At L-INSIGHT, we encourage the exploration of possibilities for interdisciplinary research. Research that seeks to bring about breakthroughs in social issues and academic research leads researchers to collaborate across fields.

In this contest, you can obtain funding to take the first step toward launching your research by conceiving such research and presenting its appeal.

The Grand Prize-winning team will receive 1 million yen, and the Jury Prize-winning team will receive 500,000 yen (including travel and conference expenses). Team members may include not only L-INSIGHT Fellows but also graduate students recommended by Fellows and faculty members from the universities where Fellows are affiliated. Please present an exciting vision that inspires the realization of your ideas.
