Abstract

The present paper analyzed Chinese medical staff (including stomatologists, pharmacists, and nurses), comprising a total 1782 persons who visited Japan from 1987 through 2006 and were sponsored by the Sasagawa Medical Fellowship. Chinese stomatologists accounted for 88 persons among the total of 1782. Among the 88 stomatologists, 15 were from the 4th Military Medical University, 9 from Jilin University, 8 from Beijing University, and 6 from China Medical University; a total of 25 were from North East China. The departments of Japanese universities attended by Chinese stomatologists included 17 departments of in periodontology and conservative dentistry, 16 departments of oral surgery, 12 departments of prosthetics, 11 departments of orthodontics, and 8 departments of pedodontics at dental and medical schools. Stomatologists who had learned major specialties in Chinese stomatological colleges also majored in similar specialties at the Japanese universities or hospitals.
Chinese administrators have been investigating Japanese health science systems, including not only medical technology and clinical medicine, but also several administrative specialties such as medical law, public health, provention of infection diseases, cancer, population research, and budgets from both research and clinical perspectives.
Medical staff from central administration in the Government of China have also learned considerably from his or her experience during investigations in Japan. No administration staff of stomatologists were supported by the Sasagawa Fund.
