Doctor: I Can Synthesize Infinite Entries

Chapter 195: Chapter 176: Jinggang University Institute of Cell and Developmental Biology

[You have acquired an entry from Director Shen Xiaofei: Gallstone Removal Technique (Purple). This embodies Director Shen Xiaofei’s profound skill, the optimal method for gallbladder-preserving stone removal via minimally invasive techniques.]

A few more practical entries. Wu Ting was delighted and sincerely thanked the others.

”You’re all too kind. We’re just learning from each other. Thank you all, I’ve gained a great deal from this as well.”

Hearing Wu Ting’s sincere words, Wang Nanjin and Liu Xingye both blushed slightly. ’This Dr. Wu is really being gracious,’ they thought. ’We didn’t contribute anything besides cheering him on.’

After completing the surgery in the hepatobiliary department, Wu Ting left Jinggang University Affiliated First Hospital feeling quite accomplished.

Wu Ting planned to spend the next few days in Xiao City, so he rented a room at a hotel near the hospital.

That evening, just as Wu Ting had showered and gotten into bed, he received a list from Director Shen Siyuan.

’My mentor is so efficient. His ability to get things done is top-notch!’

Wu Ting sent his thanks and began to look through the list. Sure enough, it detailed the specific research directions of various experts in the field of immunoproteins, complete with brief introductions and contact information.

Wu Ting went through the names one by one. Most were professors from Jinggang University’s Medical College and School of Life Sciences.

As Wu Ting scanned the list, his eyes landed on a suitable candidate!

The senior Professor Jin Zhiming. Professor Jin had already retired but was now a renowned expert re-hired by Jinggang University.

Professor Jin was formerly the head of Jinggang University’s School of Life Sciences and had co-authored *Introduction to Modern Immunology*. He was on par with Director Shen Siyuan’s own mentor—a titan in the field of immunology in the country.

This textbook, *Introduction to Modern Immunology*, was originally an adaptation based on *Basic Immunology* and *Immunobiology*. Later, it was Professor Jin who advocated for its revision into *University Immunology*, a title that has been in use ever since.

Professor Jin had also explained the reasoning behind this name change:

(1) This is a course designed for university students, and it’s a necessary elective for students of various majors;

(2) Immunology is a cutting-edge discipline in modern life sciences and one of the fields in physiology and medicine with the most Nobel Prizes. Along with cell biology and neurobiology, it is hailed as one of the three driving forces advancing the life sciences;

(3) Immunology has now developed into a vast disciplinary system, closely related to medical science, life sciences, agricultural and forestry sciences, food science, marine animal husbandry, health and quarantine, as well as the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

(4) The three major functions of the immune system—immune defense, immune surveillance, and immune homeostasis—are indispensable for maintaining health at every moment throughout a person’s life.

In Professor Jin’s view, studying immunology provides effective knowledge for promoting wellness and for preventing and treating diseases. Mastering immunology could broaden one’s perspective on cutting-edge science and expand employment opportunities, offering a smooth path forward.

And a specific area of Professor Jin’s later research was the Single Immunoglobulin-Interleukin 1 Receptor Protein!

This was precisely why Wu Ting planned to seek out Professor Jin.

Furthermore, according to Shen Siyuan, there was another reason for Professor Jin’s re-employment: to pave the way for his daughter and granddaughter.

Professor Jin’s daughter, Jin Yihong, had followed in her father’s footsteps. After graduating from Jinggang University’s School of Life Sciences, she pursued her master’s and doctoral degrees in the Southern Country, a true academic superstar.

Upon returning to the country, she made a brilliant name for herself in the life sciences and went on to found a pharmaceutical company famous throughout Jin Province and even the entire nation: the Jin Pharmaceutical Group!

Now, the legacy has passed to the third generation. Jin Yihong’s daughter, Deng Feifei, also works at the family company, serving as the manager of the R&D department for the Jin Pharmaceutical Group.

Professor Jin’s re-employment at Jinggang University also influenced many outstanding graduates, who would either join the Jin Pharmaceutical Group or form strong connections with it. This, to a degree, spurred the rapid growth of Jin Pharmaceutical.

In recent years, the Jin Pharmaceutical Group and Jinggang University’s School of Life Sciences have jointly established a research institute. The group invested substantial capital into the school, and the institute, in turn, has provided numerous research projects and a steady stream of future talent.

Wu Ting’s goal this time was to find Professor Jin at this very institute.

According to Shen Siyuan, Professor Jin now went to the institute once a week. Every Friday, a day-long immunology-related Q&A and discussion session was held in the institute’s main lecture hall.

This Q&A session was open to students and faculty from all of Jinggang University’s colleges, including the main School of Life Sciences, Wu Ting’s own Medical College, the School of Forestry, and others.

Of course, the attendees of this Q&A session were mostly doctoral students, top-tier master’s students, and some university lecturers and associate professors.

Now that Wu Ting was equipped with the immunology knowledge he’d gained from Shen Siyuan, his theoretical level was top-tier even among professors. Thus, he wasn’t the least bit intimidated to attend.

In line with his own research topic on hepatitis B-related primary liver cancer, Wu Ting formulated a question designed to help him achieve a breakthrough.

