Chapter 814: Dr. Z Saving the World?

"Successfully awakened after 27 days of coma, two of Ares' planned colonists have healed!

"Alert cancelled! Mars Bacteria was jointly attacked by the Moon Palace expert team! Dr. Mystery" Z ”offers important clues!

……

Almost the day after Johnson woke up, the latest developments in bacteriological research on X-0172 were published in the global media through the Moon Orbit Construction Committee.

As soon as it became known that the three comatose colonists had succeeded in awakening and clearing their bodies of infected bacteria, the international community was shocked.

The newspaper was followed by the Washington Post, which first covered the news, and interviewed the Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations, Mr. Eliasson, in connection with the incident.

A month ago, it was he who stood at the emergency session of the United Nations and read out a joint initiative calling on the nations of the world to respond together to this crisis.

While it was not this joint initiative that really motivated countries to respond together to the crisis, it is undeniable that his statement was quite emblematic.

When asked how to evaluate the performance of countries in responding to this global crisis, Eliasson gave little hesitation to a considerable degree of certainty.

“… this is another great human face to nature, the glow of humanity unites us and we have not given up anyone in the face of difficulty! ”

Reporter: "What do you think of Tevy, the black colonizer who hasn't been successfully saved? ”

Eliasson: “I think failure to be rescued is only temporary, and I believe the international team of experts has enough experience and knowledge to take just a moment! ”

In any case, the success of two of the three patients infected with X-0172 bacteria has been a considerable breakthrough.

According to the timetable announced by the State of China, Johnson and Jones will be transferred from the Moon Palace to the Aurora International Space Station within a week by the cargo ship Xuanqiao, where experts will be dispatched by the United Nations for a final medical examination before returning to the surface in a return compartment.

So far, the Earth's ecological crisis caused by Mars bacteria has come to an end.

During these 27 long days of waiting, countless people have expressed concern about the future of the Earth's ecosystem, and now all concerns are finally dust settled.

In the face of X-0172 bacteria's indestructible spores, human civilization will no longer be helpless, and hardly anyone doubts that it will take long for the remaining colonizer to recover as well.

All they need is a little time.

At the same time, in addition to the two colonizers who were returning to Earth, media attention was also focused on Dr. Z, who played an important role throughout the event.

According to Professor Stephen of Stanford University, if it weren't for the solution provided by this PhD, and the key informatin molecular formulas and synthetic methods, they might still be stuck on the bottleneck of how to block the formation of X-0172 bacteria.

“… his research has made a decisive contribution to our eventual removal of Mars bacteria from the colonists! ”

“I don't know why he chose to be anonymous, but I hope he comes forward and accepts the honor of saving the world! ”

The speculation about the identity of this Dr. Z continues to ferment with reports of bacteria related to X-0172.

Not only are the media curious about the identity of this anonymous scholar, but the general public is also quite interested in this anonymous scholar.

Interestingly enough, if his name was generous enough to be written on the paper, the gourd eaters wouldn't necessarily be so interested. Even media coverage will soon be forgotten after a glance.

It's as if when it comes to the Nobel Prize, everyone knows it's awesome, but not many will remember who took the Nobel Prize in a given year.

Now, however, even those who are usually indifferent to biology are curious, who is the author of this paper, who is the scholar in which country, and for what reason have chosen to be anonymous...

Jinling Higher Institute.

Institute of Biology.

Professor Liu Zuobing delivered a report to the Ark and said with a few emotional voices.

“Incredible, unexpected that our long-awaited release agent without side-effects is on Mars. ”

After discovering that the information secreted by X-0172 bacteria when forming spores can promote active dormancy in organisms,

After taking over the report, the ark swept a brief glance.

Based on the data obtained from experiments in mice, mice implanted with X-0172 bacteria, when experiencing low temperatures of 12-15 degrees below zero, actively activate bacteria in vivo to form spores, releasing dormantin and pushing the host into dormant state.

