Science Council of Japan
The Science Council of Japan (SCJ) is representative organization of Japanese scholars and scientists in all fields of sciences, including humanities, social sciences, life sciences, natural sciences, and engineering. Takashi Onishi, President of Toyohashi Tech, is the elected president in 2014. He had been elected for two consecutive terms since 2013. It is headquartered at Roppongi, Minato-ku in Tokyo. Members are elected by scientists of all levels, including research scholars. Elected members are recognised by the Government of Japan, similar in pattern to membership in the National Academy of Sciences in USA, upon which its institution was based. It was in fact established as American policy following US occupation of Japan after the World War II. It was inaugurated in January 1949 as to function independent as a scientific statuitory body under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister.
As of 2015, the Science Council of Japan consists of 210 elected members (appointed by the Prime Minister) and 2,000 associate members. Its organisational set up includes a General Assembly, an Executive Board, three Section Meetings (namely Humanities and Social Sciences, Life Sciences, and Physical Sciences and Engineering), 30 committees based on fields of specialties, five Administrative Committees for operation, and issue-oriented ad hoc committees.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.preventionweb.net/organizations/3320 )〕
==History==
The Science Council of Japan was founded by Harry C. Kelley during the American occupation of Japan after the World War II. A former Professor of Physics at the Lehigh University, Kelley was working in the American occupation forces. He was appointed as the civilian chief of the Fundamental Research Branch, and was subsequently appointed its associate director. His first achievement was creation of the Japan Association of Science Liaison, a private organisation. The organisation was developed into the Preparatory Committee (Sewaninkai) of the Scientific Research Organisation Renewal Committee.〔 It was eventually renamed Science Council of Japan, and became constituted under the Government of Japan in 1949 as a "special organisation".〔 It was formally inaugurated on 20 January with its first general meeting.
