- (1) Participation as a project manager (PM).
- Calls for PM will be announced when it is open on “Topics” in official website for Moonshot R&D program.
- All nationalities are welcome to be a PM, but PMs are principally based in Japan after being appointed.
- -Currently no applications are available.
- (2) Participation with financial support from Moonshot R&D Program.
- (e.g., as a principal investigator or other type of participation under the supervision of the relevant PM)
- -Currently no applications are available.
- (3) Participation (Cooperation) without financial support from Moonshot R&D program.
- No official applications to calls are needed while the participation depends on the decision of PM and PD on whether international participation is necessary to achieve the relevant Goal after consultation.
For participations under (2) and (3), a base in Japan is not required.
Since specific process and arrangement depend on cases, potential international applicants are suggested to contact the relevant funding agencies (FA), i.e. JST, NEDO, BRAIN or AMED.
