  • Abstract
    The number and percentage of female researchers in Japan is very low than other developed countries. How to give them effective support has becoming a noticeable topic in recently years. We design a Web community for female researchers which has a community function to promote their communication, a role model function to encourage them to continue their research work. The study is ongoing and future plans are mentioned.
