The experiences exemplify the special opportunity in Japan to enhance research by merging mathematical talent with biomedical observations.

Role of mathematics in cancer research: attitudes and training of Japanese mathematicians.

An extensive survey of attitude towards scientific information of scientists in Japan was conducted in Japan. It was published in a technical report, and this survey is reviewed in this paper, with the hope that this will furnish findings important in working out the plan for promoting exploitation of mathematical talent in biomedical research. Findings are concordant with the impression of for...
