Japan-US Research Collaboration Week (July 2023)
Creating Japan- US Research Highway

The Japan-US Research Collaboration Week aims to accelerate research collaboration between Japan and the US particularly in the fields of science and technology. By fostering collaborations and partnerships between Japan and the United States, we can establish trust networks and build a community of diverse and highly talented researchers.  These networks will be valuable assets to society and encourage innovation, especially when tackling global issues and crises. Furthermore, they will contribute to the development of the next generation of human resources, fostering peace and stability in the Pacific region.
This is a unique opportunity for new stakeholders to participate in ongoing research collaborations that are either already successful or on track for success.  By learning from these collaborations, stakeholders can gain insight into the “Research Highway”, which is being developed as a mechanism to accelerate research collaboration between Japan and the US and link the research outcomes to social implementation and commercialization.
