JST BOOST Fostering Researchers in Emerging AI Program (Support for Young Researchers) | Kyoto University Office of Research Acceleration

What’s BOOST?

BOOST is a program to promote human resource development and advanced research and development in high-priority national strategic fields. The “Fostering Researchers in Emerging AI Program (Support for Young Researchers)” under BOOST aims to fundamentally strengthen Japan’s international competitiveness by selecting research projects through public calls. These projects are led by outstanding young researchers in the next-generation AI field, including both the conventional areas of AI and the emerging or fusion areas within AI.
