Because this person he knew was exactly the Hu Xuefeng he knew when he was in Puhai in China. (Baidu search to force literature network to update the fastest and most stable)

At that time, he had to **** a set of Taizu porcelain from his family's ancestors because he wanted to collect living expenses in the United States, but he was bullied by his bully classmates for a while.

In the end, he helped him out of the siege, and spent four million to buy the set of Taizu porcelain in his hand.

When he came to New York later, he also went to the result station and reported to Columbia University, and also drove him there by himself.

During that time, as long as I was free, I drove him around Manhattan and New York. The purpose was to let him adapt to life here as soon as possible. This kid is quite good at it.

It is said that when he was away from home, when he went to Boston and London, he often came to the store to help out voluntarily.

Later, it was also because he seemed to find some kind of temporary worker, so he didn't come often. Otherwise, Jin Muchen would probably see him once or twice a week in his own home.

When Hu Xuefeng brought the coffee over, he was stunned when he saw him, and the expression on his face was very happy, but when he was about to speak to him, Jin Muchen gave him a wink and motioned him to talk later.

This kid is much smarter now than when he saw him in China before. When he saw Jin Muchen's eyes, he closed his mouth and went out with a tea tray.

At this time, Scott also started the main topic, took out some PPT and started to show them the scientific research results of the ADATA laboratory on the whiteboard in front of the conference room.

"Kim, Harvey, I think 3D printing technology, the application in the medical field, I don't need to say more, you all know that. Now in this regard, the University of Cincinnati, and the University of Miami, they are all in the lead. But I This laboratory. The direction of the project is different from theirs. Now we are targeting human bones and the research and development of replacement joints..."

Scott began to speak, and Jin Muchen also listened to him.

He originally studied pharmacology before, although not specialized in clinical medicine. But what Scott said, he generally understood.

Modern medicine, especially in orthopedics, has several problems, one of which is bone replacement.

Necrosis of the femoral head is now a disease. Many people have heard that the main cause of this disease is, on the one hand, ischemic femoral head necrosis caused by trauma, another is bone necrosis caused by aging of the human body, and the other is due to the abuse of hormone drugs. , resulting in necrosis of the femoral head.

And now worldwide, the complication rate of this condition is increasing year by year, especially in North America. In economically developed regions such as Europe, the complication rate of this disease is increasing at a rate of 20% every year.

Many people may not understand that this disease is not a disease of wealth, so why is the incidence of European and American people so high?

Of course, this has a lot to do with the eating habits of Europeans and Americans. As we all know, there is a very important variety in the staple food of Europeans and Americans, that is beef, and even a lot of meat. Their intake is from East Asia, and even several times the population of the rest of the world. Even dozens of times.

A large amount of meat intake has important benefits for the development of the human body, but it also has very bad disadvantages.

For example, eating too much meat will bring about three highs. Obesity and other problems, and on the other hand, this is the problem of necrosis of the femoral head.

Because people like to eat meat, this also indirectly stimulates the development of animal husbandry in developed countries such as Europe and the United States, and there are few animal husbandry industries that do not use auxin in large quantities.

For example, chickens that are slaughtered in forty days. Or pigs that are released for three months, or beef cattle that are formed in one year, the reason why these animals grow so fast, many of them are prompted by various hormones.

And people who eat a lot of this meat, of course, also take in a variety of excessive hormones.

This is also the main reason why we see so many European and American boys and girls are precocious, with strong body hair and obvious secondary sexual characteristics.

It is precisely because of this excessive intake of hormones that various strange diseases have frequently occurred in Europe and the United States in recent years. Although this femoral bone necrosis disease is not a strange disease, in recent decades, in Europe and the United States The incidence rate has increased significantly.

When Jin Muchen was in school, he read statistics from relevant medical institutions. In 203, hundreds of thousands of operations were performed in North America due to necrosis of the femoral head, which required bone replacement. . .

This data may not sound high, but what is the concept? You must know that the economically developed regions of North America, except for Mexico, can supply only more than 300 million people. . .

