Science Crosspoint Award
Overview
The Science Crosspoint Award aims to promote interdisciplinary research projects that leverage the Institute’s diverse fields by providing financial support via the Science Tokyo Fund to selected interdisciplinary research teams.
Previously known as the “Interdisciplinary Research Support for Scientists Program,” which was limited to science and engineering teams until fiscal 2022, the program was revised and expanded to include doctoral students after the integration of Tokyo Tech and TMDU.
