Considering former fellows who have accrued experience in Japan under this JSPS postdoctoral program to be valuable assets in advancing research between Japan and its counterpart countries, JSPS has launched follow-up activities aimed at forming and maintaining a network between former JSPS fellows and JSPS itself as well as among the former JSPS fellows.
The US and Canada JSPS Alumni Association was launched in 2004.
The Objectives are
•To maintain and expand the network of JSPS program participants and
•To promote scientific cooperation between the U.S., Canada and Japan.
Regular Members can apply for the Bridge Fellowship and Alumni Seminar Program.
