  3. History of the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST)

  4. Creation of advanced technology (Basic research program) Promotion of business using advanced technology (Technology transfer program) Promotion of the dissemination of scientific and technological information (Function as a STI Center) Researcher exchange and research support (International collaborative program) Promotion of the understanding of science and technology by the public (Science education, Science museum) Activities of JST

  5. Budget Profile of JST •Revenue and Expenditure in FY2007 Unit: Million Euros Promotion for public understanding of science and technology 61 Operating income 53 (8.5%) Others 3 (7.3%) Researcher exchange and research support 25 Others 51 (0.3%) (6.9%) (3.3%) Total 724 Total 724 Government Subsidy 668 Promotion of dissemination of science and technology information 71 Creation of advanced technology 369 (92.3%) (50.9%) Promotion of business using advanced technology 147 (9.9%) (20.4%) Number of staff as of July, 2007 Number of permanent staff: 471（M:F = 4:1 / Ph.D: 34 MD:172 ) Number of researchers and others employed by JST: ≒ 3,000 (M:F = 3:2)

  6. Strategic International Cooperative Program (SICP) Overview • Based on agreements between the governments of both countries • MEXT decides which country and research field to cooperate • JST Supports expenses of joint research projects (small-scale), personnel exchanges (travel), holding of meetings, etc • Budget for Japanese side: about 5 million JPY (about 30,000EUR) / project / year (for 3 years) Schematic

  7. Strategic International Cooperative Program (SICP) Objectives To promote international exchanges between researchers on specific research areas by • implementing cooperative researches of relatively small-scale, • personnel exchanges, i.e., invitations and dispatches, and • holding meetings such as symposiums and workshops. Schema 1) JST cooperates with appropriate funding agency of counterpart country for assisting internationally cooperative research activities. 2) JST and counterpart agency call for proposals separately in each country and select projects jointly. 3) JST funds Japanese researchers and counterpart agency does its ones.

  8. Cooperation with France Counterpart agency Field of cooperation Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) Information and Communications Technology (ICT) including Computer Science Call for proposals : 2005, 2006, 2007 Possible research themes • Quantum Information Processing • MOEMS/NOEMS/BioMEMS • MEMS/NEMS for RF and millimeterwave communications • Ubiquitous computing and network Software Architectures for distributed systems • Grid computing, Virtual reality, Information Security, IPV6 and security • Robotics 15 projects were selected New field of cooperation : to be announced in June 2008

  9.
