Chapter 411 The Father Of Mathematical Models Of Brain Circuits?
The message was from Fan Tao. He first attached a few photos of team members meeting in the laboratory, and then started chattering.
[We held several meetings and argued several times about the next research direction]
[Lou Jinghui wants to do confocal microscopy imaging technology and try to see if it can rely on the equipment. He has published a top article. He wants to apply for a laser scanning confocal microscope to do fluorescence images of the microstructure inside tissues and the mucus penetration of pharmaceutical preparations. , mouse brain neural stem cell slices can be made, and you can look for opportunities to publish papers while doing it]
[Ji Tianhe wants to do hippocampal spatial coding. He plans to apply for a group of autistic mice to observe the activity of hippocampal place cells and explore the cognitive impact of episodic memory on the external world. He needs to use electrodes, artificial brain worms and VR equipment allows autistic mice to remember the location of sugar water and observe the increase in the discharge frequency of certain brain cells]
[Professor Lu Chengen is more Buddhist. He plans to continue to promote sleep research on the brain. He will directly use sleep tablets as props and conduct experimental observations on various animals after taking sleep tablets to find out if there are any brain activities that have not been noticed by the academic community. Mechanism, he thinks it is easy to get one or two top publications]
[So everyone sent me to ask you about your attitude, which of these three routes should you take? Or don't go either way? 】
[Will you come back to do experiments together in the near future? If you come back, we will be very happy. If you don’t come back, when will we publish the results and prepare a paper? Can you sign your name as the corresponding author? 】
Song He burst into laughter.
There are academic conflicts within the team, which is a good thing. It shows that everyone is very motivated and has their own ideas.
What troubled him was the corresponding author.
When he published a paper last year, Lu Chengen was his corresponding author, but now it's the other way around?
After a moment of deliberation, he typed a reply.
[You three groups will each work on the projects they want to do. Whichever group publishes the top issue first, I will immediately give a bonus of 800,000, the second place will be 500,000, and the third place will be 300,000.]
After replying, put on the phone and start studying.
Song He tapped the keyboard to light up the screen computer again, then opened a new document and typed in the file name.
"Brain Cell-Road Network Mathematical Model"
After a whole day of intense exams, he confirmed one thing!
Whether it is the neurotransmitter conduction of brain cells or the traffic conditions of the urban road network, after eliminating the differences in details, both can be summarized using mathematical means to form a unified large model!
This may open up a new research direction in the field of mathematics. If you are bold, it may even form a new field of mathematics in the future!
It is usually at the intersection of two disciplines that such groundbreaking results are most likely to occur. Song He is very lucky that he found this exciting topic at the intersection of biology and mathematics!
On a smaller scale, if you have the opportunity to form a paper, it can be published in either a top journal in mathematics or a top journal in biology.
Speaking more broadly, once this research is completed, Song He may be titled "Father of Mathematical Models of Brain Circuits" in future textbooks, which will shock the past and present!
Of course, the premise is that he is faster than Black and White. The two brothers must be doing the same research!
Taking a deep breath, he calmed down his impetuous mood slightly and started typing.
His current research results can be divided into three categories:
The first level is a small town-level mathematical model of brain circuits, corresponding to 100 intersections or 100 brain cells!
He has researched this aspect very thoroughly, is an entry-level skill, and can easily write detailed analysis.
Of course, the entry-level here is for mathematicians. For ordinary college students, the mathematical models at this level are almost heavenly!
The second level is a county-level mathematical model of brain circuits, corresponding to 400 intersections or brain cells!
Song He has achieved some success in this area, but he is still far from being thorough.
He quickly wrote a lot of analysis and listed the model. Looking at it from left to right, it seemed to be quite comprehensive, so let’s leave it at that!
The third level, the mathematical model of brain circuits in third-tier cities, corresponds to 700 intersections or brain cells!
After writing this, Song He paused and did not add anything to it.
The reason is very simple. He was sharpening his skills during the exam, relying on luck and recklessness to make breakthroughs by accident. Most of them were by accident. The specific theoretical rules must be studied carefully and he dare not make false claims in advance.
After thinking about it for a while, he quickly wrote a few more lines:
The fourth level, the mathematical model of brain circuits in second-tier cities, corresponds to 2,000 intersections or brain cells!
The fifth level is a mathematical model of brain circuits in first-tier cities, corresponding to 5,000 intersections or brain cells!
The sixth level is a mathematical model of brain circuits in super first-tier cities, corresponding to 10,000 intersections or brain cells!
Under these three levels, Song He consciously raised a series of question marks.
Each question mark was like a glass of cold water poured on his head, reminding him how difficult the follow-up research would be. The hundreds of intersection models in the front were just playing tricks, while the future ones were all extremely difficult problems!
Just imagining a city with tens of thousands of intersections makes Song He feel like his head is going to explode!
Put on the oxygen mask, take a few deep breaths, and get to work!
Song He opened two software on his computer, a calculator and an urban road network generator.
His mental arithmetic ability was on the verge of reaching its limit, and it was really tiring to rely solely on his brain. He had been tired all day, so he easily used the calculator to type in the calculator at a slow speed. Slow down, just slow down.
The urban road network generator is the software used in the exam. It is powerful and runs realistically. At least it is clearer than putting peanuts or noodle soup drops on the table.
[Please select city size]
[Confirmed city size: about 700 intersections]
The computer fan roared, and the vast city spread out on the screen.
Each block is compressed as small as a soybean, and cars and pedestrians are as small as pixels.
Obviously there are only dozens more intersections than during the exam, but the whole city feels bigger!
Song He was secretly shocked. With seven hundred intersections, the screen could no longer capture the overall situation. Waiting for the last tens of thousands of intersections, what a spectacular sight it would be?
Put your hands on the keyboard, pause for a moment, and then start typing.
He is very proficient in using computers. He easily switches between the calculator and the urban road network generator, first doing some calculations, and then changing the mathematical modeling, going back and forth.
On the screen, the interface flashed back and forth, and the flashing frequency became faster and faster, so that it began to freeze.
The performance of the computer can no longer keep up with the speed of his thinking!
After Song He noticed the lag, he immediately picked up his phone and scanned the QR code to shop.
Search computers, sort by price, and buy the most expensive desktop computer directly, the price is... 128,888 yuan!
"Damn, it's so expensive!" Song He muttered, but paid without hesitation with his hands.
He doesn't have time to compare the cost performance and configuration of computers. Rich people usually buy the most expensive one, which is usually not too bad.
[In stock, expected to be delivered to your door around 12pm]
Song He continued to work with satisfaction, studying the mathematical models of 700 intersections.
On the screen, the city roads are constantly changing, sometimes with evil paths appearing, sometimes with simpler lines.
The mathematical model is deleted, modified, and the posture slightly changed.
An hour later, he finally let out a sigh of relief. The overall congestion rate dropped to 5%. There were almost no traffic jams, and all the vehicles in the city were running fast.
An urban area with 700 intersections is considered a thorough understanding. He opened the document and started writing the content of the third section, typing like flying!
Halfway through typing, the phone vibrated on the table.
Song He glanced at it and stopped moving his hands.
It’s actually the class group message from Zou Jianzhang’s Grade C class!
Ye Qian: "Teacher Zou, you said that the last big question in the exam at the beginning of the semester is the threshold for promotion to Class B, right?"
Zou Jianzhang: "That's right. After completing that big question, I will give you a quiz with a similar difficulty in class. If you pass it, you will be directly promoted to Class B. You will also get a reward of 5 credits."
Ye Jin: "Teacher, Ye Qian and I will apply for the promotion exam tomorrow!"
