> countermeasures. This Society, therefore, seeks to contribute to the
> promotion of scientifically sound countermeasures and solutions by
> encouraging the free exchange and interplay of international research
> activities. The most distinctive features of this Society will be:
> 1) Focusing on health risks associated with the occurrence of unpreferable
> health conditions, to carry out evidence-based health policy study by
means
> of numerous analyses of countermeasures for preventive management of
health
> risks.
> 2) To promote advancing the techniques and theory of "management" as
> required by the science of preventive medicine.
