description Abstract The joint workshop between U.S. and Japanese researchers, supported by The U.S.–Japan Brain Research Cooperative Program, convened in January 2023 at Keio University Mita campus in Tokyo, Japan. The workshop had a threefold objective. Firstly, it aimed to facilitate robust exchanges between U.S. and Japanese researchers engaged in Neurovascular Unit (NVU) research, enhancing the global network of scholars in the field. Secondly, it aimed to encourage the initiation of collaborative research projects, fostering interdisciplinary efforts and synergistic advancements in understanding the brain vascular physiology and central nervous system. Lastly, the workshop emphasized the nurturing of young researchers, recognizing their pivotal role in shaping the future of NVU research. Throughout the workshop, participants discussed fundamental aspects of the NVU, exploring its complex connections and vital functions. By sharing their expertise and insights, the workshop attendees sought to uncover novel approaches to mitigate the burden of neurological diseases for individuals worldwide. This report provides a summary of the presentations and discussions held during the workshop, showcasing the collective efforts and progress made by the participants.
