Every year since 2016, St. Luke's International University Graduate School of Public Health has received the Sakura Science Plan grant from the Japan Science and Technology Foundation (JST), and has conducted an exchange program for young researchers of infectious disease epidemiology in Asia in collaboration with the National Institute of Infectious Diseases (NIID). This program aims to establish networks of young researchers of field epidemiology in the Asian region by sharing information and experience to contribute to the control of infectious diseases in Asia in the future.
