Sleepless Doctor

The latest website: "Too science fiction, brother." Chu Zhixi smiled, "I estimate that with the speed of current technology, there should be no breakthroughs within 20 years."

"Musk's company is already working on man-machine interfaces. This is known. Normally, I don't know how many are hidden below the surface of the water." Wu Mian said flatly, "They are willing to pay any price for immortality. "

"Is this selling my soul to the devil?"

"No." Wu Mian said, "but I think this technology is still at least 30 years away from maturity, and it is not yet mature. Maybe we can catch up, but I only partition the brain function. interested."

"Isn't there already research results?"

"Previous research results are not used in surgery, most likely it is just guessing. If there is a GE machine, I will try to write a software." Wu Mian said, "You go to bed first, I will think about it and find some information."

"Oh, good." Although Chu Zhixi is an expert in neurosurgery, she doesn't understand mechanical principles and didn't want to understand it.

"You have seen the software application image made by French Doctor Aude once. It is beautiful." Wu Mian said, "I will definitely make it more beautiful than his."

"It's fine if you can use it, you don't care if it is beautiful or not," Chu Zhixi said.

"I want to buy some experimental rats. The practical orangutan is the best. Unfortunately, there is no laboratory. If the orangutan appears in the hospital, I am worried that there will be problems." Wu Mian said.

"In the Texas laboratory, the time the orangutan ran out, it frightened me." Chu Zhixi said, touching her heart with her hand.

"So you can only use white rats or rabbits at most." Wu Mian said, "I prefer white rats, but you will be scared. Let me figure it out and buy some rabbits for experiments. A white rat is more than 1,000 yuan, a rabbit. Cheap."

"Huh? Are domestic rabbits cheap?"

"Yes, the mother rabbit head of the Sichuan people is said to eat 300 million rabbits every year. How strong is the reproductive capacity of rabbits, if I say that Australia’s ecological disaster is not a problem at all. That little rabbit is enough for Sichuan people to eat. Are you kidding me." Wu Mian said casually.

"Rabbit's brain..." Chu Zhixi said, and began to think.

"What I want to test is my software. I only do NMR. I keep doing it. I can modify the software data." Wu Mian laughed. "Look clearly at the nerve bundles of rabbits or rats. If you don't do destructive tests, you basically can't use it. A few."

"How long can it be completed?"

"I don't know, just do it. After I go back, I will contact the Neuralink team first to see if I can ask for some useful data." Wu Mian said.

"Their technology is more of a commercial application."

"Well, because it is a commercial application, it is not the most cutting-edge, so there is such a possibility." Wu Mian said in a deep mood.

The research conducted by Musk's Neuralink team is not strictly speaking the most advanced.

For the past 15 years, scientists in Europe and the United States have been testing patients with brain implants. By implanting chips, patients can move the cursor or robotic arms.

The way of implanting chips in the brain is no longer fresh enough [新fo], and there are many related experiments and tests. Neuralink's brain-computer interface is not representative of the times.

However, other experimental parties have large consortia behind them, and the research progress has never been announced. Wu Mian is a native of China, and it is almost impossible to obtain such top-secret data.

These studies themselves involve topics such as eternity and immortality, and any breakthroughs will be kept secret.

And Musk's commercial company may be an alternative.

Back to the rental house, after washing, Wu Mian put Chu Zhixi to sleep first, then opened the notebook and contacted Neuralink.

But the answer disappointed Wu Mian.

Even for a commercial company like Neuralink, data about brain-computer interfaces are tightly sealed. Moreover, Neuralink did not hesitate because of Wu Mian's status in the medical industry. They rejected it altogether, and there was no possibility of joint development.

Wu Mian shrugged, this was all in his expectation.

Open the academic website, find an article by Dr. Denis Ducreux, a professor and head of the Department of Diagnostic Neuroradiology at Bicêtre Hospital Paris-Sud, France, and start researching.

When General Medical's nuclear magnetic machine was first produced, Dr. Denis Ducreux used a 48-channel head coil and his own DTI sequence to capture clear MRI images.

In this video, he uses the green sphere to represent the gray matter of the brain, and the red line represents the white matter pathways in the brain. The larger the sphere, the more connections between them and the white matter channels, indicating stronger neural connections.

The images are beautiful and magnificent, and people are impressed by the magic of biological structure. But Wu Mian didn't take a second look, because he had already read this article six months ago when it first came out.

Looking for the latest information, Wu Mian found that there were no more scientific reports, so he straightened up and stretched his waist.

Standing up gently, seeing that Chu Zhixi was already asleep, Wu Mian crept out the smoke and walked to the balcony.

Lighting a cigarette and looking at Bajingzi under the curtain of night, Wu Mian was lost in thought.

He reversely deconstructed the DTI sequence established by Dr. Denis Ducreux. This is not difficult for Wu Mian. The difficult thing is how to realize his idea.

In any case, Wu Mian's goal is always to cure illness. The little guy was still "sleeping" in Jianxie Hospital, and he was always trying to wake him up.

But a "vegetable" of unknown origin, without any previous information, is not easy to do so.

Although Wu Mian found it difficult, there was no fear of it.

This is how scientific research is. There is a fog and no light in the front, and every step of the way out does not know whether it is right or wrong. Some researchers have studied for a lifetime, and finally find that they have taken a wrong path.

It's like the ancient idiom of "turning on the opposite side" ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The direction is reversed, and it is basically impossible to go around again.

Wu Mian knew that the situation he faced was better.

At the very least, there have been decades of accumulation, and countless scientific researchers have explored directions. Moreover, Wu Mian highly suspects that the SIGNA Architect 3.0T equipment produced by General Medical and the DTI sequence established by Dr. Denis Ducreux subsequently restores the distribution of brain nerve fiber bundles by calculating the different diffusion speeds of water molecules in different directions. This is one of the studies of cloned sheep. Follow-up research.

In other words, in order to study "thinking", foreign researchers have prepared weapons and have explored a new set of methods.

It is always easier to stand on the shoulders of giants.

After smoking, Wu Mian did not go back immediately, and did not waste a minute and a second to work. Instead, he quietly watched Bajingzi's night and fell into thought.

At the same night, Wang Qingshan was also meditating, lying on the hospital bed looking at the snow-white ceiling and unable to sleep.