With a hibernation time of 24 hours, the host will be fully dormant. By reaching this state, the metabolic capacity of the host will be reduced to a fairly low level, and ensuring that the host's somatic structure is normal, able to be reconverted into nutritional cells when the situation is right, restoring pre-dormant metabolic levels and motor capacity.

When I saw this place, the eyebrows of the ark slightly provoked a hint of interest.

Sensing the expression of interest on Ark's face, Professor Liu, standing next to him, smiled and said.

“Remember that nematode cell we got a while ago? Next, we intend to insert 18S-rDNA gene segments into X-0172 bacteria to synthesize special proteins that maintain dormant biocell morphology by X-0172 bacteria. ”

The Ark turned the report into a page and asked casually.

“Is the DNA added to the X-0172 bacteria okay? ”

Professor Liu Zuobing: “Risk is within control. ”

“Then do as you say," returned the report to Professor Liu, and the ark nodded, "Remember, safety is first at all times. ”

Professor Liu Zhuobing solemnly said: “Don't worry, I will be 10,000 careful in safety. ”

Currently nominally, X-0172 bacteria are only sent by live samples on the Moon Palace, and samples sent to Earth are inactivated, although that said, as the chief designer of the Moon Orbit Construction Committee, the ship still has a "little” privilege in research.

As early as the first time after the incident, live samples of X-0172 bacteria were sent back to the Institute of Higher Studies by the Sauvignon Blanc.

It's just that the matter isn't public.

Put the report away, Professor Liu was about to leave, and then suddenly he remembered something and asked.

“By the way, that metabolic extract... are you done? ”

“And one more thing, I put it in the office. If you need it, I'll send it to you later...” Seeing Professor Liu looked at himself strangely, Ark slightly stunned and asked casually, "... what's wrong? ”

Shaking his head, Professor Liu questioned.

“One question I don't know is inconvenient to ask. ”

Ark: “What's the problem? Ask.”

Professor Liu Zuobing: “Do you know that Dr. Z? ”

Ark: “... I don't know. Why? ”

“I was just wondering, don't take it personally," Professor Liu laughed with some embarrassment, "that paper was uploaded to Arxiv's Dr. Z. Wouldn't it be you--”

After a slight cough interrupted Professor Liu's remarks, the Ark questioned him and said, “Do you think it's possible? ”

Professor Liu nodded very honestly.

“Generally speaking, biologically-mounted preprints are posted a little more on BioRxiv, and I rarely hear peers throw preprints on ArXiv… if I remember correctly, ArXiv should have a little more papers on physics, mathematics, and computer direction. ”

Plus just a few people who had access to X-0172 bacterial samples, several experts on the Lunar Palace said they didn't write it themselves, and only Jinling Institute of Higher Studies had access to live samples on the ground.

Not an ark, that can only be written by a few of your own students touching the fish...

But it's obvious what level his students are, and he's a professor who knows better than they do. It's okay to give him a shot at that, so high level of thesis, obviously not what they can write.

However, he also dared not fully believe his judgment. After all, the Ark has never published a paper on the direction of biology, nor has he heard that Professor Lu has engaged in similar research...

Liu Zhuo was a little confused when he thought about it.

Compared to Professor Liu, who was caught in a tangle, the Ark was embarrassed at the moment.

Does biology have a dedicated pre-printed website?

Isn't it on Arxiv?

Mom, yeah, it's the first time he's heard about it.

Surely the next time you do this, you have to investigate it in advance, or it would be embarrassing not to be recognized.

“Come on, don't even think about it. ”

After a cough, the Ark forcibly ended the conversation, saying, "Whoever Dr. Z is, we will remember his contribution, and if he doesn't want anyone to know who he is, I think it would be best if we respected his choice… In addition, the project group on X-0172 bacteria can be dissolved and the relevant research materials merged into the Cryodormant Project group. ”

Professor Liu immediately asked, slightly stunned.

“Isn't there another colonist who hasn't woken up? ”

Ark: “The hardest part is that we're through, and the rest is handed over to the international team of experts. As for you, just keep researching human refrigeration technology. ”
