Feedback:

- It was nice to be able to learn about radiation theory as well as the research results of Radiation Biology. Also, I could learn about the experiences of atomic bomb survivors at the time, and administrative and legal matters to support them, so I think it was a very good training session.

- Lectures were also informative. In addition, hearing the experiences of A-bomb survivors who are still alive today, made us realize that this is not just something that has passed, but something that is still ongoing. I thought we needed to work harder too.

- Although I knew about Hiroshima, this was an opportunity to learn more about the reality of the atomic bombing.

- I came to learn many facts that I had not known before. I would like to express my gratitude to the A-bomb survivor  who shared the experience with us.

- I have become more vigilant against radiation exposure, and I will share this with the people around me.
