The next 20 years in Japan and neurotherapy

Abstract

Japan's population is aging at a rate never before experienced by humankind. In this context, neurologists are expected to have a wide range of skills, including ability to comprehensively understand and deal with patients who has multimorbidity, complex decision support, promotion of drug discovery and clinical trials, and medical care that supports patients who live, all of which have not been covered in undergraduate education to date. I have looked ahead to the next 20 years as a neurology department that is more useful to society.
