Chapter 708: Chapter 630: I’m Hosting Chapter 708: Chapter 630: I’m Hosting The study of Academician Xiang from Nandu dical University.
On the academician’s desk, to the right, is Yang Ping’s project plan and research guidance for the cultivation of muscle stem cells, while to the left is a pile of thick monographs, with him continuing to pull out new monographs from the bookshelf for perusal.
After going through a pile of monographs, the old academician starts reading papers on his computer. He has been in his study for almost eight hours today, with his als brought in by his spouse. This has continued for several days, causing his spouse to worry.
“You need to move around a bit, otherwise you risk developing deep vein thrombosis.” Unable to bear it anymore, his spouse gently reminds him from the doorway.
However, the old academician doesn’t hear his spouse’s reminder at all and continues to read papers, occasionally taking notes.
“Whose project plan is this that you’ve been reading for several days? You’ve been at it for eight hours straight today again. You need to move around.”
For the sake of her husband’s health, the old academician’s spouse has no choice but to be rough, removing the pencil from Academician Xiang’s hand.
“Ah, another eight hours huh? I forgot, yes, I should move around.” The old academician starts to move around the room, albeit reluctantly, at his wife’s insistence.
“Whose project plan is this that you’ve been reading for days?”
His wife is very curious.
The old academician instantly perks up at the ntion of the project plan, “It’s a project plan from a young man at Sanbo Hospital. This young man is amazing. After studying his project plan for a few days, I found him to be way more extraordinary than I initially thought.”
“Is he that young surgeon that Professor He frequently talks about?” The old academician’s wife also knows about this. Every ti Professor He cos to visit his ntor, he speaks of this person.
In fact, Professor He often discusses Yang Ping’s thods and data with Academician Xiang, which is how the latter rembers Yang Ping.
Where a single accomplishnt would have been surprising enough, now there are several accomplishnts from this Yang Ping, which amazes the old academician.
The thods and data Yang Ping gave to Professor He are truly precious anatomical data. At the ti, the old academician didn’t pay much attention to them, but after carefully studying them one by one, he realized each one could be considered a heavyweight scientific accomplishnt.
Especially this recent topic on the cultivation of muscle stem cells. While Professor He is not particularly knowledgeable about the field of stem cells, he is an academician when it cos to the field of anatomy.
When he saw that the project plan ntioned a detailed anatomy of muscle tissues, the old academician beca excited. He had always wanted to propose the sa concept, but he felt it was immature and refrained from speaking of it. He was surprised to see that this young man not only proposed this concept but also acted on it.
Constructing a detailed anatomy from the cellular level requires courage and patience.
Looking at a single-cell tissue section, many cells will be severed. These cells need to be evaluated in relation to several tissue sections, before being restored.
It’s a highly complex project.
Yet, the young man not only started the project but also ca up with effective thods.
“I won’t be ho for dinner tonight.” The old academician notified his wife.
His wife was surprised again, as her husband rarely dined out in decades. Why was he planning to have dinner out? Did he have so engagent?
“This young man Yang is set to visit Nandu University dical Digital dical Laboratory today. I inford Professor He in advance that once Yang arrives, he should notify , and we can all have dinner together.” Indeed, the old academician planned to have dinner with Professor He and Yang Ping.
“So, you haven’t t this Yang in person, and you recomnded him to Principal Ruo? You even had him exceptionally promoted to associate professor?” His wife thought the two n were close; she was surprised they hadn’t even t.
The old academician was displeased, “His exceptional promotion to associate professor was strongly endorsed by in front of Xiao Ruo, and I also lobbied the evaluation committee mbers. That was because his academic achievents were sufficient for him to be an associate professor. Whether or not I’ve t him has nothing to do with it.”
“Please co ho early after dinner.”
His wife reminded him.
Just then, the old academician’s phone rang. It was Professor He. The old academician learned that Yang Ping would soon arrive.
“I should get there early to await his arrival. Young people are tight on ti, unlike us old folks who have plenty of leisure ti.”
The old academician looked excited.

Nandu University dical Digital dical Laboratory, Professor He’s office.
Due to the irregular arrangent of cells, achieving a true single-cell layer is impossible. However, it is possible to obtain many intact single-cell layers, and by integrating multiple tissue sections, a detailed anatomy can be constructed.
