Plan (from the application):

Visits

Each year two scientist from Sweden will visit Japan and two Japanese scientists will visit Sweden to work together and be trained in various techniques. The length of the visits will be about two weeks. Here follows a preliminary schedule for these visits and preliminary agendas.

2009/09From CBRC to Stockholm “Topology prediction of membrane proteins.”
2010/03Stockholm to Nagoya “ N/C-terminal localization of MBOMPs”
2010/09Nagoya to Stockholm “Homology modeling of membrane proteins”
2011/03Stockholm to CBRC “Identification of patterns in multiple alignments”
2011/09CBRC to Stockholm “Modeling of protein-protein interactions”
2012/03 Stockholm to Nagoya “Cross-linking experimental techniques”
2012/08 Japan to Stockholm “Project wrap-up and discussion of future”

Retreats/meetings:

In addition to the general discussions and the exchange of scientists a number of workshops will be arranged. These will be open for the public and at each workshop at least one researcher from the other side will be invited to present their work. The workshops in Stockholm will be co-organized with a workshop organized by an EU-funded project (TRANSSYS) and only the costs for the Japanese visitors will be taken from this grant. The mini-symposium at CBRC will be held at the AIST facility in Tokyo which we can use without fee.
