Guidelines for submitting STSM applications within the PSY-NET network have been published. Short-Term Scientific Missions are exchange visits designed to strengthen collaboration between COST Action members.
What Are STSMs?
Short-Term Scientific Missions (STSMs) allow researchers to visit an institution or laboratory in another COST Member Country to foster collaboration, learn new techniques, or access equipment not available at their home institution. These missions typically last between 5 and 90 days.
Eligibility
- Must be affiliated with an institution in a COST Member Country participating in the Action
- Early-career investigators are particularly encouraged to apply
- The host institution must be in a different country than the applicant’s home institution
How to Apply
- Identify a host institution and agree on the research plan
- Submit your application through the e-COST platform
- Applications are reviewed by the STSM Committee
- Successful applicants receive a grant to cover travel and subsistence costs