The question’s scope was extremely broad, its difficulty immense, and the required expertise profound. Only a titan of the field like Professor Jin, who had dedicated his life to this research, could possibly answer it.

Therefore, Wu Ting cherished this opportunity. After carefully structuring the question and meticulously refining it, he printed it out, ready to seek Professor Jin’s guidance.

’If I’m lucky, I might directly acquire the ’Single Immunoglobulin-Interleukin 1 Receptor Protein Theory (Purple)’ entry. That would be perfect. If my luck is bad, then I’ll just have to achieve a breakthrough in this theoretical research through my own studies and Professor Jin’s teachings!’

To ensure he made it to Professor Jin’s Q&A session, Wu Ting specifically sought out Dr. Yan Xi to ask for and obtain the precise time.

Dr. Yan Xi was completely shocked that Wu Ting was planning to attend Professor Jin’s Q&A.

”Wu Ting, are you joking with me? Professor Jin is a treasured professor at our Jinggang University. His status in the field is that of a titan. The people who attend his Q&A are all PhDs and lecturers who have been researching in related fields for a long time, not to mention some young professors and associate professors. For a master’s student... unless you’re one of the absolute top students from his own school, going there to ask a question is just asking for humiliation.”

”Professor Jin is a very amiable person, but presenting an overly elementary question would be disrespectful to him and would waste everyone’s precious time. I think you should first show your question to Director Shen Siyuan and have him vet it.”

”Wu Ting, I don’t mean anything by it, and I’m not trying to put you down. It’s just that the barrier to entry for this session is really high. I don’t want you to end up in an awkward situation.”

Yan Xi explained, her tone quite sincere.

Wu Ting understood. He was aiming for exactly this kind of high-level exchange, as only Professor Jin could resolve his doubts and help him break through this skill entry.

”Understood. I’ll have my mentor look it over. Thank you, Dr. Yan.”

Wu Ting was truly grateful to Yan Xi.

After getting the exact time, Wu Ting arrived a little early at the institute: the Jinggang University Institute of Cell and Developmental Biology.

Wu Ting began to look at the display board in the lobby.

The institute’s main focus was on fundamental and cutting-edge topics in cell biology and developmental biology.

The institute currently had 11 professors serving as doctoral advisors and 2 associate professors. Among them were 4 Qiushi Distinguished Professors, 3 recipients of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars, and 2 recipients of the Excellent Young Scientists Fund!

The institute also emphasized international collaboration, having established long-term cooperative relationships with multiple universities in countries such as the Southern Country and Jin Country...

Reading these descriptions, Wu Ting was deeply impressed. ’As expected of a Jinggang University research institute. It’s incredible!’ he thought.

The institute undertook many research projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation, such as:

The Distinguished Young Scholars Fund, the Excellent Young Scientists Fund, as well as Major, Key, General, and Youth research programs...

Additionally, there were projects funded by the Ministry of Science and Technology, such as the 973 Program, the 863 Program, and Key R&D Programs...

And major and key research projects from Jin Province...

In recent years, the institute had published numerous important research papers in many internationally renowned academic journals (including *Nature*) and had won awards such as the Jin Province First Prize for Natural Science and Haijin Port’s Top Ten Academic Advances...

Looking at these research achievements and the associated scientists, Wu Ting realized the limits of his own perspective and the relative ordinariness of his team at City First Hospital.

It turned out that any random expert from this institute could completely run circles around anyone at City First Hospital.

’I need to work even harder. I believe that once I master the complete ’Radical Cure for Hepatitis B-related Primary Carcinoma (Red),’ I’ll be able to stand on par with these top experts,’ Wu Ting thought, a fire of ambition igniting within him.

The Excellent Young Scientists Fund, the Distinguished Young Scholars Fund, a university professorship... Wu Ting wanted to have a taste of these achievements for himself in the near future!

While Wu Ting was lost in his ambitious thoughts, Professor Jin arrived at the institute.

Beside him was a young woman with long hair, a few strands highlighted in gold. She had a delicate, petite face with fair, smooth skin.

Her proportions were perfect, and she carried the combined air of a wealthy heiress and an academic prodigy.

The woman followed Professor Jin, chatting and laughing. As she turned her head, her eyes met Wu Ting’s for a moment. Her pupils were like exquisite pieces of colored glass, set above a high-bridged nose, rosy lips, and a perfectly sculpted jawline.

This woman was none other than Professor Jin’s granddaughter, Deng Feifei. She had driven him here. She was the R&D manager for the Jin Pharmaceutical Group, a top-tier socialite who embodied the triple threat of academic genius, devastating beauty, and young business leader.

After Professor Jin and Deng Feifei entered the lecture hall, Wu Ting followed, holding his printed question.

As usual, Professor Jin walked to the podium and sat down. He opened his thermos, took a sip of tea, and then, with an air of ritual, took his reading glasses from his breast pocket and put them on.

Next, he took an ordinary old fountain pen from the same pocket and placed it on a stack of bound scrap paper, printed on one side.

After completing this routine, Professor Jin looked up at the packed lecture hall, filled with top students, PhD candidates, lecturers, and young professors.

”Who wants to be the first to come up?”
