- Collaboration with research and educational institutions in Japan and abroad
- Appointment of talented personnel as project faculty members and visiting researchers
- Provision of ample opportunities for educational and talent exchange
- Organizational structure that is well-suited for dynamic research fields
- Autonomous administration
- Smooth closing upon completion of research objectives (dissolution followed by reorganization, independence, or establishment of a new permanent research organization will be considered)
