“The collaboration between Yale School of Nursing and the University of Tokyo provided me with invaluable insights into the latest research and best practices in the field of nursing. This international collaboration embodied YSN’s mission of better health for all people as healthcare professionals from diverse backgrounds and cultures came together, collaborated on a global scale, and provided an opportunity for students and healthcare professionals to gain a broader perspective on global healthcare challenges and solutions.”
