The 12th IACSC International Symposium/General Assembly will be held at YCU next academic year, and it continues to be taken into education and research activities.
Unlike in the previous years, no YCU student was actually sent to the Symposium abroad, due to COVID-19. However, one Nursing student made an online research presentation. Through the presentation and the following Q & A section, the participant interacted with researchers and students in Asian countries.
