2021 Korea’s invitation programs (BP, BP+)

The MSIT (Ministry of Science and ICT) and NRF (National Research Foundation of Korea) launched the Brain Pool Program (BP Program) and the Brain Pool Plus Program (BP+ Program). These programs are designed to invite overseas outstanding scientists for the enhancement of research competence through joint research in R&D fields in Korea, and to build a global cooperative research network more efficiently.
