LIMMS (Laboratory for Integrated Micro Mechatronic Systems) is a joint laboratory established in The Institute of Industrial Science IIS-The University of Tokyo in 1995 based on a research agreement between French CNRS and the University of Tokyo. After nine years of successful operation, LIMMS has been upgraded to the first International Joint Unit  (UMI-Unité Mixte Internationale) of CNRS in Asia in 2004, thereby obtaining an official eligibility to apply to EU funding. In December 2011, LIMMS and its EUJO-LIMMS extention became the EU’s first international laboratory in Japan.

LIMMS Office is well known for its experience and know-how in terms of hosting, counting more than 160 hosted researchers in the past 20 years. It provides researchers with a service package ranging from immigration, accommodation, to departure, which is now granted to EUJO-LIMMS researchers as well. 

We hope that you will find this welcome guide helpful and wish you a good installation in Tokyo!
