Nanotechnology and Materials Science The WPI Program (World Premier International Research Center Initiative Program) by MEXT provides priority support for projects creating world-top level research centers with “global visibility” that attract top researchers from all over the world. NIMS is one of five Japanese institutions selected in FY 2007. WPI program supports the five institutions for 10-15 years to achieve Today, the world demands problem-solving research that focuses on numerous • a critical mass of outstanding researchers (top-level researchers) problems associated with the global environment, energy, and resources. Here, • an attractive research environment the development of innovative materials will be essential if the sustainable so- ciety that such research envisions is to be realized. Nanotechnology (nanotech) Host institution WPI research center Research fields Advanced Institute for Materials is an innovative technology that is advancing with increasing speed as the early Tohoku University Materials Science 21st century moves forward.

Even so, it cannot be said that nanotech has Kyoto University Meso-Control Stem Cells (iCeMS) Prof. Teruo Kishi progressed as originally anticipated. Nanotech, as a field, must undergo a para- NIMS President digm shift if it is to get back on track. We believe that the application of a new Osaka University Immunology Frontier Research Center (IFReC) Immunology National Institute for International Center for Materials nanotech framework known as “materials nanoarchitectonics” will trigger this Nanotechnology & Materials Science paradigm shift. We also believe that materials nanoarchitectonics will deliver a Materials Science Nanoarchitectonics (MANA) continuing series of new materials and devices with hitherto unimagined func- tions that will create innovations which will inject new life into industry. Goal of MANA The goal of the MANA concept is not only to develop MANA into a world-top-level research center in the field of nanotechnology/nanomaterials within 10 years, but also to ensure that NIMS itself evolves into the world’s top materials research institute with MANA. MANA and NIMS will develop innovative materials that contribute to realize a sustainable society in the 21st century. The National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) has been selected to par- ticipate in the World Premier International (WPI) Research Center Initiative of Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). NIMS MANA In October 2007, NIMS has launched a new center entitled “International Cen- R&D achievements Establishment of nanoarchitectonics Contribution to fundamental science, New paradigm for materials science ter for Materials Nanoarchitectonics” (MANA). Indeed, MANA was established development of practical materials with the aim of becoming a visible “world-class research center for nanotech Top-level facilities Convergence of 5 key technologies and nanomaterial research” that would bring together top researchers from Nano-foundries, dedicated synchrotron radiation beamline, etc. in nanoarchitectonics around the world and that leading researchers would aspire to visit as well as Extensive international collaborations Further strengthening of be a part of.

It has become the largest Science City in Japan resulting from the systematic transfer and new establishment of national research, educational and other institutions from Tokyo as well as the maintenance of city facilities and the implementation of private companies. Currently, Tsukuba Science City has 29 national, semi-national and other research and educational institutions such as Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), University of Tsukuba, and various private research centers and other institutions.About 20,000 researchers are working on various research projects at these institutions.
