As far as Zheng Jianguo knows, there are many classifications of papers. Because they involve different fields and disciplines, the requirements for writing papers will be very different, and their functions will naturally be different.
In terms of research field, it can be divided into social science papers and natural science papers, while in terms of research methods, it can be divided into descriptive papers, applied papers and summary papers. If it is divided from the perspective of paper form, it can be divided into term papers or academic year papers and scientific papers, degree papers, investigation reports, internship reports and research papers, etc.
Of course, from Zheng Jianguo's point of view, there are only two kinds of papers, that is, top journals and ordinary journals, which are classified from the value of papers. After all, although he has served as two reviewers in the three major American Medical Journals of the New England Journal of medicine, the lancet and the Journal of the American Medical Association, he has only been to the top science once, I went up with Professor Fisher.
In fact, Zheng Jianguo most wants to go to science. The era of dividing the world between nature in his memory and cell, which is not well-known, has not yet come. The former has a long history, was founded in 1869, and has the pure blood as its founder.
Although nature became the official publication of the American Association for the advancement of science when it was founded more than 100 years ago, due to Edison's status as a businessman, it did not spread its influence to Europe for a long time. It was not until the latter plundered more than half of the world's talents, technology and funds in World War II that the latter went abroad——
As for cell, which has only been established for more than five years, it is still a magazine that has not attracted people's attention. Even the editor's office is located in every corner of MIT Press. In the daytime, dim lights are on in the corridor, and a large note is pasted on the mottled door, which reads: "the editorial department of cell magazine."
A faint musty smell ran into his nostrils. When Zheng Jianguo, who frowned, wanted to raise his hand and knock on the door, two closed wooden doors were opened. A man with messy hair and a gray coat looked stunned. He opened his mouth in a clear and full tone with a slight nasal voice: "Xiansheng, this is the editorial department of cell magazine --"
"Well, Hello, this is Zheng Jianguo. I'm looking for Mr. Valentine Levin. Is he there?"
Today, Zheng Jianguo wears casual clothes instead of yesterday's fishbone pattern three piece suit and large leather shoes, but his hair still has a big back. After saying this, the man looked stunned before meeting. Suddenly, a red appeared on his white face, full of laughter. He quickly took off his leather gloves and leaned out: "ah, Zheng, sorry, I'm Leon, Mr. Levin's assistant, Fast forward, fast forward, Mr. Levin is still in -- "
When Leon and Zheng Jianguo shook hands and talked, they had turned sideways and pushed open the door behind them. The latter also saw a large office with a total area of 200 square meters. At this time, as Leon's voice spread, many people on the table looked up, and he looked inside with these faint eyes: "I didn't disturb your office --"
"No, no, Mr. Levin will be happy if you can come. Sorry, our conditions are relatively poor. We don't have a reception room. Let's go. I'll take you to his office -"
Leon took off his coat and introduced it in his hand. He saw Zheng Jianguo smile and say, "entrepreneurship is almost like doing research in my opinion. After selecting the field, he applied for funds with the direction. Entrepreneurship is using the project to find investors, and then facing the idea collision between the laboratory director and investors -"
"Ah, oh, oh!"
Leon obviously didn't expect Zheng Jianguo to say so. He applied and looked at his side face in amazement. By now, he had already arrived in front of the editor in chief's office. Just before he went to open the door, someone opened the door. Valentine Levin saw Zheng Jianguo at the door and immediately showed a rotten smile: "Oh, Zheng, how did you come here? Welcome to come, Leon, Please pour me a cup of coffee. Thank you -- "
"I went to Daytona Beach, Florida the day before yesterday. I heard Levin's message when I came back yesterday."
