During the kick-off meeting that was held in Brussels (6/5/11) the MC decided that during the first year (1/7/11-30-6-12) the Action will offer 4 short term scientific missions (STSM). STSM will allow participants, members of their groups or other interested individuals to visit laboratories participating in the Action to learn new techniques, transfer know-how or work on collaborative projects. Participation of early stage researchers in STSM is particularly encouraged. For more information please go to http://www.cost.esf.org/about_cost/cost_stories/Short-Term-Scientific-Missions
No deadline is set for applications for STSM and applications are accepted year round. If you are interested in learning more about STSM contact the Chair/Vice Chair of the Action. Your application will be followed for evaluation by a committee composed by the working group leaders.
