2008 NSF-MEXT YOUNG RESEARCHERS EXCHANGE PROGRAMABSTRACT This proposal seeks support for an innovative exchange program for young scientists and engineers working in the area of nanoscience and nanotechnology. Jointly funded by the United States National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), this program will support fifteen US researchers and thirteen Japanese researchers, by providing a venue to develop professional relationships and explore new research frontiers in nanotechnology. In March 2008, the team from Japan will visit seven US institutions for tours of facilities. The trip will be enhanced by a symposium at Northwestern University with speakers from both the US and Japanese teams. In October 2008, the US team will visit five institutions in Japan for reciprocal tours of facilities and a final symposium. The US and Japan recognize the potential widespread impact of prospective applications resulting from the pioneering research being conducted in the broad arenas of nanoscience and nanotechnology. Additionally, both countries recognize that multi- and inter-disciplinary teams facilitate research success and that constructive research and training efforts in this emerging field must span international boundaries. The proposed program addresses these needs by engaging researchers at a time in their careers when professional connections are being forged. It lays a foundation for lasting, productive future associations, and increases the likelihood of successful global research collaborations and outcomes. Further educational benefits are realized through the symposiums, which are open to academic communities in both countries

2008年nsf - next青年研究人员交流计划摘要：本提案旨在为在纳米科学和纳米技术领域工作的年轻科学家和工程师提供创新的交流计划。该项目由美国国家科学基金会（NSF）和日本教育、文化、体育、科学和技术省（MEXT）联合资助，将为15名美国研究人员和13名日本研究人员提供支持，为发展专业关系和探索纳米技术的新研究领域提供场所。2008年3月，日本代表团将访问美国7所机构，参观设施。此次访问将在美国西北大学（Northwestern University）举行的研讨会上得到加强，届时将有来自美国和日本团队的演讲者。2008年10月，美国代表团将访问日本的五个机构，相互参观设施，并举行最后的研讨会。美国和日本认识到在纳米科学和纳米技术的广泛领域进行的开创性研究所产生的前瞻性应用的潜在广泛影响。此外，两国都认识到，多学科和跨学科团队有助于研究成功，这一新兴领域的建设性研究和培训工作必须跨越国际边界。拟议的项目通过在研究人员的职业生涯中建立专业联系的时候吸引他们来满足这些需求。它为持久的、富有成效的未来合作奠定了基础，并增加了成功的全球研究合作和成果的可能性。通过对两国学术界开放的研讨会，进一步实现了教育效益
