Doctors are frequently depicted as important protagonists in science fiction, including in the science fiction franchise Star Trek. This paper will profile Drs. Philip Boyce and Mark Piper from the first two Star Trek pilot episodes. These doctors are interdisciplinarians with a variety of skills that permit them to cope with exotic maladies and biological afflictions of all kinds. However, they are also humanists who befriend their captains and act as psychological counselors whenever needed. Despite their brief appearances in only one episode each, this trope is later carried over to all of their other medical successors in the Star Trek timeline, as will be shown in the rest of the papers in this collection.
医生经常在科幻小说中被描绘为重要的主角，包括在科幻小说系列《星际迷航》中。本文将介绍前两集《星际迷航》试播集中的菲利普·博伊斯博士和马克·派珀博士。这些医生是跨学科的，拥有各种技能，使他们能够应对各种奇异的疾病和生物疾病。然而，他们也是人道主义者，与他们的船长交朋友，并在需要时充当心理辅导员。尽管他们在每一集只出现了简短的一幕，但这一角色后来在《星际迷航》时间线上的所有其他医疗后继者中都有所体现，本系列论文的其余部分将对此进行展示。