Zheng Jianguo watched Leon leave and entered the so-called editor in chief office. He said that Valentine Levin introduced the two people to him after closing the door: "this is Igor angulis, editor in chief of our magazine, and Abraham lansdorn, editor. My assistant Leon Cordell brought you in just now. Hi, this is Dr. Zheng Jianguo - Zheng, I heard you passed step 2? "
"Yes, Levin, I'm lucky this time. I got an A and only got a B + - last time"
The detective shook hands with Igor anglis and editor Abraham lansdorn. After Zheng Jianguo said it, Levin nearby shouted, "Oh, Zheng, you are so powerful. You are the most powerful person I have ever seen - an 18-year-old medical doctor! Oh, what meeting did you go to? Sit down quickly. "
"Thank you. Yes, the exchange organized by the cancer society."
Zheng Jianguo smiled at Iger angulis and editor Abraham lansdorn. Sitting on the sofa without a cover, he turned to Valentine Levin sitting next to him and said with a smile: "I heard your message when I came back yesterday. I happened to make a speech at the meeting. See if you can publish it."
"Zheng, your article must be OK -"
With a smile, Levin took the envelope from Zheng Jianguo and opened it. The reason why he knew that the goods had passed the Step2 test was because he was the most authoritative reviewer of cell magazine at present, and he was not one of them.
From mid-1974 to 1980, cell has been established for more than five years. During these five years, Levin has made every effort to invite industry experts who can be contacted.
However, in view of the short establishment time of cell, it can be said that there are two or three big cats and kittens over the years. As a last resort, he can only reduce the paper screening criteria, which is contrary to his original intention of creating cell——
The level of published papers directly determines the level of the journal in the field, but facing the threat of survival, Levin can only try his best to find a general in the lame until he heard that Xueba from the Far East chose Harvard Medical School.
Levin has contacted many Chinese in Chinatown, so he knows that Xueba should not have high EQ, otherwise he can't go back and choose Harvard Medical School after agreeing to Mayo's invitation in Mecca.
After all, Mayo Clinic has the title of medical Mecca in the United States, offending such a powerful medical group. As long as a normal medical student knows what will happen - unfortunately, the atomic graphite layer appeared before he contacted him.
Levin did not dare to underestimate this seemingly "lucky" Oriental school bully, but threw away all his plans and plans to face it directly. However, he did not expect that his character was not as introverted and shy as other Chinese, just as he was calm and intelligent when facing reporters and cameras——
Until yesterday morning, when he heard the news of the Step2 test, Levin knew that he could not wait any longer. He had obtained the Harvard Medical School Diploma in less than two years, but he had not published any articles in cell.
The discovery of Helicobacter in 1978 shocked gastroenterologists all over the world!
The discovery of atomic graphite layer in 1979 shook the thermodynamic law of solid physics!
In 1980, he became the youngest graduate of Harvard Medical School. Should he be famous again?
Xueba's aura still lingers on Zheng Jianguo's forehead——
It was only in a short time that Levin judged that Zheng Jianguo's graduation this time would be very likely to be famous all over the world again. If he could publish a paper on cell at this time, even if it was only an overview article, it would certainly bring unimaginable improvement to cell - he only knew such a Nobel Prize candidate.
With a smile, Valentin Levin opened the not thick envelope, and a few strange strands flashed in his eyes. Just from his experience in opening letters over the years, at the moment of starting with such a thin envelope, he knew that there were only two or even one piece of stationery in it.
Then it can't be a paper. Did the goods really write a summary for themselves?
With a faint idea in his mind, Levin couldn't help looking at the curious Iger angulis, took out a piece of stationery in the envelope, then looked down at the title, and was stunned: "the turning point of cancer research - the analysis of the human genome?!"
"Zheng, come and have coffee -"
When Valentine Levin read the letter, Leon went into the editor in chief's room with a pot of coffee and some cups. Without exception, he put the cups in front of several people and asked Zheng Jianguo to drink. The latter smiled and picked up the cup and said, "thank you, Leon!"
