Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Two big things happened the second week after New Year's Day.

The prestigious academic journal Science chose last year, the top 10 scientific breakthroughs of the year in 2016, in accordance with established practice.

As the last puzzle of general relativity, the discovery of gravitational waves took the top of the list without suspension.

If the electromagnetic wave telescope is the human eye, then the gravitational wave detector is like the human ear, and henceforth humans can finally listen to voices from the universe.

The second is Cynthia 3.0, which most people probably don't even know what this thing is compared to the gravitational waves of the sensational world, but it's the closest human being has ever really been to becoming God.

With 473 genes, it contains the smallest number of genes necessary to sustain life, while at the same time being the simplest living organism humans can make today.

As for third place, solving the modified PDMS film of lithium branches was undisputed on the list.

This is undoubtedly a remarkable achievement for the material academic community, which has not seen a “major breakthrough” for many years. At the same time, the "seventh line of the periodic table of chemical elements is filled” was selected, and this year's chemical world is known as the gas wind.

Also on the list is Google's Alpha Dog, the ultimate learning system built by the Monte Carlo decision tree algorithm combined with the deep neural network algorithm, which makes it a worthy integrator in the field of artificial intelligence.

And the breakthroughs in space exploration technology, the seeds that humans are spreading into space, are emerging...

The results of these studies are ranked irrespective of their ranking, and, after all, results in different areas cannot be compared horizontally.

Notoriously, however, the list given in Science each year reflects, to some extent, the subjective opinion of the editor of the journal.

According to the list given in Science, many people online are speculating that with this outstanding research, the Ark may be the second mathematician to receive the Nobel Prize for Chemistry, after John Pope.

Of course, this is just an outsider's point of view.

After all, the views of Science represent only Science and not the scientific community as a whole.

The Nobel Prize has fairly rigorous criteria for the selection of outstanding results in the field of application. As an outstanding achievement in the field of application, modified PDMS materials are not destined to be awarded the Nobel Prize immediately the following year of recognition of results, as is the case with gravitational waves.

Whether an application technology is great or not takes time to test.

But just like the famous scientific madman Craig Venter, the father of artificial life, no one would be surprised if one day the Nobel Committee truly awarded the Chemistry Medal to the Ark.

After all, the lithium-crystal problem has indeed plagued the entire material science community for decades.

As for the other major event that took place at the beginning of the year, Kawakawa issued a declaration of inauguration in the White House.

But this has nothing to do with Princeton, and an ark that is not interested in politics is not a world thing.

……

The second week after New Year's Day, Professor Lu gave his students a long vacation.

First, to make up for the cold vacation he owes them, and second, until New Year's Eve on the 27th, he will be busy and will not have time to take care of them.

For this difficult little holiday, Qin Yue said she would go home for the New Year, while Hadi said happily that she intended to travel with her girlfriend to the Mediterranean. For this inexplicable student, Ark suppressed the urge to show him something like "cold homework” and nodded with a smile to wish him a good time.

As for Vera, when the Ark asked her what she had planned for the holidays, the little girl might not have thought of doing it herself, just a blind look.

Looking at Vera like this, the ark sighed.

If it's someone else, he might suggest going back to see his parents, reuniting with his family, relaxing or something.

But her words...

He also had to find her something meaningful to do.

Thinking about it, the Ark said, "Mathematics is a discipline that needs inspiration, just bubbling in book management, and the end result is likely to be a misunderstanding that takes you into your mind. The American Mathematics Institute had an exchange meeting at Berkeley this spring for young scholars, and the paper you showed me last time was not bad, so I suggest you try to contribute. ”

As soon as she heard the report, the little girl panicked and said nervously: "I… I have not come to the stage to do the report. ”

“No one is born, you have to learn to adapt,” the Ark looked her in the eye and said seriously, "If you're worried about the toll, you can spend everything on the road without worrying about the enrollment fee, airline tickets, etc., and you can spend it from the project funds. But if you just don't dare come on stage, I want you to overcome it. Believe me, I'm doing this for your own good. ”

Of her three students, Vera had the highest talent and the Ark had the highest expectations for her.

One day, she would stand on a stage like the International Conference of Mathematicians and present her research in the form of a 45-minute or one-hour presentation, which would never rank among the world-class scholars if she were unable to take the stage simply because she was frightened.

When I heard the phrase "I'm doing it for your own good," Vera's cheeks were slightly reddish and a little overwhelmed.

She waited half a day for a reply and did not intend to leave her with any retreating ark to continue her inquiry.

“What's your answer? ”

“… hmm. ”

Some momentum is insufficient, but it is also a considerable improvement.

Leaning on the office chair, the ark nodded satisfactorily and barely qualified her.

“Then get ready. You have three days left on the deadline, and you don't have to come to the office to change your paper. I'll fix the ticket thing for you. Just sign up. ”

The boat kicked her out of the office.

He stopped at the office door and Vera hesitated and turned around.

Noting Vera's desperate expression, the Ark asked casually: "Is there anything else? ”

Slightly lowered her head, the little girl smiled with some embarrassment: "Nothing, just wanted to thank you... no one has ever cared so much about me before. ”

That's it?

“You're welcome, after all, I'm your mentor," the Ark said. ”

……

After taking care of Princeton, that afternoon the Ark drove its own Ford Explorer to Philadelphia to the office building where Startech was based in North America.

It has to be admitted that AM's services were indeed satisfactory and not only solved all the problems that he could think of, but even helped him solve those that he had not yet thought of.

Of course, it's not cheap either.

Because the office is still under renovation, there is nothing to see here except for the renovation materials and cartons stacked on the ground.

Turning around, the ark left the office building and returned to the car.

Just to satisfy his curiosity, the main purpose of his visit to Philadelphia was not to do so, but to meet a person, the advisor that AM firms contacted for him.

He is said to be a professor at the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania and an expert with a PhD in Business Administration and a PhD in International Trade.

Although the relevant plans are in place, those on paper are not enough, and some things need to be interviewed before they can be clarified.

At the request of the expert, the Ark agreed a meeting time with her and intended to talk in person.
