Chapter 17 Junior Researcher

"The immunity of leukemia patients is very low, so we must fully disinfect every time they come here. Bacteria that are common to us normal people, if placed on them, are likely to cause fatal infections." Dr. Liu helped while Cheng Xiang disinfected and said.

Cheng Xiang said he understood and did not find it complicated.

After the disinfection was completed, Dr. Liu took Cheng Xiang into the ward.

Through the mask, you can smell the faint smell of disinfectant in the air. Cheng Xiang did not ask to enter the ward. He just stood by the glass window at the door of the room, listening to Liu Sheng's introduction and looking at the people in the ward through the glass window. child.

One, two, three,...five...ten.

Suddenly, Cheng Xiang saw a vaguely familiar face.

The voice of Liu Yi from the side suddenly turned sad.

The middle-aged woman in the morning was wearing sterilized protective clothing and feeding gruel to her child, with a strong smile on her face.

"This child has a miserable life."

"She was diagnosed with acute leukemia four years ago and entered the warehouse three times in a row. Unfortunately, she relapsed again. I don't know if she will be able to survive this time. Her parents have tried their best. They sold everything they could at home and borrowed money from everywhere. Remember When I first came in four years ago.”

"This family is still very respectable now." Doctor Liu shook his head, "We are really at the end of our rope."

"Fortunately, a stranger helped them raise the cost of re-entering the warehouse this morning. If it weren't for this timely donation, it is estimated that this family would really not be able to survive."

"I hope God can open his eyes and bring some good luck to this child." Dr. Liu sighed with helplessness. As a doctor, the most helpless thing is to encounter this kind of situation. The type of chronic myeloid leukemia that Shen Luoyun suffers from has an 80% chance of clinical cure, but Shen Luoyun has encountered the 20% failure rate three times in a row. This can no longer be described as bad luck.

Cheng Xiang watched silently by the window for a while, not disturbing the warm moment between mother and daughter. I didn’t even ask such naive questions as why the doctor didn’t donate more money or the hospital just waived the fee when the family was already in so bad condition. Doctors also have families and have to eat, drink and take care of themselves. The hospital needs a healthy economy to maintain normal operations and treat more patients.

It’s not that doctors and hospitals are ruthless, but that their capabilities are really limited.

Cancer cannot be solved by donating money. Vaguely, Cheng Xiang felt the heavy responsibility of being a scientific researcher.

Passing by the windows one by one, Cheng Xiang listened carefully to Dr. Liu's introduction. In this way, more than an hour passed quietly.

"According to our clinical medicine statistics, except for a small number of childhood leukemias caused by viral infection and genetic defects, the vast majority are induced by chemical pollution."

"The main reason is the decoration of building materials."

"Children's immune function and physical tolerance are not as good as adults, not to mention that they are still in the period of rapid growth and development, so they are more sensitive to environmental pollution."

"The most typical decoration carcinogens are formaldehyde, benzene and TVOC."

"Now in the market, these things cannot be eliminated in any decoration. Although the requirements for building materials are much stricter in this regard, the building materials used for interior decoration are not the same. When there are too many building materials, carcinogens will have a cumulative effect."

"What's more, it is inevitable that some unscrupulous traders will pass off inferior goods, or some people will buy low-quality goods in order to save money on materials. Therefore, the situation of childhood leukemia has not been well controlled."

"Except for selecting good materials for interior decoration, generally speaking, it is best to leave it vacant for a summer. You must maintain frequent ventilation when you live in it. If you don't have this awareness and don't pay attention to your daily life, it will be difficult to say. Especially for families with children, if it really Unfortunately, it happens to both adults and children." Dr. Liu shook his head.

After hearing this, Cheng Xiang nodded seriously and looked at the time. It was already getting late. Doctors have a heavy workload and should not take up too much time. He immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Thank you Dr. Liu for your hospitality. I have benefited a lot." ."

"Haha, Dr. Cheng, I hope I can make some contribution to you scientific researchers. If you need anything for your work in the future, just give me a call."

"Then I won't be polite."

After some pleasantries, Cheng Xiang said goodbye. After leaving the cancer hospital, I got on the bus at the starting station and drove all the way to school.

Thinking of those innocent and pure eyes and the children's desire for life, Cheng Xiang couldn't calm down, "Although I can't do enough, I still have to do something."

In the blink of an eye, three days later, Cheng Xiang received a WeChat message from Tang Zhengming.

"Come to the office. Your appointment letter is here."

"okay!"

After three days of rest, although he was busy looking up some information in the dormitory, Cheng Xiang always felt that it was not the same, and the feeling of the research institute was better.

After receiving the notice, Cheng Xiang immediately packed up his instrument, went downstairs and drove all the way towards the research institute on a small electric donkey.

A short while later, Cheng Xiang appeared in Tang Zhengming's office.

"It came very quickly." Tang Zhengming took a look and said.

"Hehe, teacher, you don't know. I have no time to stay and have nowhere to go. It's really boring to stay in the dormitory." Cheng Xiang said.

"There's nothing we can do about it, the building's access system is like this. Here, take it." Tang Zhengming handed over two 16K notebooks with red shells and a document bag, "One is a lecturer's appointment letter, and the other is from the Institute of Biology The researcher’s qualification certificate, and the document bag contains some information related to the researcher.”

The moment you receive the certificate.

A familiar voice sounded in my mind.

Boss Ding Ding is here.

"Officially became a researcher, reached milestone events, and officially unlocked the research task system." I didn't have time to take a closer look, but when I heard the literal meaning, I understood the general meaning, and I felt happy. I was worried about how to earn more experience points. Now, it should be settled.

"The lecturer can take it easy for now. I'll probably let you take over one class at most this semester. The formal arrangements will probably be made next semester."

"Teacher will talk to you about the researcher's matters in detail."

Cheng Xiang nodded seriously.

"Researchers judge success or failure based on results. Because of your outstanding research results during your PhD, you don't have to start as an assistant researcher like other PhD graduates and go through two years of internship. Instead, you can directly become a junior researcher."

“Junior researchers can start their own research independently.”

"However, this is only the beginning of a research career, so funding is limited, do you understand?" Tang Zhengming explained, "Junior researcher funding is divided into three grades: A, B, and C. You will be in Category A is the highest, so the research funding for the first year is 10 million.”

“If results are produced within one year, the funding for the next year or the next project will be adjusted up or down based on the value of the results.”

"If no results are produced within one year, the funding for the second year will be halved."
