IVR was first designated as Joint Usage\/ Research Center for Fusion of Advanced Technologies and Innovative Approaches to Viral Infections and Life Science in June 2009, and was reappointed this year.<br \/>\nSince the first designation, IVR has diligently promoted the projects as the Joint Usage\/Research Center, and inFront, as a new institute, continues the projects until FY2021. 2021 will be the final year.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, inFront calls for proposals for joint research projects in the following three research areas.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"stit\">1.
