Public Health Research and Policy Implementation in Maternal and Child Health
Date: October 13, 2024, 13:00-16:30
Venue: Hinohara Hall, B1F, St. Luke's Center for Clinical Academia (streamed simultaneously)
On Sunday, October 13th, we held an open campus event in hybrid format (on-site and online).
The first part of the event was a symposium on the theme of Public Health Research and Policy Implementation in Maternal and Child Health. We invited Dr. Zentaro Yamagata to give the keynote speech, which was entitled Maternal and child health research and policy implementation from the perspective of EBPM - Research begins and ends with the people. He introduced various approaches he has taken for children’s health as a physician, researcher and educator, and talked about the importance of working together with local people in order for research to actually be useful for the people. Next, Associate Professor Tsuguhiko Kato gave a lecture on Maternal and child health and early childhood education, presenting the possibility that breaking the negative cycle of poverty through early childhood education can have a long-term impact on adult health. Associate Professor Satomi Sato then gave a lecture on Is Childhood Cancer a Public Health Issue? She introduced case studies of the problems and difficulties faced by children who have survived childhood cancer and returned to school and society, and suggested that considering social health beyond the point where lives are saved could be a public health theme. Finally, a panel discussion was held with Associate Professor Kazunari Onishi as a facilitator, discussing the important role of intermediary personnel who connect policy makers and researchers and the importance of close collaboration among various institutions in order to make public health research useful in society.
The second part of the event was a session introducing the school curriculum and answering questions frequently asked by prospective applicants, followed by presentations by current students. The students gave presentations on how they are working to solve global medical and health problems that they are tackling through their work, research, and internships, as well as their future prospects.
After this, individual consultations and a mini campus tour were held for those who attended the event onsite. Thank you very much for your participation.

The Open Campus on Sunday, June 2, 2024
Public health endeavors for planetary health
Date: June 2, 2024, 13:00-16:30
Venue: Hinohara Hall, B1F, St. Luke's Center for Clinical Academia
Method: In-person event (streamed simultaneously)
On Sunday, June 2, Open Campus was held in a hybrid format (on-site and online).
The part 1 of the event was a symposium on "Public health endeavors for planetary health". In the 21st century, the Earth faces a range of problems such as climate change, natural disasters, and emerging infectious diseases that threaten the stability of the entire planet. The health of the earth is the health of the entire planet and the ecosystems that support human health, and thinking about the health of the earth means thinking about the health of the human beings and societies. At this symposium, we introduced examples of how public health is an interdisciplinary field that is involved in various fields of society, and we considered from each perspective what contribution public health can make to the health of the planet.
The part 2 of the event was a session introducing the school curriculum and answering questions frequently asked by prospective applicants, followed by presentations by current students. The students gave presentations on how they are working to solve global medical and health problems that they are tackling through their work, research, and internships, as well as their future prospects. A video message from the graduating students, filmed on the day of their graduation ceremony in March of this year, was also presented.
After the part 2 of the event, individual consultations and a mini campus tour were held for those who attended the event onsite. Thank you very much for your participation.
