Feedback

- As a head of the Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences, I intend to organize what I have learned and will deepen them to educate other staff members in the Center. In addition, since our center is located adjacent to a nuclear power plant, I intend to share what I have learned with the local community and students.

- We heard the vivid stories of A-bomb survivors who actually survived, saw firsthand the traces of the bombing, and attended lectures by doctors involved in medical l treatment and research.
- Based on the knowledge we have gained this time,  I will train myself to respond appropriately in the event of an actual radiation accident.

- After returning home, I will share the horror and danger of nuclear accidents with others and prepare myself to be ready for such an event.

- I plan to use them (the knowledge I gained through the training) to build a solid background in my study field and to expand my clinical studies. I will also use them as an important resource in educating future medical students who study radiation.
