Feedback:

－I will be able to share the knowledge I learned about the devastating long-term health effects of radiation due to exposure to such an event. And also, I will remind everyone that radiation can also happen with some of the technologies we now have and to ensure that everyone takes the necessary precaution to prevent any radiation exposure.

 

－The curriculum was perfect for physician-level and of knowledge and skill.  The agenda was well organized and covered all of the relevant areas of learning.　 Ending the program with training in how to plan for nuclear disaster was wise and important.

 

－Will organize a series of lectures for faculty, clinical fellows, residents and medical students.　

Schedule was well organized, maximizing efficiency. Excellent showcase of Hiroshima and Japanese culture.
