Third STSM Call

Dear colleagues,

We are delighted to announce the opening of the 3rd call for Short Term Scientific Missions (STSM) of the COST Action MiCropBiomes: Exploiting Plant-Microbiomes Networks and Synthetic Communities to Improve Crops’ Fitness. We are now receiving applications for STSM due to take place between December 1, 2024, and August 31, 2025.

The deadline for application is 20th October 2024.

Generally, STSM are:

  • Exchange visits between researchers involved in a COST Action, allowing scientists to visit an institution or laboratory in another COST country;
  • Aimed at fostering collaboration, sharing new techniques and infrastructure that may not be available in other participants’ institutions or laboratories;
  • Minimum of 5 calendar days.

The financial contribution for such a STSM will be a fixed grant based on the applicant’s budget request and the evaluation of the application by the Grant Awarding Committee (max. 4000 € in total, covering travel and subsistence, i.e., accommodation and meal expenses).

For more information about the application and evaluation procedure, please consult our website.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.

With kind regards,
Ralf Koebnik (WG5 Vice Leader)
Ivan Nikolić (Grant Awarding Coordinator)
