While to many Americans the bombings may seem to date from a bygone era, the scientific knowledge obtained from these experiences is more relevant than ever before. It is likely the best evidence that will ever be gathered on the short- and long-term effects of nuclear exposure on a large population. In Japan, the dropping of the atomic bombs engendered a series of national medical studies copiously documented and analyzed by American and Japanese physicians and scientists.
