"How did I get from a college student to a doctorate in medicine?"

In September 2022, a video entitled "How I got from a specialist to Stanford" became popular on the Internet, causing the attention of netizens. In the video, a medical student reviewed him all the way from a college school, and after being promoted, he was admitted to the master's degree and doctor of the Capital Medical University.

01

College entrance examination enters a college

From self -violence to the top three in the school

My name is He Shihao. Born in 1995, my hometown was Heze, Shandong. In 2013, he graduated from high school to study in Shandong Medical College. At that time, there were no different from my classmates around me. Play happily, playing games, and then go out and walk.

When I was in high school, I was more likely to play, and my thoughts were used on playing games and reading extra -curricular books. The head teacher told me that don't affect others if you don't study well. Sit in the last row. At that time, my ranking was basically the number of people in the class. In high school, I have been abandoning myself, and I have not opened up.

My parents are all doctors, and my dad is a doctor in the infectious disease. In 2003, he was on the front line of resistance. During the Spring Festival, doctors needed duty. Many times there were only me at home, or me and my mother. At that time, I felt that the profession of a doctor was relatively great, so I still chose clinical medicine.

In the first year of the college, the incident changed.

There are 8 people in our dormitory, plus the next dormitory, often do more than a dozen people start black playing games and watch movies. One day, I was preparing for the 4th and 6th exams and drove the lamp to study. They played games and watched horror movies, saying that I opened the lamp to affect their atmosphere.

I usually see me sitting and studying, so I picked up my surgeon and threw it away, saying "What do you read so much." It was very unhappy at the time.

During the first final exam, I actually took the top 10 in the class, and there were 102 in our class. I didn't think I had paid a lot of effort at that time, and the test results were actually good.

These two things made me feel that I was a little different from the future planning of the people around me, so I was determined to study hard. Since then, the exam has been ranked in the top three in the school.

02

There is only one chance to upgrade

I was admitted to a medical school with only 100 students

Our dormitory was disconnected at night and could not turn on the lights. The only thing I could learn is the men's toilet. There is a long bright light on the water heater next to the toilet. Without a table, I buckled the washbasin as the table. I read the internal medicine, surgery, and English level four or six to prepare for the college.

Many people went to the toilet in the evening and saw that I was holding a washbasin alone. At first everyone felt that my mind was wrong. But then they were used to it. I was not there at night, and they were still scared.

I learned four or five in the toilet at night, so they gave me the nickname "He five o'clock". Until now, the signature of my video platform is "either sleeping at five or at five o'clock." Of course, I do n’t encourage everyone to learn like me. It is better to learn hard during the day. I have no way.

At that time, there was only one chance to be promoted to this exam. Shandong Medical College has a relatively small number. For example, Taishan Medical College recruits 100 students, Binzhou Medical College recruits 150 students. Jining Medical College may recruit 300 students, but there are a total of 7,000 or eight thousand people registered. Many students are worried that they will not get the top 100 in the province, and they will not report to Taishan Medical College. I have confidence in myself, and I passed the admission after signing up. In 2018, he completed his studies.

I am now a neurosurgeon student. Undergraduate clinical internship contacts neurosurgery, and I saw the first page of "Neurosome" edited by Academician Zhao Jizong.

I remember that Academician Zhao mentioned that although brain disease accounts for only 1.5%of the total human disease, its total burden is as high as 23%, especially the pathogenesis of brain diseases is unclear. Later clinical internships found that neurosurgery not only requires clinical detailed observation, keen thinking, and teamwork, but also high -precision technology. Under the influence of these factors, I chose neurosurgery as the direction of the postgraduate entrance examination and decided to apply for the best school in China -Capital Medical University.

03

Graduate entrance examination has a lot of support

The relationship between father and son that used to be ice improved

During the postgraduate entrance examination, the people around him did not give much support. I remember very clearly that when eating with my roommate, he had only one topic, that is, persuading me to give up. He said, "Xiao He, you can get a graduate student. It is good. We may be able to take the graduate student in two or three people. Do you still want to take the Capital Medical University?"

Of course, I also got a lot of support.

The first support is from Capital Medical University. When filling in the postgraduate entrance examination volunteer, I found that some enrollment seals clearly write about clinical medical students who do not receive the first academic qualifications. In those days, I used two mobile phone numbers to call the Capital Medical University research and recruitment office to determine whether I was qualified to sign up. The teacher of the research and recruitment office affirmed that I was qualified to apply for the exam. At the moment I was confirmed, I thanked the first doctor. As the number one school in Asia in neurosurgery, I could give me such an opportunity.