After thanking him, Zheng Jianguo also turned to Levin who was reading the letter: "yes, this is my speech at the cancer conference. One of the purposes of cancer research is to use modern scientific methods and technologies to confirm the pathological mechanism of cancer, such as the in vitro culture of cancer cells and the study of virus infection. The research on tissues of various parts is carried out almost at the same time——
However, in my opinion, these research experiments on cancer cells and virus infection based on in vitro culture are disturbed by too many uncertain external factors. After all, the occurrence and process of cancer in the human body can not be seen, and the research based on in vitro can not be applied to the tissues in the human body.
In my country, there is an idiom to describe this operation, which is called the blind man touching the elephant and peeping at the leopard. When the invisible person touches the elephant leg, he will say that the elephant is a pillar, while the person touching the elephant trunk will say that it is a pipe. As for the person touching the elephant ear, he will say that it is a PU fan, and the person peeping at the leopard is different——
I think the change of cancerous tissue is the result of its own tissue lesions, which is very different from the current mainstream tumor virology. Of course, out of respect for the authority of statistics, I don't think this is absolute. After all, the number of people diagnosed with lung cancer among smokers is dozens of times that of non-smokers -- "
Zheng Jianguo knows more about the state of cancer in the future than those present. Of course, he knows more about the prosperity of molecular biology in the next 30 years. The result is to push cell to a position comparable to science and nature, all of which originate from the continuous understanding and understanding of human genes: "so, I think that at present, people are fighting their own battles in cancer research. It is entirely possible to change the research direction to analyze the sequence of the human genome first, so as to achieve the purpose of understanding cancer -- "
"Yes, only understanding can face -"
After reading the summary in his hand word by word, Valentine Levin looked up excitedly, looked at Zheng Jianguo, who was holding up his coffee, but quickly said with curiosity: "that's what you said at the conference?"
"Yes, that's what I said at the conference. Only their meeting will end today, that is to say, I didn't form an article on the content of my speech, and then I received your call. Now the conference hasn't thought of it yet -"
Zheng Jianguo nodded with a smile. Of course, he knew Valentine Levin's concerns. Although the cancer association is not an official organization, it is reasonable to think that the presidents of the house of Commons and the director general of who were present, so it is reasonable to compile and publish the speeches at the meeting.
Now, before the phone reaches him, give it to Levin for publication. When the other party knows, they can only stare - if you don't say hello in advance, I'll find someone to send it myself. Can't you blame me?
Of course, Zheng Jianguo's biggest advantage is his age: "even if I do find it on my head, I will have something to say. I don't understand what's going on in these unofficial formal meetings, do I?"
"Well, thank you, Zheng, thank you for your trust in me!"
Valentin Levin's smile softened a lot. After he said it, he handed it to Iger angulis, the editor in chief who was looking at him. The latter quickly took it over and said, "Zheng, sit down first. I'll go out and let them see. Abraham and Leon, come out."
"Oh, yes! Mr. editor in chief, go and be busy! "
Put down the coffee, stood up and watched Iger go out with others. Zheng Jianguo sat down again and drank the coffee. Then he turned to look at Valentine Levin nearby and smiled: "Mr. Levin, I think the future molecular biology society will make great achievements. This is also the reason why I chose cell to publish this review. At present, based on my understanding of cell, Its competitors are not without them. I want to confirm your positioning of cell -- "
"My position on cell?"
Valentine Levin's smile was slightly hard. Zheng Jianguo nodded and said, "yes, I wonder if you want to develop cell like the New England Journal of medicine and the lancet, or even more authoritative science and nature than both."
"You --"
When the smile on Valentin Levin's face quickly faded, Zheng Jianguo even opened up his purpose of coming this time: "if Mr. Levin wants to run it into the New England Journal of medicine and the lancet, or even an authoritative journal that can keep pace with science and nature, I will provide you with all-round support from capital to academia, You should know that I will enter the MD and PhD joint training program of Massachusetts General Hospital after graduation -- "
