Comments:

I work as a physician at the Department of Radiology of the National Central Hospital in Mongolia. In 2008, I had a chance to receive one-month training from HICARE. The training was well organized and very constructive for me. After returning home, I would like to share the knowledge that I learned here with my colleagues.

I was also given the opportunity to learn the reality of the tragedy of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the spot. I would like to deliver the message of the abolition of nuclear weapons throughout Mongolia.

I am extremely grateful to the staff of HICARE, President Dohy, Professor Kamiya and Professor Hoshi who took care of me at the Hiroshima University Research Institute for Radiation Biology and Medicine, and people whom I met in Hiroshima.
