Feedback:
-It was an honor to hear the valuable experience and knowledge of the various specialists who are dedicated to the treatment of radiological emergency.
- Hopefully, people around the world will remember the tragedy of Hiroshima 80 years ago, know the dangers of the atomic bomb and radiation, and share the pain together.
- I knew only the facts of radiation damage but did not know the specifics. This time I was able to learn about them.
-I learned a lot of knowledge and information about Hiroshima. I will share the knowledge I gained from this training with other staff members.
-It was a great opportunity to learn in detail about the research process and treatment efforts for the Hibakusha in Japan. Through the research materials, it was easy to understand the dangers of radiation, its fatalities, and the enormous amount of time and money required to recover from the damage.
