Title

FJNS commits to resolving global nutritional challenges by supporting and empowering personnel, especially young researchers and health professionals, who can bridge research-based evidence to practice. To achieve this, by 2030, FJNS will organize and support research and training programmes through its member society activities primarily aimed at young professionals in Japan and other countries.

Description

More than 300 individuals are expected to participate in research grants, e-learning programmes, practical education programmes, overseas research fellowships, etc., organised through member society activities, primarily for young professionals in Japan as well as other countries. Progress will be reported at symposia and workshops held during the International Congress of Nutrition and the Asian Congress of Nutrition to provide information and to recruit new candidates.
