Research Abstract |
Taken together with our continuous support to the joint research in Belarus, we have newly established the target population in Ukraine. Our cohort is now the world-top class for molecular epidemiological analysis of post-Chernobyl thyroid cancer cases. Our data suggest that there are no association between the proximity of NKX2-1 SNP and radiation-associated thyroid cancers. In March 11 2011, the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred and then subsequently the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) accident happened. Therefore, we have immediately responded to Fukushima to apply our know-how on emergency radiation medicine and crisis/risk communication at the standpoint of “Radiation Exposure and Health Effects” on a basis of Chernobyl experience and our own international cooperative research network.
