The Fifth Floor

About the Book

This book is like a movie watching international scientists at a US hospital at The University of Chicago over the shoulder. It captures the excitement, achievements, up and downs as well as the friendship of the lab members working on different floors, in particular on the fifth floor. Some of the lab members we will encounter briefly, some to a more extent. We will follow them on campus and sometimes to beautiful downtown Chicago.
