Motivation edit
The e-Rad researcher number, a.k.a. KAKENHI researcher number, is a life-long identifier for applicants (mostly in the academic sector) of government-based research funding in Japan. The linked database proposed above only contains information related to KAKENHI grants-in-aid, the general purpose scientific research funding from the Japanese government; however, I guess there's no better alternative covering all government-based fundings. It would be useful to see area of expertise, activity in terms of funding, etc. Mzaki (talk) 10:57, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- fixed the English translation (e-Rad researcher ID → e-Rad researcher number) based on an e-Rad document in English. --Mzaki (talk) 08:30, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
