On 18 October, JSPS Bangkok Office organized a JSPS guidance seminar at Thailand National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA) that is located in Thailand Science Park. This is the second seminar since 2014, and two organizations, Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) and Japan-ASEAN Science, Technology and Innovation Platform (JASTIP), also joined the seminar.<\/p>\n

NSTDA is supervised by Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) and is responsible for developing S&T in the nation including research development, technology transfer and human resource development. Four NSTDA affiliated institutions, National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (BIOTEC), National Metal and Materials Technology Center (MTEC), National Electronics and Computer Technology Center (NECTEC), and National Nanotechnology Center (NANOTEC), are also in the science park.<\/p>\n

Before the seminar, we made a courtesy visit to Dr. Chadamas Thuvasethakul, Executive Vice President for Policy Research, Information and Organization Communications of NSTDA, together with Mr. Masaki Sato, Director of JST Singapore Office, Mr. Yoshihide Kobayashi, Chief of JST Singapore Office and e-ASIA Special Program Coordinator of e-ASIA JRP Secretariat Office, and Assoc.
