Feedback:

This training gave me a valuable opportunity to get acquainted with many specialists who have long been engaged in research on atomic weapons and radiation. I was impressed by hearing their lectures, visiting facilities, and seeing their equipment during this training. These experiences will be very beneficial for my research.
I would like to maintain the relationships that I established with researchers of Hiroshima University Hospital during the training. Our stay in Hiroshima during the training was very comfortable and exiting, and the days will remain in my mind as a pleasant memory. Thank you very much for your kind hospitality.
