Chapter 1349 stalemate
"Houston, didn't you go for lunch?"
"I brought something." Houston smiled, but there was not much smile on his face.
"A little nervous?" His Swedish colleague used a obviously joking tone, which is rare among Swedes.
Houston finally realized the difference, turned around and said, "Horson, is there anything I should know?"
"I also heard the news by chance." Hosen first made a clear decision.
Houston is a person who has been in contact with scientists all year round. When he heard that Hosen was hesitant, he knew that there was something wrong. These guys, including himself, were not people who would hide their hearts.
"Horson, what I need most now is news." Houston looked at his tall Swedish colleague and said, "I owe you a favor."
But Hosen is very fond of this sentence in standard American movies.
After hesitating, Hosen said: "They encountered a deadlock."
"They? Who?" Houston was not sure.
Hosen smiled: "Who else can it be, the Nobel Prize Committee."
"Biological?" Houston was shocked and his brain turned irresistibly.
His hands were trembling slightly, as if his ancestors from millions of years ago had met a powerful hunter.
As a Swedish, a Swedish scientist, and a very enterprising Swedish scientist in the Nobel Prize affairs, Houston is extremely sensitive to any related issues.
For example, a deadlock.
Houston couldn't even tell whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
In fact, few people can make accurate judgments through this.
There are many situations where the Nobel Prize Committee is at a deadlock. A five-member committee often takes a long time to discuss before a scholar can vote, and the result of the vote does not always give birth to the winner - those who abstain and oppose, incessantly.
Recommended, agreed, given up… The five-person Nobel Prize Committee, the drama that takes place every year is enough to make blockbusters for several years.
Even after passing the five-member committee, the Swedish Academy of Sciences' large deliberation team would not make things easier.
They always like to deny the scientists chosen by the committee.
This multi-person committee is mainly composed of members of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. For example, the Prize of Physics is composed of scholars from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. This can explain why Bohr was able to cover up the sky at that time. With him in the Academy of Sciences, he would almost reject all scientists who were not in line with his wishes. It is not entirely out of selfishness, but it can be imagined that if you have a prejudice against quantum theory, you will definitely encounter many obstacles if you want to win the Nobel Prize.
Of course, there are only a few top scholars in the world like Bohr who are native to Reedan and Noble. As long as the three kingdoms of Reedan and Noble are not above the super level and have lived for a long time, scientists from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences can still do their job impartially.
Here, the meaning of impartiality basically means that I only recognize scientists I recognize.
So the question arises. Will the scientists sent by the five-member committee please everyone? Of course it is impossible.
The academicians of any country are a microcosm of the world's scientific research community. Some people agree with one theory, and one person agrees with another theory.
It is rare for a theory to appear and everyone worships it. Even in the field of mathematics where the most likely road to Huashan is to appear, it is difficult for someone to stand out. It is not that there are really no outstanding people, but others just don’t admit your excellence, so what if it is.
Even if you have extremely high mathematical attainments, you can prove a super awesome formula, which can be proved hundreds of pages, and you just don’t read it, so what can you do?
There are also many problems in the field of natural sciences, such as Darwin's theory of evolution. The discussions that aroused that year made half of the European continent noisy, and finally defeated Lamarck's "use of advancement and withdrawal", which is a battle of the century. However, after a hundred years, who would have thought that the latest biological research will use advancement and withdrawal from the abyss through "acquired genetics".
It is sometimes very difficult to completely bury academic figures in the academic world in an academic way.
But we can not give him a prize!
This is the joy of being a Swedish scientist. If you have enough level to be able to improve your degree to enter the Academy of Sciences, or to enter the Catherine Medical School, you will certainly determine the ownership of the Nobel Prize.
Even if they are not part of the five-member committee, the Royal Academy of Sciences's large deliberation team still has great power. They are more like jury-like existences and cannot simply end the dispute with voting.
However, most of the time, scientists at the Royal Academy of Sciences are not monolithic.
Someone once said to a friend excitedly: "We murdered each other's candidates."
In the familiar template in Houston, a small number of stalemates prove that there are many supporters in the large deliberation team, and at least one-third of them must support it to form a stalemate. However, most of the stalemates lead to the killing of candidates.
If there is any dispute, no choice is allowed, even the theory of relativity.
The more critical issue is that Houston doesn't even know whether Yang Rui is in a stalemate or outside the stalemate.
