The lab is building a new model of emergency and disaster medicine from Kyoto.

AboutAbout the lab
Next-generation emergency medicine, the Kyoto University way.
Primary Care and Emergency Medicine is a new department established in 2006.
Kyoto University Hospital is designated as a base hospital for disasters and nuclear disasters, and in 2024 it was designated an Emergency and Critical Care Center. As a pillar of advanced acute care, staff with a variety of specialties work together as a single team.
The lab explores how emergency care is changing with the times, including a super-aged society, frequent disasters, and outbreaks of new infectious diseases, and trains the next generation of leaders in emergency and disaster medicine.
