The National Institute for Basic Biology (NIBB) formed an agreement with the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research (MPIZ) in April 2009 to start a new initiative aimed at stimulating academic and scholarly exchange in the field of plant sciences.
In accordance with this agreement NIBB and MPIZ will work together to plan and promote joint research projects, collaborative symposia, training courses and student exchange programs. It is the aim of NIBB to use this collaborative research program as an opportunity to provide access to the international scientific community and allow researchers throughout Japan to benefit from this broadened technological and personal exchange. In order to achieve these goals NIBB will act as a bridge between Japanese and German researchers in the field of plant sciences.
