Recently, PI Shanshan and Zhang Shuwen, PhD students at Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, received a banner with the inscription: “A doctor’s heart loves no boundaries.” The banner was presented by a husband and wife, who used this traditional way to thank two medical doctoral students for helping them on the train. On the 19th, PI Shanshan talked about this experience and modestly said, “The ability to help others when they are in trouble is the original intention and meaning of my study of medicine.”
The story behind Jinqi happened more than two months ago, when couple PI Shanshan and Zhang Shuwen returned to Beijing by train after their National Day holiday. After more than two hours on the train, it was late at night. An emergency broadcast broke the silence in the carriage. “It was after 10 p.m., when the radio suddenly asked for medical workers, I could hear the voice of the flight attendants worried.”
After hearing the broadcast, Pisanshan and Zhang Shuwen, who were resting, immediately got up and found the flight attendant to identify themselves. “We showed the license of practicing medicine that we carried with us, and the flight attendant immediately took us to the sleeping car where the passengers were asked for help.”

The next day, the patient sent a text message thanking him that his symptoms had eased. Zhang Shuwen is not at ease, and asked in a text message: “If there is vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other discomfort, to go to the hospital as soon as possible to check.”
Back at school, the young couple continued their studies. What both people did not expect was that this “unexpected” fate was renewed after more than two months – recently, the couple once again came to Beijing on business, a special trip to the hospital where PI Shanshan and Zhang Shuwen sent a banner. At this time, the story of the doctor couple’s help was known to colleagues in the hospital and teachers in the school.
In the face of the praise of those around her, Pishanshan said, “Coming forward is the professional instinct of medical personnel.” Zhang Shuwen proudly said: “We met in the university, learn professional knowledge together, improve medical skills, but also together to help patients, very sense of accomplishment.”
