A new program US-Japan Young Scientists Exchange Program has been marked between MEXT, Japan and NSF. An exchange visits to several Japanese universities for twelve US scientists, with research interests broadly defined as Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, at the early stages of their academic careers is proposed. The Japanese government will sponsor an equivalent trip of twelve young scientists from Japan to several US universities as the other part of this exchange visit. The US scientists will visit Japan for ten days November 3-14, 2003. The format of the trip will consist of a one-day workshop in Tokyo followed by site visits to various Japanese universities. Both the US as well as the Japanese team will present brief summaries of their research at the workshop, allowing the scientists to learn about their areas of research. The laboratories to be visited will depend upon the research interests of the team members, with one day for each site. The Japanese colleagues, in equivalent stages of their careers, will be visiting US universities September 24-October 4, 2003. The format for their trip will be similar, a workshop, followed by site visits.Links established between scientists in the US and Japan at the very early stages of their academic careers will lay the foundation for a long-term fruitful collaboration over an extended period, maximizing the probability for a successful global interdisciplinary effort. Besides the presenters, several additional university colleagues are expected to attend the symposia at MIT and in Japan. This exposure will translate directly to education of graduate students, potentially as visiting students or as postdoctoral fellows. Undergraduate students in research groups will also benefit from this experience. A side benefit of this program is the exposure of US and Japanese scientists to research programs in their own groups.

日本文部科学省与美国国家科学基金会签署了新的“美日青年科学家交流计划”。提议让12名研究兴趣广泛定义为纳米科学和纳米技术的美国科学家在其学术生涯的早期阶段到几所日本大学进行交流访问。作为此次交流访问的另一部分，日本政府将资助12名日本青年科学家前往美国几所大学进行同等程度的访问。美国科学家将于2003年11月3日至14日访问日本，为期10天。这次访问的形式将包括在东京进行为期一天的研讨会，然后实地访问日本各所大学。美国和日本的研究小组都将在研讨会上简要介绍他们的研究成果，让科学家们了解他们的研究领域。参观的实验室将取决于团队成员的研究兴趣，每个地点有一天的时间。处于相同职业生涯阶段的日本同事将于2003年9月24日至10月4日访问美国的大学。他们旅行的形式将是类似的，一个讲习班，然后是实地考察。美日两国科学家在其学术生涯的早期阶段建立的联系将为长期富有成效的合作奠定基础，使成功的全球跨学科努力的可能性最大化。除了演讲者之外，预计还有几位大学同事将参加在麻省理工学院和日本举行的研讨会。这种接触将直接转化为研究生的教育，可能作为访问学生或博士后研究员。研究小组的本科生也将从这一经历中受益。这个项目的一个附带好处是让美国和日本的科学家在他们自己的小组中参与研究项目。
