RE: Research Group Internship

Can. If you are free this afternoon, come to my office for an interview, room 218 on the first floor of the material.

Wei Xingsi

Xu Qiu opened the course selection website and checked his class schedule.

Seeing that there was no class this afternoon, he quickly replied to the email.

RE: RE: Research Group Internship

OK Then I will come to your office around two o'clock in the afternoon.

I wish you success in your work and good health!

Xu Qiu

Xu Qiu closed the mailbox, switched back to the homepage of Mr. Wei's research group, and focused on viewing the research content and results.

The research content is in both Chinese and English, and there are many technical terms in it, but some of them have appeared in professional courses, so there are not too many obstacles to read with the help of You Pirates and Gu Gou translation.

…………

After the preparations were completed, Xu Qiu arrived at the first floor of the materials ten minutes earlier.

This is an old building that has been built for more than 20 years, and there are traces of time all over the building.

Teacher Wei's office is at the end of the corridor on the second floor.

Xu Qiu was walking in the slightly dim corridor, some of the lights above his head were still flickering, and there was a green safe passage sign hanging on the wall under his feet, and an unknown instrument came from his ear. The hum of operation.

Hey, it's weird, when will the school renovate the old building.

When room 218 arrived, Xu Qiu stopped.

The door of the office was flaring, and there was a faint light in the crack of the door.

Xu Qiu took a deep breath and knocked on the door slowly three times.

Come in!

A masculine male voice came from the door.

Xu Qiu pushed the door lightly and entered, looking around for a while.

In a room of more than 20 square meters, there are two desks, a bookcase, a sofa bed, a few chairs, and a fish tank that is cracking.

A middle-aged man was sitting at the desk facing the door, he must be Teacher Wei Xingsi.

Teacher Wei is about forty years old, with piercing eyes.

When he saw Xu Qiu come in, he stopped what he was doing, with a smile on his face.

Xu Qiu closed the door, stood still, and directly explained the purpose of coming:

Hello, Mr. Wei, I contacted you this morning, Xu Qiu, a third-year student in the Materials Department.

Teacher Wei smiled unabated, pointed to the chair next to him and said, Xu Qiu, sit first.

The two asked and answered.

What kind of professional?

material chemistry.

How about the grades, how many grade points?

Now it is 3.46, ranking third in the material chemistry major.

Oh, is that so? It's so powerful. Teacher Wei got up and took out two boxes of honey grapefruit tea from the refrigerator behind him while replying.

He opened one box himself, handed the other to Xu Qiu, and said:

It's starting to get hot in June, let's have a drink.

Thank you. Xu Qiu took it, it was cold, and after thinking about it, he still didn't open it to drink.

Teacher Wei didn't care, and continued:

I have just confirmed a postgraduate undergraduate student here recently, who is one year older than you and majored in materials chemistry, and his GPA seems to be similar to yours.

She is preparing for her graduation defense recently, and she doesn't come to the laboratory very often. You can meet me when you have the opportunity.

Teacher Wei paused for a moment, then suddenly said: Xu Qiu, are you interested in coming to my postgraduate study?

You should apply for postgraduate insurance. It is not a problem to apply based on your grades.

Xu Qiu scratched his head and replied, I'm sorry, Mr. Wei, I haven't thought about things that far.

That's okay. Wei Xingsi said:

Then you do it here first, find out how you feel, and you still have more than a year to think about it.

Yeah. Xu Qiu nodded.

Okay, you go to the 216 laboratory next door and call Chen Wanqing over.

He was about to get up when he heard Teacher Wei say, I'll take you there, follow me.

…………

The room types of 216 and 218 are similar.

Upon entering the door, there is a large desk for students to use for office work, and then there is a transparent glass wall as a partition. The other end of the glass wall is the laboratory, which is filled with various experimental equipment that Xu Qiu does not know.

Wei Xingsi introduced:

The space here is relatively small now, but we still have a large laboratory on the Zhangjiang New Campus, which is currently under construction.

Then, he pointed to the girl who was sitting at the desk operating the computer, and said:

This is my doctoral student, Chen Wanqing, Xu Qiu, you can follow her first.

Xu Qiu sized up Chen Wanqing. Although she was a doctorate senior, she looked like she was just in her early twenties.

