JSPS SHORT-TERM INVITATION FELLOWSHIP FOR RESEARCH IN JAPAN

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has been asked to nominate a
select group of American scientists and engineers to receive Japan
Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) fellowships for 7-60 day
research visits to Japan. The JSPS fellowships are meant to enable
foreign researchers to carry out collaborative projects with
counterparts in Japanese universities and inter-university research
institutes. NSF hopes to nominate individuals that are established
leaders in their respective research fields and that can provide
coordination and networking to significantly advance U.S.-Japan
collaboration in areas of direct interest to NSF.

A typical fellowship recipient would work on a clearly defined research
project in conjunction with a host researcher at a Japanese university
laboratory. NSF nominees will also be expected to visit and interact
with other Japanese laboratories in order to identify where the best
work is being done in their field in Japan and to establish or
strengthen personal contacts that will facilitate future collaborations
and exchanges.

Note that the JSPS fellowships are paid for and administered by the
Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. The NSF Japan and Korea
Program receives applications and nominates selected candidates; JSPS
makes the final decision. Applications to NSF will be internally
evaluated and nominations will be made on the basis of NSF program
priorities. Priority will be given to individuals who have not
previously received a JSPS (or parallel STA) Short-Term Fellowship.=20

The target date for applications to NSF is March 15, 1997. Research
visits of 7-60 days starting any time between June 1, 1997 and March
31, 1998 can be considered under this cycle.

Researchers may also apply for fellowships directly to JSPS through
potential Japanese hosts. Such applications are considered in May and
September for visits of 14-60 days starting any time in the following
Japanese fiscal year (April 1 - March 31).

Program details and an application form are attached below (and also in
the attached Word file). For further information on NSF's programs
with Japan, please see the NSF Tokyo homepage at
