JSPS provides fellowship programs for overseas researchers who have an excellent record of research achievements to conduct collaborative research, discussions, and opinion exchanges with researchers in Japan.
The programs are intended to help advance the overseas researchers' research activities while promoting science and internationalization in Japan.
The “JSPS International Fellowships for Research in Japan” consists of two programs: “Postdoctoral Fellowships for Research in Japan” for young researchers and “Invitational Fellowships for Research in Japan” for mid-career and senior researchers.
Host researchers, except for those under Pathway fellowships, are required to use the JSPS Electronic
Application System when applying for fellowships.