There are hundreds of thousands of people who have more than 300 million people every year. Every year, they have to undergo surgery to replace their bones. Moreover, the rate of this disease is still increasing at a rate of 20% every year. What does this mean?

This means a market with huge growth potential!

Most of the femoral head replacements that need surgery to replace are titanium alloy products, which are the least irritating to human muscle tissue and are non-toxic, so they can be used for a long time.

But this thing is metal after all. If this kind of bone is implanted into the body, it may cause inflammation, and people with different physiques have different rejection reactions to this replacement.

Some people may need to take medicine for a long time, and some people may cause other strange allergy symptoms because of this. In short, countless people are troubled by this implanted replacement every year.

And now Scott's scientific research project was created for this kind of replacement.

Their ultimate goal is to use this 3D printer to print real human bones to replace them in the human body.

Once this kind of replacement is replaced into the human body, then there is no need to worry about the later rejection, and there is no need to worry about inflammation and allergies caused by incompatibility with metal implants.

After listening to Scott's introduction, Jin Muchen was also interested, and asked a few questions, such as how far their progress is now, and so on.

And Scott and the others also took out a lot of printed products and showed them to Jin Muchen, so that he could have a direct understanding.

Even Scott and the others showed him a live show in front of Jin Muchen, directly printing a small piece of human bone tissue.

Jin Muchen felt very satisfied after reading it, this project seems to be the right one.

Before coming, he also did a search on the Internet, and got a general understanding of the 3D printing of human bones and joints.

There are many universities and medical research institutions doing research in this area, but they are all limited by the ratio of materials, the process of processing, and how to design 3D printing procedures, and the progress is extremely slow.

Unexpectedly, Weigang has already overcome most of the problems, and now this project can be seen.

"It can be said that we have made breakthroughs in femoral head replacement, and now what we lack is the funds to start clinical trials. I have contacted several hospitals in California, and they are also willing to use our The finished product can be used for experiments, but the premise is that we also need a fund to start the project.”

When Scott said this, he looked at Jin Muchen with a little anticipation in his eyes.

Jin Muchen didn't say much, but looked at Scott and nodded: "What about your next project? And what are the future prospects?"

"We are now preparing for the next stage of the scientific research project, and this project, we are going to conquer the knee replacement..."

Hearing Scott's words, Jin Muchen's eyes suddenly lit up, this guy is really shrewd, it seems that he is not only a scientific research talent, but also has a good market vision!

It can be said that knee replacement is the most used human bone replacement in the world.

There are millions of cases of knee replacement surgery worldwide every year, and the proportion is also at a stage of rapid increase.

Moreover, such operations are also more common in developed countries such as Europe, America, Japan, etc. In recent years, in China, the cases of such operations are increasing year by year.

Rheumatoid arthritis, and degenerative joint disease in the elderly, are the main reasons for this increase in surgery.

In Europe and the United States, this kind of disease, in Jin Muchen's view, is a process that almost every elderly person must go through. Those who have money will have surgery to change it, and those who have no money can only use a wheelchair or use a cane. . .

The reason for this is of course related to the clothing habits of the people here. You can often see those young girls from Europe and the United States on TV, wearing a short skirt on the street in winter, even in the weather within ten degrees above zero. , and also have two long @legs exposed outside, on the one hand because they are often high-calorie foods and are really not afraid of cold, on the other hand because they love beauty.

But if you think that the Chinese dress like them, then you must be amused. . .

Don't look at the joy of dancing when you are young~www.wuxiaspot.com~ When you are old, you have to pull the list.

In Europe and the United States, senile degenerative joint disease and rheumatoid arthritis, but in the hardest-hit areas, almost every person after the age of 50 will have such a disease.

Therefore, in Jin Muchen's view, this is also a promising market.

Hearing this, Jin Muchen already felt that Scott's idea had touched him, and his research institute was worth investing in just for their scientific research direction.

In the current medical market, the mainstream knee replacements are also made of titanium alloys. Many patients will not only experience pain relief after implanting this replacement, but will suffer from repeated knee inflammation due to rejection, which requires a lot of food. medicine.

Once Scott's research is successful, the future is too optimistic. (To be continued.) WWW.GEILIWX.COM happy reading every day
