Self-Introduction
I myself have gone from radiation technology studies → information engineering→ medical informatics → business administration following my interests. Perhaps because of that background according to graduate students my favorite sayings are "If it isn't fun it's not research," "Do not refuse those who come" and "faith and passion."
Message for Examinees
Medical informatics and clinical economics are not very dependent on academics and instead are very border-less areas of study. In seminars everybody participates in the relentless exchange of questions and opinions but I believe trading ideas with members of the lab coming from various backgrounds will result in acquiring new points of view. Not limited to medical/science students we also welcome individuals with liberal arts backgrounds.
