Fewer researchers venturing abroad to study

本文 The number of Japanese researchers who spent at least 31 consecutive days overseas studying or conducting research on professional assignments has more than halved in recent years compared with a decade earlier, according to the education ministry.

The total number was roughly 3,700 in fiscal 2008 and 2009, down from a peak of more than 7,600 in fiscal 2000, the Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Ministry said, quoting the results of a recent nationwide survey.

The survey covered researchers belonging to domestic research institutes such as universities or government-backed corporations who were dispatched to foreign universities or research institutes.

The survey results were released a day after Eiichi Negishi, a Purdue University professor who was selected as one of three cowinners of the 2010 Nobel Prize in chemistry, encouraged young researchers and students to go abroad to study.
