Chapter 1052: Really Rich

Graduate students from the Institute of Surgery and researchers from the Digital Medicine Laboratory all helped to look at the pictures. Unfortunately, after looking at thousands of pictures, only one picture showed the structure of the virus in the cell, and no signs of apoptosis of tumor cells were observed. No other pictures, whether pictures of tumor cells or normal cells, showed the structure of the K virus.

These were all expected by Yang Ping, because the experiment could not be smooth sailing, and there would definitely be problems of one kind or another during the period. The success of the experiment is the process of constantly solving problems and correcting the route until the final success. Many experiments still fail in the end even after great efforts and countless work.

Moreover, one of these pictures now shows the structure of the K virus in the tumor cell. In fact, this is already a huge success, indicating that the K virus can successfully reach the tumor cell and then infect it.

There are several possibilities for this situation now. The first possibility is that most of the virus is eliminated by the immune system during the process of being transported to the tumor by the blood. Second, it is possible that many viruses reach the tumor, and the success rate of infecting tumor cells is extremely low. Third, the virus that infects the tumor cell can activate the cell's apoptosis program, but the cell that activates the apoptosis program is not captured. Fourth, it is possible that the virus cannot activate the apoptotic cell.

No matter how many possibilities there are, one thing is certain, K virus can infect tumor cells, it's just a matter of ability and probability, and now this picture is the most powerful evidence.

There are tens of thousands of pictures taken by electronic photography, and the efficiency of reading pictures by manpower is too low, and it is also unhealthy for the eyes.

Sharpening the knife does not delay cutting wood, Yang Ping decided to use computer assistance, and he suggested that Director He's team develop an artificial intelligence model to help distinguish these pictures.

In fact, it is not difficult for Director He's team to develop such a model, because they already have an artificial intelligence model for image recognition, but it is mainly used for pathological sections and image images. This model has a very mature image recognition ability in pathological sections and image images, which has surpassed most doctors.

Doctors may be very hard to read hundreds of pathological sections a day, but artificial intelligence can read tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of pictures in a few seconds. This efficiency has been used in medicine. In the future, many hospitals can fully automate the reading of pathological sections, and there is no need for pathologists to read the films. The job of pathologists is just to make pathological sections. If the production of pathological sections can also be automated, then pathologists only need to simply process pathological specimens.

Any artificial intelligence needs a lot of data to feed, otherwise it will just be an "idiot". There is no precedent to refer to for the image recognition of the extracted cell electron microscope images in this experiment, so there is no data to feed the artificial intelligence.

Although Professor He has developed an image artificial intelligence model using digital human technology, which is specifically used for intelligent film reading, such as X-rays, MRI and CT films, this model has been fed with a lot of data and has evolved well.

However, for tumor cell images under electron microscopes, these are brand new images, and there is no large amount of data to feed, so the artificial model cannot be evolved and is not very useful.

Professor He can only develop an image analysis engine based on the experience summarized by Yang Ping. This engine does not need big data to feed, and it can analyze the image. If the analyzed structure is the same as that of tumor cells and there is no redundant structure, the image is marked as non-infected.

If extra structures are found inside the cell, the extra structures are immediately taken out separately and enter the next analysis program. If the analyzed morphological structure is partially or completely the same as that of the virus, it is marked as infected.

If the uncertain images are marked as unclear, these images will be left for manual analysis. After that, the experience will be summarized based on the results of manual analysis and applied to the improvement of the model, so that its engine becomes more and more advanced and its recognition ability becomes stronger and stronger.

This is actually similar to the engine of antivirus software analyzing computer viruses. The difference is that antivirus software analyzes the code of computer viruses, and this software analyzes electron microscope images, but the general principle is similar.

In short, Yang Ping will now work closely with Professor He's team to develop various different segmentation models to assist experiments. When the artificial intelligence big model comes out, the big model will be used to assist scientific research and greatly improve the efficiency of scientific research.

It takes Professor He more than one or two days to develop a model. Although he already has the basic models acquired to use, and his team has digested and absorbed these models, it takes some time to modify them.

When Ruixing Medical acquired the model, there was a model that specialized in laboratory biological image recognition. Professor He's team could improve on this model, which saved a lot of time.

In fact, acquisition is not a bad thing. If we can digest and absorb his technology after the acquisition, it can greatly shorten the research and development time and keep pace with the international level.

Yang Ping decided to stop reading the pictures temporarily and wait for Professor He's image recognition engine to be developed before continuing to read the next pictures. He wants to focus on modifying the structure of the virus.

From the data collected in the first experiment, the K virus must have caused a strong reaction in Sisi's immune system. This reaction is very dangerous and sometimes fatal.

Therefore, Yang Ping’s first task now is to change the implantation position of the K virus. This position is very important and directly affects the interaction between the K virus and the human immune system. It must reduce its stimulation of the immune system. It is best to not cause adverse symptoms like some viruses. , or cause only mild, transient flu symptoms.

——

After Sisi experienced a high fever caused by the K-virus injection for the first time, her whole body suffered a huge blow, which took time to recover. Fortunately, the functions of various important organs have not been significantly damaged so far.

After the operation, Yang Ping continuously collected MRI images of each of Sisi's metastases. He chose MRI as the imaging examination. Its biggest advantage is that there is no ionizing radiation, unlike CT, PET-CT, etc., which must have ionizing radiation. Multiple applications can have negative effects on the body.

Tumor marker monitoring has also officially begun. A tube of blood is drawn almost every day for these tests to dynamically monitor changes in tumor markers.

After having a high fever, Sisi's appetite was not very good, but the little girl was very sensible. She knew that recovery would be slower if she didn't eat, so she forced herself to eat more so that she would recover as quickly as possible. Her mother also went out of her way to prepare delicious food for her, but unfortunately her taste buds had not recovered yet, so even the most delicious food tasted like nothing in Sisi's mouth.

