"It's cited 77 times a month." Professor Cai looked at "Cresolution of the Crescent Moon" and laughed: "Everyone is trying hard to explore the potassium channel function."

"Of course I have to work hard. The next paper to make the potassium channel function has almost booked the location of the top journal. As far as I know, Science and Nature are contacting well-known laboratories, hoping to get a repetitive paper." Dean Liu's turkey smile was iconic, and his loose throat was shaking and shaking, making people feel his compliment.

Professor Cai laughed twice and said, "The second one can still be used on CNS, what should I do if the third one is made?"

"As long as the new channel function is fascinating, CNS will not stick to it. Novelty can be used as a standard for potassium channels, but aspirin." As an old drug that has been invented for 100 years, aspirin will be re-listed in top journals from time to time because it has some new discoveries against him.

By the same token, potassium channels have various functions. If they are important functions, they will naturally have the opportunity to enter top journals.

Of course, in-depth study of the function of the potassium channel itself has exceeded the scope of the papers made by Yang Rui, but this is the case with top journals, and citations are also indispensable.

Professor Cai did not think about this situation carefully, and nodded involuntarily and said, "If you say this, you really have a chance. No wonder so many laboratories are involved."

"If everyone is competing for second place and I heard that two or three well-known laboratories are involved in the research, it should be a problem."

"Yes, it means that everyone has seen new hot topics... Well, those who publish papers now should be retreating from difficulties. If there are dates or not, they will beat them first. If they can publish them, it means that foreign journals also like to follow the trend."

Dean Liu laughed out loud.

Professor Cai picked up a few more well-known journals and read them. After a while, his expression became more serious and said, "Imperialism will not kill me."

"Ah?" Dean Liu couldn't figure out whether he was telling a joke or talking seriously.

Professor Cai snorted, without a smile, but without any angrily waved his hand, and said, "Several authors repeated Yang Rui's experiments, but did not find the mutant gene that was combined, so they complained here."

"What are you complaining?" Dean Liu's turkey smiled and put away. He didn't say every word of the paper, but at least he had to carefully consider it. No paper could complain.

Professor Cai curled his lips and said, "Isn't no one able to repeat the experiment yet? They are holding it."

"No one has repeated it yet?" Dean Liu repeated it. He was not as relaxed as Professor Cai.

Scientific experiments can definitely be repeated. If there are some unshakable foundations for human civilization, that's it.

Two small balls landed at the same time, don’t you believe it? You can watch me jump from the bottom of the station.

A mirage is a distorted light. Don’t believe it? Look up.

The family-born ancient recipe for treating cancer? Give a chestnut, then another chestnut, and then another chestnut. Thank you, please keep your arrest warrant.

Of course, it takes time to repeat the experiment.

Haruko Koboya, a Japanese beautiful scientist who has been regarded as a standard example of paper fraud, is just because the experiment cannot be repeated.

Before this, Japan praised Haruko Koboya. To be honest, if her research becomes a reality, she cannot guarantee that she won the Nobel Prize, but it is not difficult to nominate once or twice. However, due to the social inertia of Japan, in another twenty or thirty years, if she is not good enough, she will give Haruko Koboya a nomination like an education minister, if she is interested in politics.

However, everything fell on the issue that the paper cannot be repeated.

Before Kobokabata Haruko, every year, people fell down for the same reason, just like cutting leeks.

Professor Cai rethinked Yang Rui's paper and said, "I haven't heard of a completely repetitive experiment, but his paper is very logically clear, and I don't think it's a big problem."

"Well, there should be no problem." Dean Liu laughed twice, as if comforting himself or Professor Cai.

Professor Cai had a calm face, and his previous good mood was gone.

Yang Rui's experiment on potassium channels is logically smooth and beautiful, and the only problem lies in the selection of mutant genes.

To find mutant genes, you need to have a certain component of gas, or if you do it too much, you will naturally be able to do it.

For example, the slo channel found in Yang Rui's paper has a 10-fold increase in the conductivity of the slo channel.

This manifestation is not easy to measure. More importantly, the mutant gene must change the manifestation of this gene so that changes can be discovered.

Overall, the experiment designed by Yang Rui is a set of experiments that require time and funds. It takes enough time and funds to eventually produce results. It is also because of this logic that it attracts multiple foreign laboratories to participate. They are not afraid of spending money and time, but they are afraid of the risk of getting nothing.

However, how long and how much money is enough? No one can say until the experiment results are produced.

So, will Yang Rui commit fraud in papers just because he saves time or money?

Professor Cai was unwilling to think like this, but it is not without precedent for those talented and promising young people who suddenly make seemingly incomprehensible cheating.

The cruelty of scientific research makes young people in this field like soldiers charging towards machine gun positions. Only a very small number of lucky people can rush across Long Beach, receive rewards, and then become officers. Those who are unlucky or cannot stay will be eliminated.

If time is tight and if funds are tight, researchers must make a decision in a dilemma.

Professor Cai shook his head and said, "We should support Yang Rui, don't think about it all at first. There are so many people citing Yang Rui's papers now, and there are many famous people in the field of biology. It's impossible to say that so many people are blind. It's only been more than a month now, so what's strange about how repeating experiments can't be done. Yang Rui had done it for more than half a year."

"That's right." Dean Liu smiled and touched his head: "I'm thinking too much."

"That's why I said that imperialism is not going to die. Seeing that there are powerful papers and scholars here, they will say strange things." Professor Cai said this, but there was still a cloud in his mind.

After a while, Professor Cai said: "Don't there anyone in our college who is on this topic? Please take care of it, see what the situation is, and whether there is any place that needs our support."

President Liu said understandingly: "I will ask tomorrow."

After pausing, Dean Liu asked again: "What do you say about citing rewards?"

"Let it go first..." Professor Cai hesitated and said, "I'll go to Lao Tang's laboratory tomorrow to have a look."

It is also a good choice to learn about Yang Rui’s new research from the side.
