Perspectives from OHSU doctors’ medical relief mission in Japan, May 12
Members of OHSU’s research community have asked us to share this special event with readers of Research News:
Aiming toward full recovery of the tsunami-affected area in Japan: Perspectives of OHSU MDs from their recent relief efforts
March 11, 2011. The day Japan shook. It changed everything. The massive earthquake and following tsunami engulfed thousands of lives. We have heard many heartbreaking stories, cries, and tears. It has been almost two months. While news coverage subsides, there is still a need for our support.
Two of the three OHSU MDs, Drs. Taketo Watase and Daisuke Yamashita, who were recently featured in the Oregonian, will be giving talks at the 28th Annual Student Research Forum on Thursday, May 12, from 9 to 10:15 a.m. in the Old Library. They will share their own experiences from recent relief efforts in Japan.
