Feedback:

- We received detailed explanations about the medical support system for A-bomb Survivors and research on the effects of radiation on the human body.
- I would like to share the knowledge I gained through this training with others and continue deepening my understanding by reading more relevant medical and scientific literature.
- It was a valuable opportunity to learn about the effects of the atomic bomb on the human body and to consider various approaches to support A-bomb Survivors, including national-level responses, at the very site of the first nuclear bombing in human history.
