I graduated from the Jikei university school of medicine in Tokyo and then became a medical doctor in Japan. I trained in hospitals of the university and chose to pursue the path to a paediatrician. My subspecialty in paediatrics is, baby, neonatology. Hence, I spent most of my time in, what we call, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Then, at the tenth year of my career, I crossed the ocean to Australia for my overseas study. The first objective was to enrol into a master course of journalism in the University of Queensland (UQ). From that time, I have been considering discoursing realm of neonatology around which there are lots of profound stories by incorporating journalism power and expertise. To do this, I was very excited to learn journalism and challenge new things in an overseas country outside Japan. The reason I chose Australia was that largely my impression towards UQ's master course of journalism was good though, at the same time there was another big reason that was my recognition towards Australia where it was a relatively open country for overseas doctors to practice medicine. Therefore, I chose Australia with a hope that I could register into Australian medical practice as a doctor while I was studying journalism in UQ. After all, myself, my wife and my two kids, my family of four vacated and moved to Australia with no home in Japan to come back to.
