The Royal Society - Daiwa Anglo-Japanese
Foundation Joint Project Grants are designed for collaborative projects between
British and Japanese researchers in the field of science. They are funded by the
Foundation and administered by The Royal Society.
Funding, up to £6,000 per annum for two years, is provided to cover travel,
subsistence and research expenses. Eligible projects should include two teams or
individuals: one based in the UK and the other based in Japan. A relationship
between both parties should already be established prior to making an
application and the collaboration should involve bilateral visits between the
British and Japanese collaborators.
The Royal Society is the world's oldest scientific academy in continuous
existence, and has been at the forefront of enquiry and discovery since its
foundation in 1660. There are about 1,400 Fellows and Foreign Members including
60 Nobel Laureates. Previous Fellows include Isaac Newton, Christopher Wren,
Charles Darwin, Ernest Rutherford, and Dorothy Hodgkin.
(Please note that applications for these grants can only come from UK
researchers with the approval of their host organisation. This is because The
Royal Society must be satisfied that any project involves substantial
collaboration between the UK and Japan. Japanese researchers should therefore
ask their British partner to submit any application.)
