1. What made you come train at Shinshu University School of Medicine and how did you find the School through your stay?
I think it's necessary for me to go abroad for some clinical training before I become a doctor, and since Shinshu University has always been closely connected with my university, I believe that Shinshu University is an excellent university, so I chose Shinshu University for clinical training.

2. Please describe your training at host department/lab.
During the clinical training, I followed the doctors in the department for ward rounds. The doctors in the department would explain to me the relevant knowledge of different diseases in English. And I was also arranged to visit the neurophysiology examination room regularly, and I learned a lot about the examination methods for neurological diseases.

3. Please list what you have gained from your experiences through the training at Shinshu University and the stay in Matsumoto, Japan.
1.My English speaking level improved significantly.
2.I learned about the differences in the incidence rates of different neurological diseases between China and Japan.
3.I made friends with the doctors in the department.

4. How do you think you can apply those experiences to your future career?
I found that Japanese hospital departments do a very good job of providing humanistic care to patients. I think that is very necessary for patients. During the process of medical treatment,patients are in pain both physically and mentally, so it is very important for doctors to give them humanistic care. I think it is also necessary for me to do as same when I become a doctor.
