A "Mirror Lab " is a collaborative framework for researchers from OIST and its partner institutions, establishing a long-term and forward-looking partnership with each institutions’ recognition.
Mirror Labs are flexible in structure but united by their emphasis on:
Joint research and training
Promoting academic/academic-industry collaborations
Regular interaction between faculty, students, and staff between OIST and the mirror lab partners
Shared growth of early-career researchers by creating an ecosystem
Shared practices including administrative practice (recruitment, grant applications, etc.)
Visibility and strategic positioning for both partners for joint programs and funding
"Mirror Labs" have similar, but not identical, structures on each side. Two or more partners work together and benefit from each others expertise.
