Abstract |
The 25th Annual Meeting of Japanese Society for Clinical Microbiology was held on February 1 and 2, 2014, in Nagoya under the Meeting President Yoshichika Arakawa (Professor of Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine). The catch phrase for this Annual Meeting stated "To discover novelties by seeking for old things, and to make them serve for the future." Proposal of the catch phrase was based on the historical background that just half a century has passed since the laboratories for clinical examinations were established in most of Japanese hospitals. I was asked by Professor Arakawa to present a special lecture in this Annual Meeting. I had engaged in the daily work in the microbiological laboratory and also in the education in the School for Laboratory Technologists at the dawn of clinical examinations in Nagoya University Hospital. After a few decades since then, I had to be involved in the development of schools and hospital in Nagoya University as the Dean of Medicine and the President of University. Professor Arakawa nominated me as the lecturer for a special lecture probably based on my career. In the Annual Meeting, I presented the lecture which consisted of the same title and contents as in this paper. |
