On July 27, 2026, we held a farewell gathering for Monica Barglinski and Muzzammil Hooda, visiting students from McMaster University.

During their stay at Niigata University, they introduced the Canadian healthcare system and culture in the Intercultural Nursing Seminar, presented their research at the International Research Exchange Meeting, and participated in various activities with students and faculty members.

At the farewell gathering, students and faculty members came together to reflect on their time in Niigata and enjoy a warm and friendly exchange. We hope that the connections formed through these activities will contribute to further international collaboration in education and research.

We sincerely wish Monica and Muzzammil continued success in their future studies and careers.
