Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu stayed in the library until evening, and then they stopped in a trance.

The data they searched were not limited to the latest issues or dozens of issues. The oldest data was almost in the early 1970s. With the development speed of biotechnology, it was almost as long as a century.

However, in addition to repetitive or meaningless information, Professor Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu basically did not find anything useful.

"How did he do it?" Professor Fu thought it was incredible.

Xu Zhengping shook his head and laughed: "before I came in, I didn't expect such a disaster."

"No one wants it. If I hadn't known in advance, I would have thought that Yang Rui had a big team of 50 people under him. " Professor Fu then turned his eyes and said, "do you think Yang Rui has been preparing for this project for a long time?"

"How long?"

"A year or two?"

"He was still preparing to reread two years ago. He didn't have the time to do this. After that, I also wrote a paper on potassium channel, competing with Richard's speed... Besides, this topic also takes into account the research field of Professor Kato of Dongda. Cooperation is always like cooperation. "

Professor Fu nodded silently, for a moment, lost a smile, said: "this ability, Leng is let people have no words."

"Don't worry. Professor Qian of our department of chemistry can't forget everything at a glance. What can we do about the ability of heaven and earth?" Xu Zhengping then said, "in fact, you don't have to use this skill. If you can write a paper now, Yang Rui is quite speechless."

Professor Fu's expression froze for a moment, and said: "I said what Yang Rui said, there is nothing to say."

"That's what I mean. Come on, let's pack up and go. I'll give these back." Xu Zhengping called a student to move all the materials to the librarian.

The great librarian of Peking University immediately opened the elevator and moved it up one by one.

"We've checked so many things. I can't imagine how Yang Rui did it." Professor Fu tired hem's help to carry, has the profound understanding to this quantity.

The great librarian of Peking University registered one by one. By the way, he asked with a smile: "after checking so many materials, don't borrow some back?"

"No, Yang Rui has prepared all these materials." Xu Zhengping is a little helpless.

"Oh," said the great librarian of Peking University, "Yang Rui is from biology department, isn't he? The author of the cell paper

"Yes, you know that."

"If you write about cell in your whole life, it will spread all over Beijing." The great librarian laughed and said, "if others don't know, we can't help but know. By the way, you can send the new watch."

Professor Fu asked, "what watch?"

"The new moon summary sent by cell."

"What else?"

"Of course. This is cell. Look at people. You only need to publish an article, and the number of citations in the next year or two will be calculated for you. "

"All references?"

"Yes, I don't know whether it's Thomson or Reuters."

Professor Fu hesitated and asked, "how many quotations have Yang Rui made?"

The great librarian of Peking University gave a mysterious smile: "guess."

Professor Fu and Xu Zhengping nearly choked to death.

"How much?" Professor Fu's local accent has come out

"Guess what."

"Guess..." this time, even Xu Zhengping's eyebrows stand up. If there were not too many hidden characters in the librarian, he would jump up.

"Cell has 3 citations in the current period, 13 citations in the next three issues, and total citations... Ha ha, you can't imagine."

"Just say it." Professor Fu is not interested in the current quotation and the third quotation at all, or he has guessed it for a long time.

Last time, Yang Rui's paper had three citations in the current period, and the number of citations in the next three issues was 11. Now, the number of citations in the current period has not changed, and the number of citations in the next three issues has become 13. Although it is a terrible data for ordinary players, it is not surprising for a cell paper.

Of course, because it is the number of citations in the current period and in the next three periods of cell, whether it is 3 or 13, it is very rare in itself. In other words, ordinary cell articles can not get such data, but with the last comparison, Professor Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu are not surprised.What they are more concerned about is the total number of citations.

After all, including domestic universities and government agencies, when we do quantitative evaluation, we analyze the total number of citations.

For researchers, this is a very important indicator, because the reference indicators are the total number of citations.

Whether from the perspective of career or from the perspective of personal interests, funding, professional titles and government appointments are closely related to the researcher himself, especially the latter. Academicians can be said to be well-known government appointments. In addition, such appointments as school presidents are related to politics as well as academy.

Of course, the ultimate government appointment is academic think tanks and industry authorities. People like Greenspan have been able to implement independent financial policies without the government to some extent.

In the field of biology, food policy, agricultural policy, medical policy and medical insurance policy are not political figures who can say that they will not. Therefore, the people who make the final decision can only be trusted scholars.

When they were young, Professor Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu might have dreamed of becoming academic leaders. But when they were in their 30s and 40s, they had a basic understanding of what they could do, and their mind gradually faded.

However, Professor Xu Zhengping and Professor Fu can not predict where Yang Rui will go.

It's also a major source of curiosity.

The librarian was dazzled by the two people's eyes. He quickly turned the book and said, "77."

"How much!" Professor Fu startled himself with the rising volume.

The librarian quietly lowered the octave and said, "77, this is the total number of citations in more than one month."

"Sleeping at home for a month, you get 77 quotes?" Professor Fu's heart is crazy.

77 If it is a blog reprint, of course, it is not decent, but if it is a paper citation, it is not decent.

CELL According to 35, it means that in the past two years, the average number of cited papers published on cell is 35.

77 It's more than double 35.

If it is compared with the papers of the same period, the number will increase several times.

In fact, the number of citations of powerful papers often breaks through the sky, such as 500 citations that most researchers can't achieve in their lifetime.

However, most people have heard of such papers, and there are not many of them all the year round.

In the most normal papers, the number of citations is often single digits.

For example, Yang Rui's first published paper, biochemistry system ecology, is an entry-level SCI journal, with an average of 1 citation. In other words, in two years' time, the total number of citations is less than 20!

"I remember that the school wanted extra rewards for papers with more than 10 citations?" Xu Zhengping suddenly remembered this rule.

Even in Peking University, there are few papers with more than 10 citations. This is why the University encourages people to publish papers with high citations rather than accumulate citations for papers with low citations.

Professor Fu also remembers that he hesitated and said, "in the past, it was all for teachers. Is Yang Rui a good teacher?"

"Give Professor Cai a headache." Xu Zhengping filled in the form with a smile and took over the new moon summary.
