Science Tokyo aim to promote work-life balance by enabling researchers to continue their work while raising children. To this end, we will provide financial assistance for some or all transportation expenses incurred when children must accompany their parent on academic business trips. This support applies in cases where a researcher would be unable to attend academic conferences, research meetings, etc. without bringing their children, potentially hindering their research activities.

Both Science and Engineering and Medical and Dental Science are eligible for use.