In fact, the situation at that time was equivalent to an escape from death. A new virus was catastrophic to the human body's immune system, but fortunately, it was not so new that it seemed to be similar to the original virus. Similarity, the human body still has the ability to kill it and has the experience to deal with it.

For example, in some areas of the Arctic, many viruses are frozen in the ice. If one day the ice melts and these viruses come back to life, it will be a huge threat to humans, because human immunity has not dealt with them and lacks immunity to them. combat experience.

Viruses that humans usually come into contact with, such as various viruses that cause colds, humans have frequently dealt with them or their ancestors during the long process of evolution. Our immunity has enough experience in dealing with them, so in most cases, we can defeat them. It only fails on rare occasions.

Yang Ping had the first conversation with Sisi's parents after the first experiment. Yang Ping fed back the results of the experiment to them. They said that no matter what the results were, they would fully cooperate with Yang Ping and let Yang Ping not feel any pressure. They could bear all the consequences and were very grateful to Yang Ping for doing his best for Sisi.

Mr. and Mrs. Hermes have always been concerned about Sisi's condition. After this laboratory, they also came to Yang Ping to understand the situation. Sisi is now their goddaughter.

After Yang Ping introduced the results of the experiment, Hermes sighed:

"I do have a fate with this child, and I feel sorry for him in my heart. Just like my own daughter, Professor Yang, please tell me where money is needed. I can't help with other things, but I can still help with money matters. Just tell me what equipment you want to buy. I heard that this experimental treatment is quite expensive. , those laboratory equipment are very expensive, remember to tell me what equipment you want, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, now brother I am not like before, now I have a lot of money, to tell you the truth , I now have not only gold and diamond mines in Africa, but also lithium and iron ores. My fortune has been very good recently. These minerals are not only high in content and good in quality, but also very easy to mine and low in cost, so they are very profitable to sell. I don’t want to say too much. Nowadays, you can get billions of dollars at any time. Tens of billions doesn't mean it's impossible, hundreds of billions doesn't mean it's impossible, there's nothing else, now Brother, I just have a lot of money. You can use me wherever money is needed. Lao Huang is engaged in medical technology. It makes money slowly and there are many places to use money. It’s not like me and a money printing machine, so you have nothing to do with me. Don’t be polite, money is just for spending, and as long as it’s spent in the right place, I won’t feel bad.”

Although Hermès is rich, his feelings are still very sincere, Yang Ping understands in his heart.

"This is not a matter of money. Now we are encountering some problems. These problems need to be solved one by one. However, although the results of the first experimental treatment are not very good, they are not the worst either. This is normal. In the world, Many things are like this, good or bad, this is pretty good, just wait patiently." Yang Ping knew that he was anxious, so he comforted her.

"Professor Yang, where is this little girl Sisi? How should I put it? I just said that I am destined to her. To tell you the truth, I am not afraid of your laughter. I was planning to jump off the surgical building after I went bankrupt. Really, I At that time, all thoughts were lost and I had no hope for life. But after seeing Sisi, my mood completely changed. Wow, a little girl of eight or nine years old who is terminally ill can be so optimistic, so positive, and see life and death so clearly. I am almost forty years old and in good health. You even helped me heal one of my legs. I Is there any reason to cherish life and the opportunity to live in this world?”

As he was talking, Hermes actually shed tears. His wife handed him a tissue. He wiped his tears and continued, "It's not someone else anyway, so don't laugh at me. This little girl will help me open another world, a world full of sunshine and beauty. So now I have seen through it. I have so much money in my hand. If I don't use it to do something meaningful, the money will be wasted in my hands. People, living in this world, whether long or short, must do something meaningful to make their lives worthwhile. So I tell you, Professor Yang, you are a medical genius. If I give all my money to you, it will be better than giving it to others. You can definitely come up with something, and what you come up with can definitely save many lives, so I think my money has also saved meaningful lives."

"Isn't Ruixing Medical now working on artificial intelligence with Nandu University? I heard that this is very helpful for Sisi's experiment. Ruixing has set up a special company to study this. I heard that it is very expensive. Otherwise, I will get a few billion and give it to Lao Huang? Let them work on artificial intelligence?" Hermes asked.

"This is very risky. We are currently losing money." Yang Ping said.

"Oh, it's OK to treat it as a donation. What's the point of talking about risk? I've said that this money is not for making money, but for creating some meaning. I'm uneducated and can't speak. I used to dig coal, and now I dig gold. I can only make money by doing these unskilled things. Don't despise me." Hermes has to give the money away today, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable.

"If you really want to, then I'll tell them that when you invest, you take your own risks anyway."

"No problem, as a gold digger, what risks should I be afraid of? As long as there is gold in the soil, I'm not afraid of risks. Besides, what's the big deal if the money is gone? At worst, I can go to the overpass to sing for money. ”

Hermes has money but nowhere to put it. As long as Yang Ping needs money, he will throw money into it regardless of whether there will be a return on investment in the future. Some messy investment experts suggested that he invest in this and that, but he rejected them all, thinking that it was useless.

"It seems that Professor He of Nandu University needs money for his research. I will donate a few hundred million to him? I will put more than ten billion into your laboratories. Also, the genetics laboratory of Nandu Medical University, I heard that your eldest brother-in-law's wife is in charge, I will donate a few hundred million to her project, who else? Oh, Nandu Affiliated Hospital No. 1, I will donate another sum. "Hermes counted on his fingers and planned how to spend the money.

This?

What a rich man!

"And!"

Hermes remembered: "Well, didn't I hear that Lao Huang had a fight with others recently? I will use a few mines to back him up. "
