The Swedish Research Council (VR) is contributing SEK 1.6 million to STINT’s Joint Japan-Sweden Research Collaboration for the period 2019–2022. This means that a total of SEK 1.6 million is granted to three projects. STINT’s Japanese partner, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS), finances the Japanese participants at an equivalent level.
