Chapter 617: The Final Showdown

After Lu Chen exchanged the "Statistics" advanced skill card, he studied statistics in the shortest possible time.

A large amount of statistical theory knowledge poured into his head.

The originally obscure theory became easy to understand with the help of the advanced skill card.

The experimental data of various clinical research sub-centers have been gathered in Jinghua Second Hospital recently.

…

Lu Chen's exclusive research office is brightly lit every day.

In order to catch up with the time schedule, Lu Chen and others took turns to work all night to analyze the experimental data.

The workload this time is different from the past.

Instead, all the sample volumes of the entire clinical laboratory are gathered together.

All clinical research sub-centers have a total of more than 10,000 samples.

Everyone in the research team is working overtime.

…

In a blink of an eye.

A month has passed.

This is the third night that Lu Chen has worked all night.

For three consecutive days, he just took a short nap in the office every day.

With his unremitting efforts, he finally completed the statistical analysis of the last more than 10,000 samples.

This time, all the statistical methods used were based on Professor Su Yaling's advanced statistical theory.

"Huh... finally done."

Lu Chen looked tired, his eyes were bloodshot, but he was very excited.

The two-year clinical research experiment finally had preliminary results today.

Next, as long as the experimental data was reviewed and the paper was written, the entire experimental research would be completed.

However, after Lu Chen relaxed, he was overwhelmed with sleepiness.

Lu Chen didn't know how he got back to the dormitory.

In a trance, he only remembered that he went back to the dormitory and fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already dark outside the dormitory.

...

"Have I slept all day?"

Lu Chen rubbed his sleepy eyes, and the rumbling sound from his stomach made him decide to get up and look for food.

No one else was in the dormitory.

It was the critical time for graduation, and everyone was busy with graduation thesis, and basically studied in the library until late before going home.

"Let's have a bowl of instant noodles."

Lu Chen had stocked up some instant noodles before, and when he opened the cabinet, he found that they were all made of old pickled cabbage.

There was no choice but to give up the idea of ​​eating instant noodles and go out to find food.

At this time, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

The hospital cafeteria had long been closed.

Lu Chen had no choice but to go to a small restaurant near the hospital, ordered a meat dish and a vegetable dish, and ate leisurely.

While eating, he took the opportunity to check the latest cutting-edge information in the scientific research circle.

A sudden message made Lu Chen suddenly nervous.

"AstraZeneca's European and American branches recently stated that the clinical research experiment on dapagliflozin is nearing completion. It is reported that the research results this time are likely to change the current clinical status of heart failure treatment..."

AstraZeneca's European branch's research speed is not slow!

Lu Chen's eating speed has increased a bit.

He quickly finished the meal, and before leaving, he packed a few meals.

Lu Chen did not return to the dormitory, but came to the scientific research office with the meal in his hand.

...

At this time, everyone in the office was at their post.

"Senior sister Ke Yue, some of the data in Kyoto are inaccurate. Please check it."

"Okay, I'll check it right away."

When Lu Chen was not there, Ke Yue was the leader of the entire experimental team, managing all experimental analysis projects.

"In addition, Lu Chen's statistical analysis results have been released. What everyone needs to do now is to find mismatched data or abnormal data..."

"This experiment is extraordinary, and there must be no mistakes."

Lu Chen walked into the office quietly.

Everyone was concentrating, and no one even noticed his arrival.

Until Lu Chen put the packed food on Ke Yue's table.

"Lu Chen, why are you here?"

Ke Yue looked up and saw that it was Lu Chen. Her face was happy, and then she frowned and said, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Lu Chen stayed up all night for several consecutive nights, and everyone admired and felt sorry for him.

"I slept well."

Ke Yue said, "Rest a little longer, we are here."

"I can't sleep." Lu Chen sent the news he just saw to Ke Yue.

After seeing it, Ke Yue looked a little nervous.

"Are they almost done?"

"Yes, so we can't relax, let's work harder together!"

Some members of the research team haven't had dinner yet, so Lu Chen ordered a few more KFC and milk tea.

In the office, there were only the voices of members discussing with each other.

Everyone had a look of fatigue on their faces, but they couldn't hide their longing for the future.

...

Eleven o'clock in the evening.

It was late at night.

Under Lu Chen's urging, the members of the research team reluctantly left the office.

In the office, only two of Lu Chen's junior brothers and sisters were left.

As Li Yao's master's student, Lin Qingping also successfully became a member of Lu Chen's research team.

She joined the research team with her classmate Fang Hao.

