Jin Yan, unlike Yan Xi and Ling Ling, was already an attending physician and a pillar of the hepatobiliary surgery department at Saint An Hospital. She had already launched her own research project: "The Efficacy of Ultrasound-Guided Surgical Treatment for Early-Stage Liver Cancer."
Her project was already taking shape. This was one of the reasons Jin Yu had gone to the trouble of shamelessly tagging along with Professor Ma on this inspection tour; he had already submitted her project proposal to the professor for review.
However, in Professor Ma Mengchao's opinion, while Jin Yan's project had some merit, it wasn't yet at the level required to contend for major foundation funding.
As an already established and mature physician, Jin Yan would certainly not stay behind to work with this fledgling, destitute research center like Yan Xi and Ling Ling.
