Vol 2 Chapter 2696: : Secrets of the Lab

Latest website: The two waited for a few minutes when they saw Stephen's car driving over from a distance.

"The two of you have been waiting for a long time. Marshall is inside. Let's go in now."

"it is good."

Under Stephen's leadership, the three entered the laboratory building together.

Compared with the outside of the building, the inside is a little more ordinary, and it is no different from an ordinary independent laboratory.

After entering, there are stairs on the left, but what Lin Yi didn't expect was that there was actually a basement here.

However, the entrance was locked and prohibited from passing through.

"Do you know this man named Marshall?"

Standing beside Li Chuhan, Lin Yi asked in a low voice.

"I checked yesterday. I used to be the dean of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. He resigned three years ago, and it seems that he has come to work here."

"A dean-level person, come to work here?"

In Lin Yi's view, the identity of the dean of a medical school, in terms of reputation, income, and status, is higher than that of the director of a private research institute.

In the world, the Moslick laboratory is not very well-known.

"It may be that the money is given enough, or the scientific research topics here are attractive enough."

"Which possibility do you prefer?"

"The latter." Li Chuhan thought about it and said with a smile:

"I am very interested in their research."

Lin Yi laughed, "You said so, I'm more interested in Mosrick."

Soon, the three of them went up to the fourth floor and met Marshall in the back office.

The other party is an old man in his seventies, but he still looks energetic, but his legs and feet are not very neat.

"Hey, old man, this is the person I introduced to you. My former student, Lee, is now a very good cardiac surgeon. This is her boyfriend, Mr. Lin Yilin."

"Hello, welcome to Moswick."

Marshall stretched out his hand and shook each of them separately.

After a simple greeting, the two were greeted to the office.

The content of the conversation also quickly entered the topic.

But Marshall left more time to Li Chuhan and asked her about many professional matters.

As for Lin Yi, it is more like a foil.

When the two were talking, Lin Yi kept listening silently.

Most of the topics stay in the fields related to genes.

What surprised Lin Yi was that Li Chuhan, who had always been invisible, had a lot of unique insights in this regard, which made the atmosphere of the conversation very positive.

Unconsciously, the two chatted for more than half an hour. If Stephen hadn't spoken, they might have continued to chat.

"Lee, Mr. Lin, I have arranged your positions in advance, please come with me."

Although Lin Yi was just a foil, under the aura of Li Chuhan, he also received the respect he deserved.

Under the leadership of Marshall, several people came to the third floor of the laboratory.

This is the location of the laboratory. There are more than a dozen rooms, large and small, and the staff are busy.

"Harvey!"

Marshall greeted and called a middle-aged man in his forties.

The man was blond and blue-eyed, with a big beard, and looked a little simple and honest.

"These two are new colleagues from China, and they will be with you in the future to conduct research on telomeres."

Harvey glanced at the two of them with a sloppy expression, and didn't seem to care.

"it is good."

After a while of communication, a man named Harvey took Lin Yi and Li Chuhan away and introduced them to the rest of the group.

"Here is the relevant research we have conducted over the years. In order to better integrate into the team, the two of you can look at the data first."

"it is good."

After setting up the two, Harvey left.

Lin Yi and Li Chuhan were also so happy, they were uncomfortable with an outsider beside them.

The place where the two were located was more like a laboratory data room.

There are several cabinets on both sides, and various materials are placed in them. If you want to read them all, it will take at least a week.

"I'll look at the data first."

After saying a word, Li Chuhan put his attention on the information.

Lin Yi was also very happy, seeing so much information, he was one of the top two, and it was just right for Li Chuhan to do this.

After more than an hour, Li Chuhan quickly flipped through more than 20 documents. If Lin Yi hadn't invited her to lunch, she might have continued to read.

At noon, the two found a restaurant and prepared to settle their lunch.

"How do you feel? Did you gain anything?"

"Their research directions are all genetic, and the main direction is related to the attenuation and regeneration of telomeres."

"If I remember correctly, the telomeres of chromosomes can affect human lifespan."

Li Chuhan nodded and said:

"A few years ago, there was a very popular concept of immortality in the medical community, which revolved around telomeres, but in recent years, there have been many fewer similar voices. I didn't expect that they are still doing related research."

"The investment industry in country M has reached a bottleneck. It is impossible to see profits in the short term. Could it be that such a concept was deliberately hyped up to steal investors' money?" Lin Yi said.

"Not necessarily, because in the category of mammals, humans have this particularity, and so far, there is no reasonable explanation."

"What particularity do you mean?"

"According to the survey, the heartbeat of mammals is roughly the same throughout their life. At about 1.1 billion times, the faster the heart beats, the shorter the lifespan. Almost all mammals conform to this feature, but humans are Exceptionally, between 2.5 billion and 3 billion, there is no relevant research and research to explain this."

"What do you mean, humans in the past may have conformed to this pattern, but for some reason, the genes have changed, resulting in an increase in the total number of heartbeats and a longer lifespan?"

Li Chuhan nodded and said:

"But it's all speculation, and there's no real evidence, but I think if you really want to extend your lifespan, or even the so-called immortality, the most important part is the telomeres of genetic cells~www.readwn.com~ You need to start here."

"It's no wonder that this laboratory has not been well-known for many years. Research in this area for more than ten or twenty years may not be able to produce results."

"Indeed, but in terms of science, I still hope that someone can stand up and do more research in this area, otherwise human thinking and vision will be limited."

"Makes sense."

"By the way, I forgot to tell you something." Li Chuhan put down his knife and fork and said:

"When I was looking through the materials, I found something."

"what's up?"

"One of the studies was a joint study conducted by the Moslick and Degdalon labs on the calculation of the decay rate of biological cells."

"Degdalon?"

"It's the official laboratory of country M."
