The story
During the World War II, Nara Prefectural Medical College (奈良県立医学専門学校, Nara Kenritsu Igaku Senmongakkō) was established to supply surgeons for Imperial Army and Navy in April 1945.
After the war ended, in 1947, Nara Medical College was promoted to a university and renamed Nara Medical University.
In 2007, the college of nursing, junior college of nursing established in 1996, was abolished and absorbed into school of medicine (now faculty of nursing).
On July 8, 2022, former Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe was transported to Nara Medical University Hospital after being shot. He was shot at approximately 11:30 JST. Abe was shortly airlifted to Nara Medical University Hospital at 12:09 in cardiopulmonary arrest. At 5:03 Abe was declared dead, he died due to having bled to death from deep wounds to the heart and the front of his neck.
