(健康増進・行動学分野 教授)
【 Subjects taught 】
Introduction to Evidence-Based Medicine, Behavioral Sciences, Special
Seminar in Study Design I, Clinical Trials
【 Emphases in class 】
I think classes in graduate schools require:
1) that students spend at least five hours before they come to one
class, by reading books and preparing reports for the class
2) that the class hour be spent on questions and answers which respond
to each student’s research needs.
The professor must be well prepared to do #2, and I am at that level
only for limited areas in social medicine. This year it seems that I
was able to provide such classes, and I was lucky to have students who
would devote themselves to such classes.
【 Messages to the students 】
It was a great honor and surprise for me to be awarded this
prestigious award by the students. in KUSPH. I am determined to
continue “provocative” classes, and expect future students not only to
follow me but to surpass me.
