Feedback:

-It was good to get the systematic knowledge of the dangers of the atomic bomb and to get to know the people involved.

- I became clearly aware of the damage caused by the atomic bombing, which had previously been vague to me, and now it is clear that it must never be repeated. From now on, I would like to inform the public widely of the damage caused by the A-bombings and also participate in the campaign for the peaceful use of nuclear energy.

-I could learn more about the detailed experience of health care for A-bomb survivors and the effects of radiation on the human body.

-I learned about the devastation caused by the atomic bombs and acquired the biological knowledge (biological effects) of radiation.

-It was good to have time to understand the atomic bombing.

-I learned a lot about the medical use of radiation and the dangers of nuclear weapons.
