The application deadline is September 30, 2010 for a start date of on or before March 31, 2011.
AIST is the largest national laboratory in Japan and over 3,000 researchers (including over 500 foreign researchers) conduct cutting-edge research in areas such as Environment, Energy, Life sciences, Biotechnology, Information technology, Electronics, Nanotechnology, Materials, Metrology and measurement science, and Applied geosciences. This is an excellent opportunity for graduate students and beginning postdocs to gain international research experience.
