Wednesday morning at six o'clock, Zhaxi appeared as usual in the institute's library. It was the third day of the second phase of learning assigned by Yang Ping, and he was studying a paper on guidelines for treating infectious aneurysms. On the table was an open notebook, with a diagram of aneurysm pathological classification on the left, and the course and withdrawal indicators of antibiotic treatment on the right, densely detailed, like a net being woven.
He had gradually grasped the learning method Yang Ping mentioned, not rote memorization, but framework building. Whenever he read a paper, he would draw a mind map in his notebook, attaching new knowledge points to the existing framework. Clostridium difficile infection is the trunk, infectious aneurysm is the branch, intracranial aneurysm is the larger canopy... inflammation, infection, vascular wall repair mechanisms, host versus pathogen competition... He was learning to discern these roots.
