Chapter 579: Exit Crisis

Remember [New] in one second!      Lu Chen's expression was extremely solemn.

When he saw the paper published by AstraZeneca, he felt a huge pressure!

AstraZeneca had not made any moves before, and everyone was just afraid of its past terrifying strength.

But now that he has made a move and is facing this giant company, Lu Chen even wants to give up.

AstraZeneca's three papers have many highlights in terms of conception, innovation, experimental steps, and statistical methods.

Lu Chen once published a five-point SCI paper, which is inferior to these three papers!

Intracardiac Zone 3, doctor's office.

"It's too difficult!"

Director Wan Jingshui and Fang Ruzhang sat opposite each other, and both of them showed deep helplessness in their eyes.

"I was still optimistic before." Wan Jingshui sighed, "AstraZeneca has so many projects. If he didn't pay too much attention to the drug dapagliflozin, maybe we could have a way out! But now..."

The impact factors of these papers may not be the highest, but AstraZeneca's experiments have not been fully carried out. Only the three early papers can be used as the final papers of many other national natural science projects.

Once AstraZeneca completes the final experiment, it will definitely change the clinical guidelines!

"Director, it seems that we still underestimated AstraZeneca!" Fang Ruzhang shook his head helplessly, "Next, what should we do with Lu Chen's national natural science project?"

Since Lu Chen has been promised to participate, he must go through it to the end.

What Fang Ruzhang asked about was the next "participation intensity".

Lie flat, or continue to cooperate with Lu Chen to expand the scale?

After a while, Wan Jingshui slowly raised his head, "You tell Lu Chen that our three heart areas will continue the next experimental project, but we will not take the initiative to expand the scale, and I don't need this PI (principal investigator) identity."

Previously, the reason why he valued Lu Chen's National Natural Science Project so much was mainly innovation, the only one in the world!

But now, with AstraZeneca in front, the weight of Lu Chen's National Natural Science Project has instantly become much smaller.

There is no way, in the scientific research community, only the first is recognized, not the second.

The first person is the pioneer.

Next, whether it is the second person or the 200th person, it can only be regarded as a repeated experiment.

Wan Jingshui has this time, it is better to cooperate on other projects.

Fang Ruzhang could only nod and agree when he heard Wan Jingshui's words.

...

"Teacher Fang, do you mean that Director Wan will not continue to expand the scale?" Lu Chen's face was a little ugly.

He had not yet recovered from the "bombing" of AstraZeneca's three papers, and was stunned by the news brought by Fang Ruzhang.

Fang Ruzhang nodded slightly, "Director Wan means that we will continue to participate in the experiment, but we will not be the PI, nor will we undertake any major experimental parts."

Lu Chen understood that Director Wan was going to lie flat.

Quitting the PI means that he does not need to pay a lot of costs, and does not need to be responsible for the authenticity of the experimental data and other issues.

As for the final results of the experiment, he is at most just a name, without any substantial results.

"Teacher Fang, please reply for me, I still want to thank Director Wan." Lu Chen smiled bitterly.

This is also understandable.

At this time, Wan Jingshui's choice is not surprising.

He did not quit directly, but chose to continue the next cooperation, which has given him a lot of face.

"Okay." Fang Ruzhang said, "Lu Chen, don't be discouraged, publish a few more SCI papers, and finally complete the National Natural Science Foundation, that would be great."

"Well, okay." Lu Chen responded lightly, and ended the conversation with Fang Ruzhang.

...

Lu Chen's National Natural Science Foundation project encountered an unprecedented crisis.

People like Wan Jingshui, who just quit PI and stayed to continue the experiment, were still giving face.

Many clinical research centers chose to quit directly.

Lu Chen's natural science experiment returned to its original state.

At the current scale, it is impossible to surpass AstraZeneca!

"Lu Chen, you are still young. It is a success to apply for the natural science project this time." Li Yao also felt a great shock at the first time.

"Teacher, do we really have no hope?" Lu Chen said slowly.

"The hope is slim." Li Yao shook her head slightly, "The entire clinical research experiment will last for a year. If we don't have any way to expand the scale of the experiment, even if we can complete the experiment ahead of schedule, it will be impossible to compete with AstraZeneca. On the other hand, even if the scale of the experiment can be expanded, but the progress of the experiment is less than AstraZeneca, everything will be in vain."

To win in this scientific research competition, there are two necessary conditions. One is that the scale of the experiment should not be less than the number of people in the laboratory of AstraZeneca. The second is the progress of the experiment. It is meaningful to complete the project before AstraZeneca.

Lu Chen also knows the difficulty.

In particular, when AstraZeneca published these three papers, it also represented that their research in the field of dapagliflozin for the treatment of heart failure was already very mature.

After a while, Lu Chen's voice came from the phone.

"Teacher, give me another two months, I want to try it myself." Lu Chen said in a deep voice.

"What do you want to do?" Li Yao asked in confusion.

"I want to prove that my experiment is no worse than AstraZeneca's!"

At this moment, Lu Chen's voice was unusually firm.

Although AstraZeneca is a giant multinational company, and although Lu Chen has no capital now, he just wants to give it a try.

Because the worst result is just to return to the state at the beginning of the experiment.

Li Yao's heart moved slightly, and she suddenly understood why Lu Chen could stand out among many students.

"Okay, I'll wait for you!"

...

Lu Chen doesn't have much time. If he can't prove himself and expand the scale of the experiment within two months, then he will completely fail in the scientific research competition.

Because if the scale of the experiment is not expanded for more than two months, his experimental progress will definitely lag behind AstraZeneca, and then everything will be too late!

Fortunately, Lu Chen still has a group of friends who will never leave him.

In the library, Ke Yue, Gu Xinyue, and even Wang Zihao came.

Such a "small" team was established quietly.

No one talked about failure at all. ＵU看书 www. uukanshu.net Everyone had a spirit of not admitting defeat in their eyes.

After AstraZeneca published three papers, Lu Chen spent a whole week to thoroughly understand the context of the three papers.

Knowing yourself and the enemy, you can win every battle.

Half a month has passed since the two-month deadline.

Lu Chen finally started writing the paper.

This time, he was going to complete the writing of three SCI papers.

Lu Chen issued the task.

"Ke Yue, your task is to write one SCI paper each."

"In addition, Lao Gu and Zihao, you two will complete one together!"

Compared with the other two, Ke Yue has experience in completing SCI papers.

And Lao Gu and Wang Zihao have zero experience!

Except for Lu Chen and Ke Yue, this "incompetent" scientific research team does not look like it can publish three SCI papers in two months...
