What kind of problems are we facing\u00a0and what are the possible solutions?<br \/>\nWhy not sit down with future\u00a0medical professionals and discuss these topics together?<\/p>\n<p>For this event no prior knowledge of medicine or specialist English\u00a0terminology is required. International students are more than welcome to\u00a0share information about the situation in their own countries as well!<br \/>\nThis is an unique opportunity for Waseda students to interact and chat\u00a0in a casual setting with students from another university!