Maybe a straight PhD student?

He took the initiative to say hello, Senior Chen Wanqing, hello.

Hello, junior. Chen Wanqing stood up and responded.

Teacher Wei patted Xu Qiu on the shoulder and said:

Okay, then you talk, I'll go back to the office first.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Xu Qiu found that Chen Wanqing felt a sense of relief after Teacher Wei left.

But after all, it was the first time we met, so it was not easy for him to ask directly.

The senior sister seemed rather aloof, she didn't speak, but looked at Xu Qiu curiously.

He had no choice but to take the initiative to speak and introduce himself again:

Hi sister, I'm Xu Qiu, a third-year student in the Materials Department. I want to come here for an internship, and I've already talked to Teacher Wei just now.

Okay, Chen Wanqing nodded slightly and said, Are you okay later?

It's okay, I don't have class this afternoon.

Okay, then let's go to the supplies department first.

…………

On the way, Xu Qiu checked the historical records of the system information.

[The task has been completed, get 100 points, permission level +1. 】

[The current permission level is level 1, and the proficiency system, auxiliary system and deduction system are enabled. 】

[Acquire novice mission II. Raise the proficiency rating of any experimental operation to level three or above, and reward 100 points for completing the task. 】

Seeing the three newly opened system functions, Xu Qiu was a little excited.

After turning on the auxiliary system, he can get real-time operation guidance when he is doing experiments, and he can also exchange points for higher-level guidance

Why worry that the experimental technology cannot be improved quickly.

When they arrived at the material department, Chen Wanqing reported her name, student number and Wei Xingsi's name, and signed the receipt.

Later, she got two lab coats of size 165 and 180, 5 bags of disposable PE gloves, 1 box of disposable syringes, and 100 magnetic stirring bars the size of rice grains.

Don't you need to pay for things here? Xu Qiu asked.

Our team here keeps accounts. It is settled on a monthly basis, and the funds for the project are paid directly. Chen Wanqing explained.

Is that so, senior sister is a direct Ph.D. student of our school's graduate school? Xu Qiu asked.

No, my master's degree is at East China University, and I took the exam from there.

Xu Qiu nodded, took the initiative to help Chen Wanqing pick up the supplies she had just received, and said, Senior sister looks young, she feels like she just graduated from a bachelor's degree.

Nope, Chen Wanqing covered her mouth with a chuckle and said, Xu Qiu, are you planning to study in this school for graduate school?

That's right, I just submitted an application for postgraduate insurance to the counselor a few days ago. Xu Qiu said.

The two became a lot acquainted, and chatted all the way back to the laboratory.

…………

The first lesson in getting started, safety education.

Chen Wanqing opened the PDF file of Laboratory Safety Education on the computer desktop and began to read.

First of all, you must wear a lab coat, disposable activated carbon filter mask, disposable PE gloves, and wash your hands before and after the experiment.

Secondly, you are not allowed to wear skirts or high heels, uh...sorry, Chen Wanqing said with a little embarrassment, I forgot that you are a boy, and there are more girls in our laboratory.

Hey, this is too long, you should read it yourself. Chen Wanqing pushed the laptop to Xu Qiu, and added:

The most important point is that there may be residues of toxic and harmful drugs in every corner of the laboratory, so you must protect yourself.

Xu Qiu nodded and took the computer.

There are many experimental courses in his undergraduate courses, including General Chemistry Experiment, Basic Physics Experiment, Analytical Chemistry Experiment and so on.

He is no stranger to laboratory safety education.

Moreover, we have heard about laboratory safety accidents that have occurred in recent years.

For example, a senior student in the chemistry department broke an arm due to improper operation when using a water heater.

A master student in the Department of Materials poured the experimental waste of lithium-ion batteries directly into the sewer, triggering a fire alarm.

A research group in the Department of Physics exploded due to improper storage of steel cylinders. At that time, it was like an earthquake, and the whole building was visibly shaken.

When a graduate student in the Polymer Department was doing a synthesis reaction, the reaction vessel caught fire. In desperation, he threw the reaction container out of the building directly through the window, but fortunately no casualties were caused.

So Xu Qiu summed up his own laboratory survival guide:

Life safety comes first, instrument safety comes second;

If the situation is not right, run away immediately.
