The main objectives of J·FR 2021 are to create a social event about Research in all fields (Sciences, Applied Sciences, SHS, etc.) and Technologies, and to enforce discussions among the audience.
This is an opportunity for all actors in research and development in Japan (companies, researchers, students, institutional, etc.), to meet community of French-speaking scientist in order to initiate discussions, future projects or collaborations.


Call for Communications

J·FR 2021 offers three main kinds of contributions:

  1. Presentation online (20min including questions)
  2. Flash-talk online (5min including questions)

When submitting a contribution, it is possible to choose a type of contributions (presentation, poster or flash-talk). The Organizing Committee will therefore select the contributions to be presented as presentations or posters according to research topics. J·FR 2021 could also propose flash-talks for some presentation proposals, depending on topics and progress of work (preliminary research work, etc.). An initial choice could therefore be changed from a presentation to a poster or flash-talk, but not the opposite.

Deadline for attendees: Thursday, December 09th, 2021

Language

The main language at J·FR 2021 for presentations and discussions is French.
Presentation Material such as submitted documents, presentation slides or posters can however be written in French or in English.

For non-native speakers or non-fluent in French that are interested by presenting at J·FR 2021, it is still possible to present your research work in English upon requests to the Organizing Committee and its approval. Indeed, the rationale is that J·FR 2021 is also aiming to welcome french-speaking Researchers whatever their level in French, or Researchers that have some background with French Research environment (e.g., those having collaborations with French Institutions -past/present/future-, or having received (or are interested by) Grants or Scholarships from France (BGF, ANR, etc.)

The Organizing Committee is encouraging Researchers, whose level in French is sufficient enough, to prefer French language for submitting documents (Research Summary, Biography) and for their talk.
