MIRAI-DX

This program will also support the activities of research groups using MIRAI-DX (see below). If the research started with the use of MIRAI-DX, please put a check in the application form.

【MIRAI-DX】

A "DX platform for URA collaboration" in which URAs (including occupations similar to URA) of research universities participating in the Research University Consortium are registered. The purpose is to generate joint research beyond the boundaries of fields and organizations by exchanging information with URAs of other universities using cross-sectional access to public information, etc. of registered researchers registered in various databases while the URAs support the researchers.
URAs from universities other than the Research University Consortium can also participate (limited to URAs (including occupations similar to URA; for details, please contact miraidx@nins.jp).
