smiling.

But Murphy is only 19 years old, and can be said to be the youngest among the more than 1000 people present. Academician Domitri seems to have investigated Murphy's information. Although Murphy behaved a bit "strange", Academician Domitri Still nodding and smiling, he liked her very much.

After the lecture, someone came to inform Zhou Qiao and the others that Academician Domitri wanted to invite them to lunch.

Zhou Qiao and the other three looked at each other and naturally went happily.

What I ate was a very ordinary restaurant, ordinary steak, but the taste was very delicious.

Academician Domitri was very funny and approachable, making the lunch atmosphere quite harmonious.

"I wonder if the three of you are willing to be my apprentices. If you are willing, you can come to my own research institute to serve as a scientist." When the conversation was almost over, Academician Domitri took the initiative.

Stephanie and Murphy looked at Zhou Qiao. Naturally, the two women followed his lead and waited for him to express his stance.If Zhou Qiao is not willing, then they will not agree.

Of course Zhou Qiao would not refuse, and immediately said with a smile: "It is our honor to have you as our teacher."

Then he stood up and bowed slightly.

Murphy and Stephanie hurriedly followed each other, feeling a bit like a married couple.

"Sit down, sit down, don't be too polite." Academician Domitri pressed his hands, gesturing for them to be more casual.

After the three of them sat down, Zhou Qiao thought for a while and couldn't help but said: "Teacher, as you know, I have a clinic in San Francisco, and my business is usually quite busy."

Academician Domitri laughed, shrugged and said, "What does it matter? I don't need you to be at the institute all the time.

I can give you some research ideas and research methods from a distance.If you have any new ideas or research directions, you can always put them forward and we will discuss them together.

In addition, I will have a scientific examination project in a while. If you are willing, you can also participate. "

"That would be great and we will definitely participate."

Academician Domitri thought for a while and said: "When this academic forum is over, you can go to my institute. I have several review manuscripts for journals and I will tell you about them. You can go back and check the literature and try to write them. Give it a try.”