The second support comes from my dad. What he left to me has always been a serious and traditional father's image, and we have a more ice relationship. But the postgraduate entrance examination is his most supported me. At the end of the postgraduate test, I felt that I couldn't get the test, so I didn't buy a train ticket to Beijing. Unexpectedly, I passed the re -examination line, and Tiantan Hospital asked me to participate in the interview. At that time, I was still internship, and I didn't ask for leave. I didn't know what to do. My dad didn't say a word, asked to take me to Beijing for the annual leave, and opened it all the way for more than ten hours.

During the year of preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, I stayed up all night and slept at 3 am. Staying up late has caused my liver function to be poor. Examination found that more than 200 transaminase should not exceed 40.

In the morning, my dad took me to eat soy milk fritters. I couldn't see something greasy and couldn't eat it. At noon, my dad took me to eat meat stuffed. I was hungry, uncomfortable, and wanted to eat. But as soon as I finished eating, I went to vomit on the tree. My dad came over to help me shoot back. He didn't dare to ask me what to eat that night, so he bought me some yogurt and oranges. He usually loves smoking, and he doesn't sucked at that time, afraid that I can't sleep.

Later, my mother told me that my dad said somehow to say her. My dad said, "Don't criticize your children's learning if it is not good, it is not easy. If you ca n’t get it, do n’t criticize him and make some delicious food at home."

Crying after the postgraduate entrance examination

Professor "Hero does not ask the source" to admit me

During the postgraduate interview, I think my biggest advantage lies in English, so all my questions were prepared in English at that time.

I was very impressed. When I introduced myself, I might be more authentic. The experts and professors who originally bowed their heads looked up at me. When listening to English, Chinese translation is required. I also summarized in English not only in Chinese translation. The professor later asked me to meningoma. I did not say "meningoma" in Chinese, but in English "Meningeoma".

After the interview came out, a girl who was waiting in line to enter the examination room told me that my face was pale, and I didn't even have a bloody lip. Ask me, "Classmate, are you okay?"

When the interview announced the admission results, my heartbeat was great. When I read a dozen people, I would like to be sure that I couldn't get it. I was over and I couldn't get it. But then I heard: "He Shihao, Congratulations to He Shihao, you have been accepted by Professor Wang Yan!"

I cried all of a sudden. The classmates next to me also touched me with their elbows and handed me a paper towel.

My master's mentor Professor Wang Yan is a well -known cerebral vascular expert, and my brothers are from top schools such as the first medicine and Peking University. Professor Wang Yan admitted to me, "Hero does not ask the source". In recent years, I agree with me, and even let me lead me to lead scientific research projects. It can be said that Professor Wang Yan is my greatest benefactor. Similarly, I am also very grateful to Professor Zhao Yuanli, a doctoral supervisor, not only giving me the opportunity to continue to study doctors, but he also supports the doctoral research topics I chose and let me continue to study smoke disease.

Not only do you know that many medical students do not know, but even many grass -roots hospital doctors do not know. In layman's speaking, smoke disease is due to the narrow or occlusion of the cerebral blood vessels, and the newborn blood vessels generated are like smoke on radiography, so it is named Moyamoya Disease. However, its incidence in Asian countries such as China is relatively high, which may lead to cerebral infarction or cerebral hemorrhage, or even life -threatening for children and middle -aged and middle -aged. At present, no clear pathogenic genes are found in smoke disease, and many clinical treatment cannot be cured.

I and the five younger brothers and I formed a young, enthusiastic, enthusiastic, and dedicated to exploring the pathogenesis of smoke disease. I was proud of them. They also trusted me and supported me. The opening group will discuss new experiments and find that collision academic sparks.

Go to Stanford University to exchange

Delivery becomes the next generation of top neurosurgery experts

In 2021, I continued to stay at the Tiantan Hospital of Capital Medical University. I did not go home during the summer vacation.

He Shihao was at the free clinic.

At the same time, my research encountered a bottleneck and wanted to communicate abroad. I applied for a number of schools. However, because of the busy clinic, I missed the invitation of the interview from Stanford University. When I found out, the interview had timeout, and I could only return to the email immediately to explain the situation.

The good news is that the professor of Stanford University replied to me: "I am glad to hear that you go to the mountain area for free consultation, I am willing to give you another chance." I seized this opportunity and was preparing on the plane back to Beijing. Participated in the interview. Experts from Stanford University agreed that I published an article before, thinking that my academic background was eligible to join them, and I passed the interview smoothly.

