Abstract

<p>With many nuclear facilities located in Japan, it is necessary to prepare for radiation accidents. Radiation accidents such as that at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant and the Chernobyl nuclear accident caused the release of radioactive substances. Because of such accidents, the influence of radiation on human health began to receive greater attention. In Aomori Prefecture, northern Japan, Hirosaki University is the focal point for preparing for disaster and cooperating with local residents. Therefore, accurate knowledge and experience on the influence of radiation on the human body is required. Since 2014, the Educational Symposium on Radiation and Health (ESRAH) by Young Scientists has been co-hosted with Hokkaido University. To support the learning of young researchers, top-class researchers from abroad are invited to give educational lectures, facilitating the international exchange of ideas between researchers in various fields. In this meeting, networks and knowledge among young researchers are cultivated, and the human resources capable of playing a role in radiation emergency medicine are nurtured. The 4th ESRAH meeting took place in 2017. Herein we report the meeting findings.</p>
