Researchmap is a service operated by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) that aims to collect and share information about Japanese researchers, as well as provide a platform for information exchange among researchers. It offers a range of products and services to facilitate this goal. With Researchmap, users can easily search for researchers, their achievements, and communities they are part of.

The platform also provides updates on researchmap-related news, including press releases and informational documents. For institutions interested in testing the features of researchmap, a trial site is available, offering the opportunity to create test data and confirm functionality. The trial site allows users to create test data and conduct thorough testing, ensuring that the features of researchmap are properly understood and utilized.

With a user-friendly web interface and API access, the trial site enables users to explore and experiment with the various features of researchmap. However, it is important to note that the trial site has lower machine specifications compared to the production environment, so excessive data updates and high access volumes should be avoided. Additionally, during maintenance periods, the trial site may be temporarily unavailable.

Overall, researchmap is an invaluable resource for researchers and institutions looking to connect, collaborate, and stay updated in the world of Japanese research
