Chapter 1448: Chapter 1079: Funding is Not an Issue Chapter 1448: Chapter 1079: Funding is Not an Issue After the new plan was determined, everyone started to get busy again. The treatnt of the tumor now has two paths, and in the future, a third or even more paths may be opened up.
With human and financial resources able to support, it’s most reliable to explore all possible aspects of the technology tree and make choices based on the situation afterward.
The integration of scientific research and clinical practice is becoming wider. Yang Ping is very satisfied with his initial decision; without strong scientific research capabilities, Sisi’s treatnt would have been stuck in old thods like being in a dead end with no hope at all. With strong scientific research as support, Yang Ping can explore new thods to solve problems and thus promote so dical technological innovations.
Yang Ping agrees with Tang Shun that cell therapy has a boundless future; it will develop into a vast system. Stem cells are just a branch of cell therapy, so Yang Ping decides to expand the stem cell experints and upgrade it to a cell therapy room, temporarily just changing a sign, later requiring an expansion of the talent team and lab space.
The Sanbo Laboratory will need an entire building or even several in the future, instead of shrinking in these few floors. Yang Ping assesses the space still available at the Surgical Research Institute; this developnt will soon fully utilize the space available.
The cell therapy laboratory is about to establish a patient ward to apply research findings clinically, such as launching the 1.2 million per dose CAR-T cell therapy, and later, CAR-NK cell therapy, as well as K-NK cell therapy, which is currently being experinted.
Once a clinical ward for cell therapy is established, at least one floor will be needed for the stem cell therapy area since only the rich or noble can afford stem cell treatnts, and the ward conditions cannot be too modest; at a minimum, private rooms are required. Other cell therapies will also need a floor each. By this account, three floors are required for cell therapies, and even this will be tight. One floor for the Tumor Laboratory, one for the surgical ward, one soon-to-be-established independent ICU, one for the operating room, and one for outpatient services. Calculating this way, all eight floors are already fully utilized, and it still appears very tight. Since one floor for the surgical ward is definitely not enough, it is already very congested. An additional floor will be needed for teaching areas as the number of resident doctors, doctoral students, and master students increases, otherwise, everyone will be cramd into the wards with very limited space.
This is only the beginning of the developnt; this building is definitely not sufficient. Yang Ping imdiately reports his needs to Dean Xia, hoping to find a piece of land in the hospital to create a new area specifically for laboratories. Separating the Surgical Research Institute and the laboratory would provide much more space.
These matters were already in Dean Xia’s plans; Sanbo Hospital has a lot of developable land available, and Dean Xia has already planned an area specifically for laboratories. Even if the hospital currently has no land, he only needs to report upwards, and a piece of land will soon be granted to him.
Regarding financial matters, with Sanbo Hospital’s current status, no amount of money is a problem. Having been dean for so many years, this is the first ti Dean Xia is not anxious about money; previously, he frequently traveled outside to raise funds to the point of getting a bleeding stomach for a small amount of money, but now, simply filing a report imdiately brings the funds into account.
In his years as dean, Dean Xia has done many things but never sought personal gains; being desireless makes him resolute, so he fears nothing and dares to act. Since he has no vulnerabilities, he does things without hesitation. He bravely speaks up about unfair matters both upwards and downwards, defending his position with reason.
Dean Xia is also considering the expansion of the hospital; once cell therapy develops, the departnt of tumor dicine will definitely expand, followed by an expansion of tumor surgery. The Surgical Research Institute is only not expanding now due to staffing issues, but if it did, it would probably have expanded several tis by now.
Currently, Sanbo Hospital is controlling its growth slowly, ensuring quality while expanding. The hospital’s size is not simply about being bigger; at a certain point in its developnt, the hospital needs to focus on cutting-edge technologies rather than competing over the basic services that lower-tier hospitals provide. Otherwise, even if it’s bigger, it’s aningless; it just ans squeezing out small clinics, shifting their patient base to oneself, everyday—it’s utterly aningless. Originally it was a dense forest, now one tree is drawing all the nutrients to grow bigger, but eventually, the whole forest dies, leaving one lonely tree, which is aningless.
Therefore, Sanbo Hospital is very cautious about expanding in scale; it won’t expand thoughtlessly without significance, but rather, it aims to grow strong before it grows larger, not just big without strength.

After adding the plan, theoretically, researchers in the laboratory would be discouraged, indicating that previous experints had encountered difficulties, necessitating a change in direction and increased workload, and the prospects for the new plan remain unclear.
But instead, the researchers in several laboratories are not only not discouraged but are excited as if they had been injected with an elixir. The research on K-virus treatnt has already achieved a significant breakthrough from 0 to 1. This success is pioneering; no matter if the tumor eradication rate was once as high as before or even lower, as long as it’s not zero, it’s a success.
The viral laboratory at Nandu dical University, previously a re supporting role, has now beco a leader because Yang Ping has delegated this project to them; it wouldn’t be surprising if they weren’t excited.
