Education

Taking account of not only environmental factors but also genetic factors that define and influence health, students learn basic methods for assessing experimental and epidemiological information on various determinants of health. They are also given the opportunity to analyze the information from a scientific, international and multidisciplinary point of view.

Graduate Course


Taking account of not only environmental factors but also genetic factors that define and influence health, students learn methods for assessing experimental and epidemiological information on various determinants of health.@They are also expected to be able to assess the information from an international point of view through lectures and discussion.@And@through conducting the specific research, they are expected to obtain independent skill in research activity and presentation.

Research

  1. Alcoholic liver disease
  2. Hepatitis C virus
  3. Health promotion
  4. Health at various life stages
  5. Health problems in nursing
