■ 日米ワークショップ「科学における協力と生産性」
日時: 2010年3月26日(金)9.15-18.10
会場: コンファレンススクエアM+ 10階「ミドル2」(千代田区丸の内、三菱ビル)
主催: 一橋大学イノベーション研究センター、文部科学省科学技術政策研究所、
米国ジョージア工科大学
協力: 全米科学財団(NSF)
本ワークショップでは、イノベーション研究センターが科学技術政策研究所と協力して実施した、日本の科学者サーベイの暫定結果概要を報告し、また日米の著名な科学者からそれぞれの研究のマネジメントについて、および科学における協力と生産性の関係についての先端的な研究成果の報告を頂きました。これらの報告をベースに、今後日本で行うサーベイを利用した研究への指針を得るべく、各セッション毎、活発な議論が交されました。
