This second joint call between CNRS and the University of Tokyo (UTokyo) resulted in the submission of a dozen high-quality projects. A joint selection committee chaired by Nobuhito SAITO, executive vice-president of UTokyo, and Alain SCHUHL, CNRS Deputy CEO for Science , selected the five projects in the fields of seismology, physics and engineering.
The CNRS initiates bilateral dialogues with major players in world research through “PhD Joint Programmes” allowing the financing of doctoral scholarships and mobility over 3 years between the two teams.