If he is in a stalemate, he will worry. If he is outside the stalemate, of course he will be even more worried... There is only one Nobel Prize, and once the stalemate is broken, it will be the end.
"Do you know the specific situation?" Houston asked Hosson without hope.
Hosen shook his head indeed.
"Okay." Houston was a little depressed: "Thank you, at least there is news."
"You want to know the news is not easy, so you have to be polite." Hosen sold it and left.
He actually came here on purpose. Although his colleagues at the school were not optimistic about Houston's move towards the Nobel Prize Committee, it is undeniable that no one could stop Houston's pace.
Because as far as he knows, Yang Rui has actually been on the final list, which means that Houston's influence on the Nobel Prize Committee will also be improved.
Hosen even speculated that the stalemate was probably related to Yang Rui.
However, Hosson was not going to tell Houston directly about this news, because he had to find someone to verify it, so why bother to do this?
The Swedes' good way to sell is also very Swedish.
Houston hurried out, called a taxi, and said, "Go to Catherine Medical College."
Although members of the Nobel jury committee have to swear to keep secrets, the reality is that the members of the committee are still providing friends with useful information, such as who is the first and who is behind.
The reason for this is that they need their own information network to build friendship and contact with the international academic community.
As Crawford said: "The ability to insightfully exchange the secrets of the Nobel Prize gossip is an important criterion."
Houston is just an insightful exchange of gossip.
At the same time, he can also provide more information about Yang Rui to his source of information to help the other party confirm his choice.
In other words, Houston is now an information network of a member of a review committee. Everyone takes the needs and completes this extremely important task to the public in a way that is unknown to the public.
To be honest, the significance of the Nobel Prize in any year to the whole society and all mankind is more than the value of everyone in a small city for the lifetime.
Judging from PCR alone, whether you can win an award represents the promotion of PCR, and the promotion of PCR directly determines the development of genetics.
Looking at the next thirty years, all Chinese born in the 10th century, European and American born in the 2000s benefit from PCR technology. If you go a little further, PCR can directly determine the life and death of millions of babies, the health of tens of millions of babies, and the seriousness of genetic diseases of hundreds of millions of babies.
As for the development of criminal investigation science driven by this, the difficulties of mistresses in paternity testing, etc., it is not included.
If it is a G-protein-coupled receptor, its radiation surface may not be as extensive as PCR, but the impact is more direct and intuitive. At most 15 years, diseases such as AIDS, pre-static hyperplasia, schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease will greatly benefit from it. More and more in-depth impacts will play a role in the next fifty or sixty years, or even a hundred years.
However, for people living in the present, the Nobel Prize-winning G-protein-coupled receptor may be widely used in the next 10 years. Otherwise, the time may be extended to 20 years or even longer. The difference of 10 years may be only 3,650 days plus a leap month and day. On the patient, it is a difference between life and death, happiness and pain.
Not to mention that 10 years is about the time when a new drug was promoted and let ordinary people know that the time difference between the time when the patent period ends, whether the G-protein-coupled receptor can win the Nobel Prize, that is, whether the poor can afford the drug.
The world always runs in its inherent way, and never cares about its impact on the ant-like human beings.
Human beings are always strong, fighting in an inherent way at the expense of life and pain.
"Please drive faster." Houston patted the front seat. He was not qualified to promote or change the results of the Nobel Prize, but even an ant was qualified to choose to fight when facing fate, even if it was meaningless.
"Are you a scientist? The awards from Catherine Medical School this year are a bit slow." The taxi driver chatted happily.
Swedes don’t chat, but taxi drivers around the world seem to be of another race, even in Sweden, can chat.
At this time, the most important thing in Sweden is naturally the Nobel Prize selection.
The taxi driver looked at Houston in the rearview mirror with concern.
Houston couldn't help but coughed, and said, "I'm a scientific researcher."
The taxi driver looked like he was determined and smiled and said, "It's time for the Nobel Prize to come out. In the past year, the results were still available on the 3rd. Today it's the 4th."
"I know."
"You have to urge them."
"I need to be able to urge me." Houston had no choice.
"Not only biological ones have not come out, but also chemical ones have not come out. If you know who they are, remember to remind you, don't have enough time to delay." The taxi driver seemed to be joking, but in fact he looked very serious.
"The chemistry hasn't come out?" Houston thought of a possibility, and suddenly felt a slight sweat in his forehead.
Chapter completed!
