- Self-introduction
- Since I became a Professor of the Faculty of Medicine, Hiroshima University, in September, 2000 and the head Professor of the Division of Gastroenterology of Hiroshima University Hospital in April 2002, our laboratory has evolved steadily as the result of the hard work of its doctors, staff and graduate students in the field of medical examination, education and research. We really appreciate the support of persons concerned with these activities.
