Title:Postdoctoral Fellowship for Foreign Researchers
 Sponsor:Japan Society for the Promotion of Science

This program was established to assist promising and highly qualified young foreign researchers wishing to conduct research in Japan. It is aimed at providing opportunities for such researchers to, under the guidance of their hosts, conduct cooperative research with leading research groups in universities and other Japanese institutions, thereby permitting them to advance their own research while stimulating Japanese academic circles, particularly young Japanese researchers, through close collaboration in scientific activities. Such collaboration is also intended to advance scientific research in the counterpart countries. (Fellowships are awarded for a period of 12 to 24 months.)

Title:Japan Society Fellowship Program for US Researchers
 Sponsor:Social Science Research Council

The Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) Fellowship Program for U.S. Researchers provides promising and highly qualified recent PhDs (and ABDs—please see eligibility) with opportunities to conduct research in Japan. JSPS guidelines target the applicant who wishes to conduct cooperative research under the leadership of a host researcher, thereby advancing the Fellow's own research and at the same time stimulating Japanese academic circles through close collaboration with young Japanese researchers. Applications are welcome from all social science and humanities disciplines and need not be explicitly related to the study of Japan. Projects must include work with colleagues and resources in Japan and propose a single, continuous stay in Japan from 3 to 11 months or 12 to 24 months.

Title:Developing Global Scientists and Engineers
 Sponsor:The National Science Foundation

The National Science Foundation seeks proposals for the Developing Global Scientists and Engineers program. This solicitation describes support for International Research Experiences for Students (IRES) at the undergraduate and graduate level and support for Doctoral Dissertation Enhancement Projects (DDEP). Applicable areas are biological sciences, computer science, engineering, mathematical and physical sciences, and social behavioral and economic sciences. An anticipated funding amount of $900,000 annually will be disbursed through ~20 awards. In addition to the activities described in this solicitation, the Office of International Science and Engineering supports other targeted international research and education experiences for early-career scientists and engineers via the Research Experience for Undergraduates program, the East Asia and Pacific Summer Institutes for U.S. Graduate Students, the Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (for advanced graduate students and post-doctoral fellows), and the International Research Fellowship Program (for post-doctoral fellows or new faculty).

Title:International Dissertation Research Fellowship
 Sponsor:Social Science Research Council

The International Dissertation Research Fellowship (IDRF) program supports distinguished graduate students in the humanities and social sciences conducting dissertation research outside the United States. Fifty fellowships will be awarded in 2007 with funds provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The IDRF program is committed to scholarship that advances knowledge about non-U.S. cultures and societies grounded in empirical and site-specific research (involving fieldwork, research in archival or manuscript collections, or quantitative data collection). The program promotes research that is at once located in a specific discipline and geographical region and engaged with interdisciplinary and cross-regional perspectives. The program is administered by the Social Science Research Council in partnership with the American Council of Learned Societies.

Title:INew Perspectives on Chinese Culture and Society (Workshop Support)
 Sponsor:American Council of Learned Societies - Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation for Scholarly Exchange (CCK)

The American Council of Learned Societies, in cooperation with the Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation for Scholarly Exchange, has announced a program of support for conferences and publications on New Perspectives on Chinese Culture and Society. The program will award funds in support of planning meetings, workshops, and/or conferences leading to publication of scholarly volumes. The program is intended to support projects that bridge disciplinary or geographic boundaries, engage new kinds of information, develop fresh approaches to traditional materials and issues, or otherwise bring innovative perspectives to the study of Chinese culture and society. The program will support collaborative work of three types:
• Grants of up to $25,000 will be offered to support formal research conferences intended to produce significant new research published in a conference volume.
• Grants of up to $15,000 will be offered for support of workshops or seminars designed to less formally facilitate new research on newly available or inadequately researched problems, data, or texts.
• Grants of up to $6,000 will be offered for planning meetings to organizers of the above-described types of projects.
