JST has signed an agreement for the CHORUS Japan Dashboard Service with CHOR, Inc., a US based non-profit organization, to monitor public accessibility of content reporting on JST-funded research.

CHOR, Inc. is a non-profit membership global organization that promotes and supports perpetual public access to content reporting on funded research by leveraging existing and emergent digital technology used by scholarly publishing organizations and others in the scholarly community. CHOR’s members collectively produce the vast majority of published peer-reviewed journal articles.

The agreement comes after a successful pilot project performed from July 2016 to May 2017. This JST agreement is CHORUS’ first international agency agreement.

JST, an integrated organization of science and technology in Japan, establishes an infrastructure for the entire process from the creation of knowledge to the return to the society. For more information, visit http://www.jst.go.jp/EN/
