Chapter 264 (1/2)
”Are you interested in brain computer interface technology?”
President's office of soft engineering institute.
Hearing Hao Yun's question, President Li Guoping stopped his work, and a trace of interest appeared on his face. After looking up and down at the students standing at the desk, he said in an incredible tone.
”I didn't expect you to be so interested in academic things... I thought you made a lot of money now, and you were not interested in these things.”
Hearing this, Hao Yun coughed and said.
”Why? These things are more challenging than making money. ”
”I don't know if you are flattering me or pretending to force me,” said President Li Guoping with a smile. After a pause, he continued in a serious tone. ”At present, brain computer interface technology is still in the PPT stage. If you are interested in the commercial application prospect of this technology, I can only tell you that it's too early.”
Hao Yun asked.
”But I heard that there seems to be new progress in this area recently?”
President Li Guoping said with a faint smile.
”It seems you did some homework before you came here.”
Looking at Hao Yun who was embarrassed to smile, he nodded and continued.
”Yes, there are rumors in the academic circles recently. When the Institute of neuroscience of the Academy of Sciences and the IDG Institute of brain science of the United College of Sciences studied the” neuron like material ”, they found a special carbon nano material, which can promote the full growth of neurons and form new synapses.”
”The relevant papers were probably published in international authoritative journals in July last year. At first, this technology was widely regarded as the best solution for 'neural prosthesis' and' damaged nerve repair ', but then a report on the field of brain and nerve made the domestic electronics industry giants who studied brain computer interface technology interested in this technology.”
”So during this period, you can see that many academic conferences and seminars are exchanging this topic. On the one hand, there is a broad prospect behind this research. On the other hand, there are many big money who are willing to pay for these related research. After all, it takes money to do research. No matter how relevant it is, you can make a few ppts to get investment for your own projects. Such opportunities are rare at ordinary times. ”
After listening to President Li Guoping's words, Hao Yun nodded thoughtfully, and then continued to ask.
”So... You're not optimistic about this technology?”
”I don't think it's bad, but I don't think it's time yet,” President Li Guoping sighed and continued. ”If you ask about the prospect of commercialization, I can tell you clearly that it's impossible to see results in ten or twenty years.”
”But if you ask me about the research prospect of this direction from the perspective of students, my view is optimistic. At least in the next ten years, this is likely to be a hot research direction.”
”Our school of soft engineering of Jiangcheng university is one of the best in the field of neural network in Xia and even in the world. No matter which technical route brain computer interface adopts in the end, we still have to build the whole neural network. ”
Hao Yun nodded and continued thoughtfully.
”If I want to know the research progress in this area... Do you have any good suggestions? For example, which professor or journal should I focus on? ”
”Ha ha, it's OK to pay attention to the research of any professor. I'll tell you. Do you understand? Come on, these things are too early for you! You'd better lay a solid foundation for your undergraduate knowledge. ” President Li Guoping laughed and continued, ”but if you are really interested, I have a suggestion.”
Hao Yun was embarrassed to laugh at Premier Li's teasing, but he continued to ask.
”What advice?”
”Just three days later, there will be a seminar on brain computer interface technology in our school. The level of the conference is not low, and the venue is in the auditorium of the main campus. At that time, I can get an invitation for you. If you are interested in this research, just go in and listen to it and ask more. I'm not an expert in this field. I can't help you much, but many professors in this seminar are top experts in this field. You can talk to them more. ”
After listening to these words, Hao Yun's face showed a joyful expression and quickly said thanks.
”Thank you, teacher!”
President Li Guoping waved his hand and said with a smile.
”You're welcome. It's not such a small thing!”
Although he didn't care, Hao Yun could clearly feel from the expression on the old professor's face that he liked his ”teacher” very much.
After thanking President Li, Hao Yun left the office happily.
Just as he was about to go back to his bedroom, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
He took out his cell phone and looked at it. The caller was Xuejie.
After pressing the connect button, Hao Yun put the phone to his ear.
”Hello?”
”You've gone back to school?”
”I've been back a long time... You have a cold?”
I don't know if it's his illusion. I always feel that the voice on the other end of the phone is a little nasal.
”Cold? No... I just got to school and haven't had dinner yet. Would you like to join me? ”
