General Management Group’s Research Support Plan (FY 2018)
Outline
- We hold one or two Management Board Meeting(s) a year.
- We examine to solve the problems identified in the first year.
- We moderate each platforms and support institutions
- We examine to construct a common database such as the formats.
- We moderate the framework of charging, intellectual property, and contract. (Standard setting committee, once or twice a year)
- We have coordinators to gather information of the actual conditions of the support activities. Based on the information, we advise and examine the challenges in consideration of the regional characteristics.
- We plan to expand the public relations by organizing public lectures, and to increase the number of users.
- We ensure the usability of users at one-stop service system.
- We study our support method across institutions, and streamline the systems.
- We ensure the sustainability and development of the support systems.
- We hold two cooperation building activities to bridge the four platforms a year.
- Our coordinators facilitate the cooperation between regions, institutions, platforms, and increase the number of support activities and users.
- We hold an annual Briefing and Symposium, to inform our content of support and outcome to the public.
- We hold beneficial meetings such as Briefing, Outcome Presentation, and discussions. We also continue to conduct a survey (questionnaires) to substantially contribute to the overall research supported by KAKENHI (Grant-in-aid for Scientific Research, MEXT) , for the cutting-edge research, in addition to a wide variety of research support needs.
- We co-host symposiums on the common theme across the platforms to strengthen its substantial cooperation.
- We plan to increase the number of participants at the symposiums and seminars for the general public based on cost-benefit analysis. We continue to raise the people’s awareness of understanding the research activity and research support content to be supported by, and to contribute to the Japanese people.