At that time, I had received an invitation to the "Global First Hospital" Meo Medical Center. But I want to follow Professor Gary K. Steinberg. He is the founder and director of the Smoke Disease Center of the Stanford University Stroke Association. His research on smoke disease should be the deepest in the world.

When I got the invitation letter from Stanford, due to the preparations for several consecutive nights, I was having a fever at the time, and my students went to the first medical opening ceremony. My joy was unattended and suddenly doubted my past efforts. For ten years, the hard -intensity learning every day, the efforts to work along the way are it really worth it? But when I opened the official website of Stanford neurology and saw "Training the Next Leaders in Neurosurgery", that is, "cultivating the leaders of the next generation of neurosurgery", all my pain, fever, headache, and loneliness have passed. If I set my goal as a neurosurgery leader, then my dedication in the past ten years is nothing. Suddenly, I found the direction of life. Invitation letter from Stanford University.

In August 2022, I came to San Francisco. After joining Stanford Neurosurgery, I found that many professional terms have not been heard. Although the door to the new world has been opened, there are still a lot of learning. This month, I came to the laboratory every day and returned to the dormitory at 12 o'clock in the evening. Two smoke disease projects have been completed recently, and two smoke disease projects have started. I am lucky to be able to study in Stanford. I hope I can break through my bottlenecks here and make new progress in the research of the pathogenesis of smoke disease with the team, and return to my country to contribute to the medical care of China as soon as possible.

In the end, what I want to say is that people around you may wear colored glasses to look at the first degree as a college. I also paid 200%of the efforts to seize the hard -won opportunity.

Paying attention to the first degree, this is everyone's respect for the hard work of the college entrance examination. When looking for a job, I may also be limited by the first degree. In this regard, my idea is to make every effort to become one of the best in this field. This is also my suggestion of the first degree of the first degree, find a direction you are interested in, remember your love and regret, and make efforts you should do. It is not too late at any time. Now it is your only starting point.

Teacher and classmate appreciate and plus

Prove yourself with strength

Shandong Medical Higher College issued a document on September 10, "He Shihao is a 2013 graduate of the Department of Clinical Medicine of our school. He was from Heze, Shandong. ) The clinical medicine major continued to be studied, and was later admitted to the Capital Medical University to study for graduate students and doctoral students. Currently visiting Stanford in Stanford in the United States, mainly engaged in the basic research of the pathogenesis and cognitive obstacles of smoke disease. "

He Shihao's counselor Wang Bo recalled that He Shihao usually loves English and scored 522 points in the first English level 4 test. He has obtained outstanding school -level students for three consecutive years in 2014, 2015, and 2016, and has won scholarships for three consecutive years. Feng Xinsheng, deputy secretary of the Party Branch of the Department of Clinical Medicine, said that He Shihao had a strong self -discipline consciousness during his school during school, and was able to reasonably allocate the study time, and finally passed the Taishan Medical College with excellent results.

Xiaojun (a pseudonym) of the master's degree (pseudonym) of a master's degree (pseudonym) of He Shihao at a research group at the Capital Medical University told reporters that he often heard from Teacher Wang Yan's mouth that "Shihao is too good, you have to learn from him", "Our project group is fortunate With Xiao He, we brought our scientific research. "

Xiaojun said that the first medical altar hospital can be said to be the temple in the minds of each neurosurgeon. Correspondingly, the difficulty of the postgraduate entrance examination can be imagined. "Brother Shihao has been promoted to the book, and many graduate students in schools have clearly did not accept college students. I can't imagine how difficult he will face during the postgraduate entrance examination."

Xiao Jun introduced that He Shihao worked very hard and often went to bed for scientific research. "He will also take us forward, will give each of us the opportunity to study independently, will help us analyze and solve problems at critical times, and help us share stress, cover the wind and rain when we encounter difficulties. "

What impressed Xiaojun most was that when he first designed experiments, he was under great pressure. If he doesn't understand, he will ask He Shihao. Sometimes at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, He Shihao will return in seconds.

When the logic of the entire experiment is about to be completed, the small army suddenly found a large loophole in the experimental design. "At that time, my mentality was almost collapsed. The work that worked for so long may have been abandoned before, and my mood was very low." He told He Shihao that he tried his best and felt that he might not work. He Shihao helped him analyze the problem and gave him a few references. "After the analysis, I found that the big loophole I think is just a small problem. It is my unconfident enlarged this problem. Adjusting, this problem will be solved."

Xiaojun also said that at the beginning, everyone may be concerned about He Shihao's specialization of the original background, but He Shihao's character, action and strength proved that he could also be excellent, and also won everyone's respect and admiration.