At that time, the two of them were among the top in the postgraduate reexamination, but they gave up other mentors with greater academic influence and chose Li Yao instead.

"Junior sister Lin, you should go back early too."

Lu Chen walked up to Lin Qingping.

Lin Qingping is still busy sorting out some experimental data.

"Senior brother, I'm close, I'm leaving right now!"

Lin Qingping's hair was a little disheveled and she wore thick glasses. She didn't have her usual delicate and cute look at all.

"Okay." Lu Chen nodded slightly. He looked at Lin Qingping's data and saw that there wasn't much left.

He turned to look at Fang Hao, "Junior brother, it's so dark outside, I'll have to trouble you to send my junior sister back later."

"Okay senior brother."

Fang Hao scratched his head and smiled shyly.

"Well, then I'm relieved."

Lu Chen didn't wait any longer, packed up his things and left.

Half an hour later.

Lin Qingping finally completed her data compilation.

"Huh... great, it's finally done."

She looked at her experimental data with satisfaction, then turned back to Fang Hao and said, "Let's go back."

"Yeah." Fang Hao nodded.

Lin Qingping went to the bathroom and tidied herself up a little.

She closed the office door and left with Fang Hao.

…

It was late at night, and there were very few pedestrians on the hospital's paths.

Lin Qingping and Fang Hao walked side by side.

"Lin Qingping, do you think we can succeed in the end if we work so hard?" Fang Hao suddenly said.

"I, I don't know either." Lin Qingping was slightly stunned.

She recalled her scientific research life for more than a year with a lot of emotions.

Graduate students of the same class had already joined Lu Chen's research team when others could only do electrocardiograms in clinical settings.

Start experimenting with clinical research.

The road is tough, but rewarding.

Before their peers knew what scientific research was, they had already published several SCI papers.

Thinking of this, Lin Qingping smiled in relief, "As long as we work hard and learn and progress with Senior Brother Lu Chen, it will actually be considered a success."

Fang Hao nodded slightly, "That's right, you won't lose money anyway."

The two looked at each other and smiled before parting in front of their respective dormitories.

…

Lin Qingping returned to the dormitory.

No one else in the dormitory was sleeping.

Some people are watching dramas, some are spraying pesticides, and some are talking on the phone with their boyfriends.

"Qingping, you're finally back!" A fat-faced girl said immediately, "It's so late, we were just about to call you."

Lin Qingping put down her backpack and smiled, "The progress of the experiment has been tight recently, so I came back late."

"What experiments are you doing?" the fat-faced girl asked curiously.

"Well..." Lin Qingping said embarrassedly, "Regarding clinical cardiovascular drugs, the specific content cannot be said yet."

"Oh." The fat-faced girl nodded enviously, "I haven't seen what the experiment looks like."

"What's there to be envious of?!"

A girl who was playing games whispered, "When a paper is published, it is not a first or second paper. If you publish this kind of paper, others will not recognize it at all."

"That's right." Another girl who was applying a facial mask said, "No matter how many papers you publish as the fourth or fifth author, it's useless! Qingping, I think you might as well have a good rest and publish another paper in the future. Once you write the Hua Xia core thesis, you will be able to graduate.”

Seeing everyone saying this, Lin Qingping didn't pay attention. After a few words, she started to wash up.

Seeing Lin Qingping enter the bathroom, other people in the dormitory began to complain softly.

"Lin Qingping is still too naive. Her senior brother Lu Chen is very powerful, but he has nothing to do with her!"

"Yes, treat Lin Qingping as a free labor force!"

"We are just in our second year of graduate school, so there is no need to be in such a hurry to do experiments. It will take a long time to graduate."

"You see, she comes back so late every day and makes herself disgraced. Why bother?"

"..."

When Lin Qingping came out of the bathroom, everyone shut their mouths.

She sighed slightly inwardly.

The bathroom was not soundproof, so the content of their conversation reached her ears word for word.

If everyone was just giving advice, then Lin Qingping wouldn't say much.

But there was a sour taste in everyone's words.

"Thank you for your concern." Lin Qingping looked around at everyone and said slowly, "But I think I did a good job in the laboratory."

When everyone heard this, no one said a word and continued to play games, apply facial masks, and watch TV shows.

Lin Qingping finished washing, lay on the bed, put on headphones, and blocked out the surrounding sounds.

She tried to make herself fall asleep quickly, and she would continue the clinical experiment tomorrow.

…

the following period.

Everyone in Lu Chen's research team wanted to split the twenty-four hours a day into two halves.

