Short-term scientific missions (STSMs) aim to support the capacity building and transfer of knowledge through bilateral/multilateral collaborations that can help achieve the Action MoU objectives and deliverables.
STSM consists of a visit of a host organisation, located in a different country than the country of affiliation, by a Researcher or Innovator (under the age of 40) to learn new techniques and gain access to specific data, instruments, or methods not available in their institutions/organisations.
The application for an STMS to the ML4Microbiome COST Action has to specifically contribute to its scientific aims and Working Groups objectives.
Typical outcomes are spin-off publications and (funded) projects that contribute to the visibility and impact of the COST Action, encouraging other researchers to join.
To apply for an STMS, the applicant has to access the e-COST portal and create an e-COST profile (if needed).
Funded by the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme of the European Union.
