Call for STSM and Virtual Mobility Grants

Share

We announce a new call for the Short Term Scientific Mission (STSM) grants and Virtual Mobility Grants.

Short-Term Scientific Mission Grants fund a visit to a host organization located in a country different from the country of affiliation by a researcher or innovator for specific work to be carried out and for a determined period of time. Maximum funds: €4,000 (depending on duration and other costs according to own calculation)

Virtual Mobility Grants support online collaborations on specific or general topics that can help achieving the Action MoU objectives and deliverables (research coordination). The outcomes should contribute to the visibility and impact of the COST Actions. Maximum funds: €1,500

Grants can start after 16 March 2026 and must be completed by 10 September 2026.

Application opening: 16 February 2026

Please, note that due to a large interest in the STSM and Virtual Mobility grants so far, the processing of the applications may be delayed until mid-June 2026.
