Chapter 102 The rich rely on technology
If a Guangdong aunt tells you that young people should not gamble* and smoke marijuana.
Don’t worry, she doesn’t think you are a bad person, but she is advising you not to study for a Ph.D. or write code.
Computational biology is such a magical subject that requires both a PhD and writing code, and it is also engaged in biological sciences...
What is the most critical track in the 21st century? ?
It's biology and computer science!
Computational biology directly covers two super tracks. It looks awesome, right?
However, the current popularity of this emerging subject is far less than that of other popular biological subjects. To put it simply... there is no money in sight.
Nowadays, everyone knows that cross-border talents are valuable, but cross-border talents are not good, and neither side is learned well. They only have a little understanding, and it becomes a crotch.
If only to be the best tailor in the world of chefs, or the best chef in the world of tailors.
So why not just use the best chef, or the best tailor?
The ideal cross-border should be that the several professional fields crossed should be able to undergo deep chemical reactions to achieve the effect of 1+1>3!
Only when two disciplines are deeply related and collide, and inspire and improve each other, rather than just simple physical superposition, can such a crossover be successful.
"Is this a different approach, giving up the main attack and playing support..."
Just seeing this photo, Meng Lang could completely understand what this brother meant.
In a person's life, energy is limited.
Even if you train an Einstein yourself, you can't ask him to be proficient in ancient Chinese while solving the theory of relativity, right?
Now that Xiaoyu is in charge of the frontal attack, his biggest role is to assist her by checking for deficiencies and filling them in, giving her various "accelerations".
The current classification of biology can be roughly divided into: biological science, biotechnology, bioinformatics, ecology, integrative science, and neuroscience.
Computational biology is a branch of bioinformatics.
For most scientific research, some scientists focus on scientific discoveries, while others focus on research methods.
Traditional basic research on biology focuses more on how to discover. Biology is the leader, and calculations and algorithms can only be regarded as auxiliary.
Computational biology, on the other hand, focuses more on the “method” of research itself, such as using computers to build various biological research models.
Relatively speaking, this is more like a technician assisting biologists.
If various biological research models can be established and improved, it will definitely help the research efficiency of specific drugs.
This is like chip design. Without EDA software for circuit simulation, not only will the efficiency be greatly reduced, but even the cost will soar.
EDA software is such an auxiliary "accelerator" for scientific research!
Similar to computational biology, there is also bionic computing, which is the so-called biological computer.
It’s just that one of them uses computers to “assist” the study of biology, and the other uses biology to “assist” the study of computers, which is exactly the opposite.
These two disciplines are undoubtedly the "spark" of love created by the collision of "biology" and "computer science".
It is true that these two disciplines are still in their infancy at this point in 2018. There are many theoretical research papers, but substantive applications are still far away.
After all, one is carbon-based and the other is silicon-based.
If you want to integrate these two hugely different disciplines, just like the spark of love between Transformers and humans, the process must be full of hardships and twists and turns...
But It is undeniable that the potential of these two cross-border disciplines is as huge as several industrial revolutions.
Don’t ask Meng Lang why he has these knowledge points in his mind, just ask in three words: Many brothers!
I came from 2040 and recommended it to everyone. I naturally follow the good deeds.
In the long run, medicine requires various stringent conditions such as biochemical laboratories and in vivo clinical trials. Even if your mind is full of practical information, in the short term, it is basically impossible for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
The several future medical documents that have been thrown into my hands are still being shelved.
The transformation and application promotion of scientific research results can only be hatched slowly after Evergreen Biotech has established a firm foothold in the future.
Time is extremely precious to Meng Lang.
Twenty years is only that long, and wasting a year and a half is extremely irresponsible towards life!
Relatively speaking, starting from computing science, the threshold is much lower.
To be a programmer, all you need is a laptop and a small dark room...
Writing code is not the same as coding, all you need is hands!
This period of time can be used just in time to race against death. Meng Lang's short life... does not allow for a window period!
Moreover, engaging in computational biology, in addition to accelerating biological research, is a very necessary skill, whether it is for your own information security needs, or to make a little money by studying blockchain, and you can serve multiple purposes.
Set a small goal for yourself, first become a cross-border Ph.D. in "biology" and "computer science"!
Teachers of the Chinese Department, for this damn desire to survive, I can only live up to your high expectations.
Zhou Shuren abandoned medicine to pursue literature because medicine could not save the Chinese people.
However, times have changed. Today, I, Meng Lang, can only give up writing and practice medicine, because reciting poems and writing poems, lamenting the spring and autumn, moaning for no reason... I can't save my brothers!
But I want to accomplish this small goal which is a feat.
First of all...you must have a laptop with good performance...
...
Early the next morning, Meng Lang came over to say goodbye to Xiaoyu and the others.
Yan Weiwei behaved very normally. Apart from her angry eyes and being worried about last night's fiasco, she had no intention of coming to send her off.
This proves that both parties are still in the stage of plastic friendship.
What a joy!
After leaving the community, he took his suitcase and did not go directly to the train station. Instead, he took a taxi to a Juchang flagship store next to the train station, and then went straight to the laptop counter.
"Hello sir, what do you need?"
"A high-end laptop, preferably a thin and light one."
"Okay! What is your approximate budget? I can help you recommend some of the latest products."
"What is your budget...there is no upper limit."
Wearing a professional skirt The beautiful shopping guide's eyes immediately shone with golden light.
This answer is a good quality customer!
She seemed to see the highest commission waving to her!
However, her good professionalism kept her from losing her composure, but her smile was just a little brighter.
“Okay sir, if your requirement is for a thin and light notebook with higher configuration, then I recommend this MateBook XPro.
It uses the eighth generation Intel Core i7 processor, GTX1080 graphics card, and four speakers Design, supports Dolby Atmos sound effect
Battery capacity is 57. .4WH, supports 12 hours of video playback, 14 hours of office work or 15 hours of website browsing. In addition, this notebook also supports fast charging technology, which can be used for 6 hours after 30 minutes of charging.
As for the color. , this emerald green color is very suitable for Mr.’s temperament, and its price is 9999RMB”
"Hmm...Okay! That's it then!"
Meng Lang looked at the various parameters and found that it was already a high-end configuration, which should be enough for him in the short term.
The key point is that there is nothing more expensive in this store...
This official flagship store is not a tourist street. Things worth 100 yuan are priced at 5,000 for you. Meng Lang naturally doesn't worry about things that are clearly marked. Being slaughtered.
Not to mention only 10,000...sprinkle some water~
Um! If you have the opportunity in the future, you must go to Taiwan to do supercomputing!
"In addition, I also need a portable Wifi..."
After a pause, Meng Lang thought that he didn't seem to have bought any gifts yet. He originally wanted to go to the gift shop at the train station to pick some. But now that we are here...
"Well! Let's pick up four more latest mobile phones by the way."
The beautiful shopping guide was confused.
By the way? Does the surprise always come at the end?
......
"Welcome to visit next time~"
In the bright smile of the beautiful shopping guide, Meng Lang, who had a light backpack on his back, walked out of the store and got stuck. There is only a mere thirty thousand missing.
"This is the correct way to use money..." Meng Lang couldn't help but sigh.
Batman and Spider-Man tell us a truth.
If you want to become stronger, the rich rely on technology, and the poor rely on mutation... (End of chapter)
