In this class, it is assumed that students are equipped with basic impact evaluation skills. Thus, we will read top-ranked academic journals’ papers to update our knowledge on policy evaluations and critically discuss each academic paper. For PhD students, it is important to read academic papers outside of their primary interest areas in order to expand their knowledge and perspective. Therefore, paper themes will not be specified so long as they relate to policy evaluations. 1. Review of policy evaluation – various methods and combining these methods
2.~9. Reading academic journals – discussion
10. Understanding and make people understand results of impact evaluation Degree Programs in Humanities and Social Sciences Doctoral Program in International Public Policy Tsukuba Campus 1. General-propose competence: knowledge creativity, management capability, communicative ability.

Translational Science has been of more importance to bridge basic research in the preclinical stage and patient care in the clinical stage. From drug discovery research point of view, it can enhance our understanding and confidence in targets, bringing potential compounds and biologics up to Proof of Concept earlier. Bio-imaging is a translatable tool from preclinical study to clinical study with same methodology such as PET MRI CT, to investigate pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and efficacy especially in target organs with more minimally invasive.