Lin Qingping went back to her dormitory later and later.

Sometimes when I come back at night, my roommates have even gone to bed.

She washes herself carefully and quietly every day.

However, two roommates still complained that Lin Qingping disturbed them.

"Junior sister, why don't you come and stay in our dormitory." Ke Yue found out about this incident and took the initiative to find Lin Qingping, "There is still an empty seat in our dormitory, and my roommates are all in the third year of graduate school, so they come back late every day. "

"good."

Lin Qingping was not shy. She could learn more if she could live in the same dormitory as Senior Sister Ke Yue.

Lu Chen also came forward to coordinate with the Graduate School and immediately transferred Lin Qingping to Ke Yue's dormitory.

Among Lin Qingping's original roommates, only the fat-faced girl tried to keep her, and the others didn't say anything.

She naturally had no regrets and moved to Ke Yue's dormitory that day.

…

A week passed in a flash.

After the collective efforts of the research team, the experimental data part of the entire national natural experiment has been completed!

The rest is the paper writing part.

In order to save time, Lu Chen divided the entire research team into several groups.

Each group is responsible for different parts of the paper, and finally, he will make the final review and revision.

Paper writing is equally important.

Lu Chen dared not be careless at all. He also kept asking his mentor Li Yao, and occasionally asked Qin Sifeng, a teacher in Kyoto.

…

"Lu Chen, I heard that the experiment of AstraZeneca's European branch has been completed!"

On this day, Lu Chen suddenly got some bad news from Wang Ruoxi.

AstraZeneca has sufficient personnel, and the speed of paper writing must be very fast.

"How long will it take for you to finish your paper?"

Lu Chen looked at the paper on the computer and said in a deep voice: "At least one week."

"As soon as possible." Wang Ruoxi reminded, "Send it to me as soon as the paper is completed, and we will arrange for the journal to review it as soon as possible!"

"Understood!"

Lu Chen knew that at this time, the scientific research competition between them and AstraZeneca's European branch had reached a fierce point where every second counted.

Mentor Li Yao personally came forward and asked for leave for everyone in the research team.

...

A week later.

Lu Chen finally completed the final revision of the paper and sent the final version of the paper to Wang Ruoxi.

At the same time, he also learned that AstraZeneca's European branch had also completed the writing of the paper.

The completion time of both parties was basically the same!

"Lu Chen, come out for a while, I have news to tell you."

Wang Ruoxi asked Lu Chen out again.

This time, it was still the cafe next to the hospital.

"The headquarters knows about the scientific research competition between our two branches."

Wang Ruoxi picked up a cup of coffee, took a sip, and said slowly.

"It just so happens that the time it takes for our two branches to complete their papers is basically the same."

Lu Chen nodded slightly. When he heard the news, he was also a little stunned.

"What is your headquarters going to do?"

Lu Chen knew that Wang Ruoxi would not ask him out for no reason.

"The headquarters wants our two branches to send their papers to "Journal of Cardiology" and let the editorial department of "Journal of Cardiology" conduct a direct comparison and review, and publish one of the two."

Lu Chen was slightly stunned, "Journal of Cardiology?"

This year, the impact factor of "Journal of Cardiology" has reached 30!

This is the top journal in the global cardiovascular field, and it is known as the three giants in the cardiovascular field together with "Journal of Cardiology" and "EHJ"!

Lu Chen originally planned to submit his paper to the slightly lower-level "Journal of Cardiology", with an impact factor of about 20.

This is already one of the top journals.

But compared with "Journal of Cardiology", "Journal of Cardiology" is a whole level lower.

"How is it? Are you confident?" Wang Ruoxi stared at Lu Chen closely.

Lu Chen shook his head slightly, "To be honest, I don't have much confidence."

Those who work in cardiovascular science only know the difficulty of the top journal "Journal of Cardiology". UU Reading www. uukanshu.net

"There is no other way now, we can only bite the bullet!" Wang Ruoxi said slowly.

"In fact, the European branch is not prepared for this. We learned that they originally planned to publish the paper to an SCI journal with a score of about 17."

"This time the headquarters asked us to publish the paper to ", which is also a good opportunity for us!"

Lu Chen immediately understood what Wang Ruoxi meant.

There must be connections at the AstraZeneca headquarters.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for both parties to reach the level of "" in this clinical research experiment.

"In this case, we have no choice but to fight!"

"I agree to submit the paper to "!"

Lu Chen's eyes also ignited a raging fighting spirit, welcoming this final showdown.
