Cheats Still Depend on Luck? A Tiny Petri Dish Carries Professor Li's Vast Magnanimity!

After Bingzhi finished his report, Li Qiwei asked him to show him around the laboratory.

"Professor, should I notify everyone?"

"Everyone should be doing experiments at this hour."

Li Qiwei waved a hand.

"Don't make a big fuss."

"I just want to see what everyone is really like when they're doing research."

"Just pretend I'm not here."

Bingzhi understood at once and made no special arrangements.

At that moment, Li Youyou said, "Dad, I won't accompany you, then. My bacterial culture experiment is almost done."

Li Qiwei smiled. "Go on."

Then he headed toward the laboratory with Bingzhi.

Like physics, biology was a vast system of study with many branches.

But in this era, biology was nowhere near as intricate and complex as it would become in later generations.

According to their different objects of study, biology was mainly divided into three categories: botany, zoology, and microbiology.

Bingzhi's specialty, for instance, was zoology.

He had conducted some research in fields such as entomology, anatomy, vertebrate morphology, and paleozoology.

But as physics and chemistry advanced and technological methods became ever more sophisticated, microbiology had gradually begun to become mainstream.

The reason was simple.

Cells were the foundation of life. The deeper one studied them, the more thoroughly one understood life itself.

And when it came to studying cells, microbiology was naturally better suited to the task.

Not only were the materials easy to prepare, but the procedures were simple as well. With nothing more than a microscope and Petri dishes, one could conduct research for an entire day.

The now-popular fields of proteins, DNA, and the like were all pursued by extracting substances from bacterial cells and similar materials.

Thus, the microbiology research groups at the Biological Research Institute occupied a full two floors, making it the institute's mainstream field.
