--漫談Science, passion and faith
在這里,有同仁剛開始科學研究的工作,有同仁已經在科學研究的道路上經歷了無數(shù)個春春秋秋??茖W是什么?我們?yōu)楹我隹茖W研究工作?大家日日夜夜奮斗在實驗室,一次又一次地失敗,失望,甚至有人絕望。但是還是有人在失望之后繼續(xù)堅持,繼續(xù)經歷未知的下一次失望。為什么要堅持呢?有人說興趣讓他堅持過來了,有人說咬咬牙就能看到結果,因為他相信他總有發(fā)現(xiàn),有人會說.....
你說科學是什么呢?你為何會堅持做科學研究呢?
大家都會有自己的體會吧!不妨一起來聊聊!本月我們邀請到許曉鴻老師一起來與我們聊聊科研路上的滴滴點點。
本期主題:
Science is generally thought to be serious endeavor with little emotion involved . Yet in my experience, you don't last long on the bumpy road of science without strong passion or faith in your pursuit. Why do we do science? Why do we punish ourselves with long hours on the bench and repeated failures? I believe that as humans we are innately driven to make sense of the world around of us. Thus lie in our brain the primitive drive to find the answers to the unknown. We scientists, just like everyone else, observe first and then try to make sense of what we see. What differs us from lay people is that we believe answers to the unknown are logic, can be discovered and tested with careful designed experiments. Through the process of elimination, with each failure we are also one step closer to the truth. Technical skills may greatly facilitate our pursuit, but in the end it is the strong faith in the existence of logic and definite answers to our questions that serves as the internal compass that guides us through the road to discovery.