Professor He had read the experintal guidance countless tis, each ti finding it hard to believe.
There are few teams nationwide conducting the Digital Human project, and in terms of experience, their team is undoubtedly the richest.
Theoretically, no one could surpass Professor He at single-cell level tissue sections in microters. The Digital Human they initially produced was world-class.
Yet, the thodologies outlined in this experintal guidance are significantly more advanced than his own. They easily produce qualified tissue sections and also make developing three-dinsional digital muscles from tissue sections easier. He took the lead in this experintal guidance.
Where did these thods co from?
If they were borrowed from others, it would be impossible for Professor He not to know of their existence.
There’s only one possibility. Did Professor Yang co up with this himself?
“His ability to abstract theory from limited experience is remarkable. You are lucky to collaborate with him. Regardless of whether the topic is successful or not, you will have the opportunity to learn the thods of constructing a detailed human anatomy and push the Digital Human to a new frontier,” Elder Academician Xiang said slowly to Professor He. He arrived at Professor He’s lab before Yang Ping.
Elder Xiang has been very curious since Professor He ntioned Yang Ping. So, he carefully studied the data and thods Yang Ping provided and found them very unconventional. The given data and thods were extrely advanced.
He began to take notice of this young man, and then he reviewed his Spinal External Fixation Project, the latest stem cell project, and the Old Academician was extrely excited. With his sharp academic vision, he discovered that this young man is a real scientific research genius.
Not only is he skilled in surgery, but he’s also excellent in scientific research. This is a rare talent.
So when he received a call from Professor He, he rushed over, eager to et Yang Ping.
“His approach is very clear. To clone an organ, regardless of directional cultivation or 3D printing, the prerequisite is to understand the intricate anatomy of the organ; otherwise, every thod would be unsuccessful. Besides, you noticed that if the organ is actually cloned, do you know what the biggest obstacle would be during application?”
Academician Xiang sees more than others when it cos to this project proposal and experintal guidance, he could see many deeper things.
“You an he set nerve research as a separate project?” Professor He faintly understood what his teacher was saying.
“Exactly, no matter the thod, if the muscle is replicated by us, then the biggest problem faced when transplanted into the human body is the issue of nerve connection. The blood vessel problem is easy to solve. Once it’s joined together, it will circulate with blood. Nerves, on the other hand, are different. They don’t just join at the cut-off point; instead, they grow from proximal to distal. Because of this, nerves must be studied more thoroughly. When cloning muscles in the future, we don’t need to replicate the entire nerve at the original nerve site. Instead, we replicate the nerve sheath, arranging a layer of nerve growth-inducing substances on the inner sheath of the nerve. Thus, when the muscle is transplanted, the nerve sheath is connected with the human body’s nerve. Guided by the inducer substances, the nerve grows along the sheath until it reaches the end,” Elder Xiang explained.
Professor He always wondered why it was designed like this. Now he finally understood: “He bypassed the difficult task of nerve repair and took a new path?”
“Not just a new path, he opened a second one!” The elder academician said unhurriedly.
Today, he was going to teach his doctoral student a lesson.
“Is there another way of thinking?” Professor He was puzzled as it wasn’t ntioned.
Old Academician was quite proud. “That’s because you are not responsible for this project, so it isn’t brought up in your proposal. If I am not mistaken, the one responsible for the developnt of biological 3D printing technology must also research biological connection technology.”
“Biological connection technology?”
Professor He was even more confused.
“There’s another approach. That is, using stem cells to cultivate the cells at each layer of the nerve, and then use micro 3D printing technology to connect the nerve’s original cells. However, this requires the micro printing of the 3D printing technology to be excellent. You wait and ask him later. He will surely have this project,” Elder Academician said getting more excited.
Cannot reconnect after the nerve breaks because it does not heal. If they can repair it at the cellular level and restore it, naturally, this is a preferred thod. But the difficulty is much greater than the previous approach.
“Why hasn’t Xiao Yang arrived yet?” The old academician was a bit anxious.
Professor He said: “There’s a bit of traffic.”
“Did you decide on the location?”
“Yes, it’s decided!”
“Today. I am treating.”
“How can that be?”
“It’s okay; it’s decided, I will treat.”
