Goal

This program is intended to educate able researchers in medical science so they may contribute to the development of medicine and the improvement of social welfare. Students will be provided with a wide breadth and depth of knowledge and skills to allow them to work creatively and independently.

 
Features of the curriculum

We have organized our advanced research course into 1 course, subdivided into 3 subdivisions and the Oncology Specialist training into 4 courses. Fields of research include the molecular level of genes and proteins, regenerative medicine, organ control, and environmental medicine.

Free from conventional departmental limitations on research guidance, the academic staff involved in the courses and related fields support the education and research work of graduate students, while maintaining close liaison with one another beyond the normal scope of basic medical and clinical departments.

During the first and second years of the program, through the core Curriculum common to all courses, students acquire extensive Knowledge of key areas including statistics, experimental design, analysis, and other skills fundamental to research. In addition they will receive instruction in the ethical issues involved in medical research.
The curriculum is designed to give great emphasis to the success and creativity of graduate student research.
