Yanjing University People's Hospital.
Shen Qi accompanied Ou Ye as she completed the admission procedures for the clinical trial.
Medication schedule, blood-draw schedule, food and water log, urine collection log, bed assignment form... Ou Ye collected a stack of forms.
Patient gown, name badge, wristband, bedside card... Ou Ye collected a whole set of hospital-ward supplies.
Ou Ye preferred quiet, so the hospital had arranged a private room for her.
Before leaving, Shen Qi reminded her, "Honey, I'll head back first. If you feel unwell or need anything, just call me, okay?

Professor Qu's team of clinical trial researchers and the accompanying nursing team were all professional, meticulous, and responsible.
Ou Ye's trial admission coincided with the grand opening of the IUPAC World Chemistry Congress at the Capital International Convention Center.
At the organizing committee's invitation, Shen Qi would give a three-hour academic lecture at the conference, followed by a two-hour Q&A session.
More than a thousand Chinese and foreign chemistry scholars from over fifty countries and regions had gathered at the Capital International Convention Center, including several Nobel Chemistry Prize laureates and many renowned chemists.
The Capital International Convention Center had a main auditorium that could seat several hundred people, as well as many smaller meeting rooms seating a few dozen.
