Everyone here naturally understands what Wu Hao said, and everyone's expressions are a bit unsightly. However, what Wu Hao said is also true. The cost of treatment in hospitals is indeed very high now. In the face of some major diseases, even with ordinary medical insurance
, the patient’s family will also be given a layer of skin.
Moreover, very expensive medical equipment and equipment that are beyond the scope of conventional medical products are not covered by medical insurance, so patients will have to bear a large cost.
Of course, Wu Hao stopped talking and didn't dwell too much on this matter. He just expressed his attitude.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Lao smiled and eased the atmosphere: "Xiao Wu, since your brain-computer interaction system is interconnected, can it be used in other medical fields?"
Hearing Cheng Lao's words, Wu Hao looked at him, then looked at everyone and nodded: "Yes, this technology has a very wide range of application directions. From the perspective of medical technology alone, it can also be used in some brain and neurological diseases."
Systemic disease treatment.
Among them, it has a very significant effect on some cerebral palsy patients, mentally retarded patients, and some of what we call vegetative people in medicine."
Vegetative state? After hearing this, the experts present couldn't help but become interested.
You must know that medical treatment methods for vegetative people have always been lacking. The main method currently used is to maintain the normal physiological signs of the vegetative person's body, and then add some external stimulation to help the vegetative person wake up. However, this method is not effective.
It is very slow, and it can be said that it all depends on luck. Some vegetative people may wake up in a few weeks or months, while some vegetative people sleep for several years, more than ten years, or even stay asleep forever.
Because of this, families of vegetative patients often bear tremendous psychological and financial pressure. In the end, many families have to choose to give up. Domestic laws and regulations do not allow euthanasia, so the family members often handle it themselves. As for the treatment method
, only the family members and the vegetative patient know this, and it is a tragedy anyway.
But now based on Wu Hao's words, they seemed to have mastered a new method of treating and awakening vegetative patients, which made everyone pay no attention.
Facing the gaze of everyone, Wu Hao smiled and nodded and admitted: "Yes, use the brain-computer interaction system to awaken the vegetative person. This method is to connect the vegetative person's brain through the brain-computer interaction system, and then continuously through this
The system transmits relevant bioelectrical signal contents to the brain. These contents can be visual images, auditory sounds, or even smell, taste, skin touch, etc.
Directly stimulating the patient's brain through single or multiple bioelectrical signals is much more direct than through the patient's own sensory organs. In this way, the probability of awakening a vegetative patient can be greatly increased.
Of course, this technology is still in the research and demonstration stage. The specific efficacy is not yet clear. But for the treatment of patients who have awakened from a vegetative state, this is indeed a new direction.
I will continue to explore this technology and strive to enter clinical trials as soon as possible."
After Wu Hao finished speaking, a brain expert present at the table said: "Mr. Wu, the brain department of our hospital is considered to be at the forefront in the country. We hope to cooperate comprehensively with you in the treatment and awakening of vegetative patients.
, promote this technology to carry out clinical trials as soon as possible.”
After the expert finished speaking, another expert hurriedly followed up: "Mr. Wu, our hospital also has the conditions for clinical trials in this area. We warmly welcome your company to set up the clinical trial site of this technology in our hospital. We
We will cooperate fully.”
Mr. Wu...
Everyone knew what this technology meant in the brain science academic circle, so everyone began to compete. For them, if they can compete for the qualifications for joint research and clinical trials, then this means that their future
It will become No. 1 in the field of treatment of vegetative patients in brain science in China and even internationally. This will not only bring huge reputation, but also bring huge practical benefits. This is why these people are competing so fiercely.
Upon seeing this, Wu Hao did not rush to agree, but waited for these people to fight for a while, then smiled and pressed his hands and said: "I appreciate everyone's kindness, but this matter is more complicated. If you are interested,
, we can come down and talk, so I won’t waste everyone’s time here.”
After hearing Wu Hao's words, everyone who was fighting calmed down. Others also took the opportunity to persuade a few words, and then everyone changed the topic elsewhere.
Xiao Wu, I heard that in addition to your bionic artificial organ project, you are also doing research on stem cell cloning and 3D bio-printed organ technology. How is the progress? Can you introduce to us the progress and results in this area?
Professor Zheng asked.
Cheng Lao also nodded and looked at Wu Hao and asked: "Stem cell cloning organ culture and 3D bio-printed organ technology are currently the most cutting-edge research fields in the medical field. Major pharmaceutical giants and biomedical research institutes in various countries are engaged in research in this area.
These two technologies have also become the core technologies of future medicine. They will play a vital role in future medicine. Some scientists even predict that these two technologies can double human lifespan. Although this statement
Exaggerated, but not impossible to achieve.
It’s just that the technology is too difficult and involves a series of legal and ethical issues, so the progress is very slow.”
Wu Hao nodded and said: "Yes, these two technologies are indeed challenging the restricted area of life. We artificially create living organs by ourselves. It can be said that this is robbing the Creator's job.
No matter which technology it is, it is extremely difficult, and the issues involved are not only in the field of biomedicine, but also a series of legal, ethical, and social public opinion issues.
Therefore, we have been very cautious in our research work in this area to ensure that every step we take is solid and stable."
Having said this, Wu Hao paused, and then said to everyone: "We have indeed made some progress in these two technologies, but we are still far from success."
Seeing that Wu Hao wanted to have a laugh, Chenglao was a little dissatisfied and said: "Tell me more, today is an academic exchange, if it involves core technology, you can ignore it."
After hearing what Cheng Lao said, everyone nodded in agreement.
When Wu Hao saw this, he showed a somewhat helpless expression and said: "Okay, then I will briefly talk about it. However, we have not achieved much in these two technologies. I will mainly explain our ideas here.
, let’s talk less about technical aspects.”
Seeing everyone nodding, Wu Hao continued to speak.
