On June 6, 2023, KKU-MD welcomed Miss Maako IFUKU, second-year exchange student from Kumamoto University, Japan to our Cholangiocarcinoma Research Institute for four weeks (June 7 – 30, 2023) and Department of Tropical Medicine for four weeks (July 4 – 26, 2023). The program was organized under the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for academic cooperation between Kumamoto University and KKU-MD.
At her Orientation Day, she was introduced to our faculty and programs via a campus tour, supervisor meetings, and city tour with her new KKU-MD student friends to visit famous attractions such as learning Thai culture at Wat Nong Waeng, experiencing the excitement of the amazing city view on the 28th floor skywalk of Khon Kaen Innovation Center, and the KKU Natural History Museum.
