Short-Term Scientific Mission (STSM) consists in a visit of a host organization located in a different country than the country of affiliation by a Researcher or Innovator for the specific work to be carried out and for a determined period of time.

​

Short-Term Scientific Missions benefit to:
• STSM Grantee: receives funding for implementing a project with an international team and gains new knowledge or access to equipment or techniques not available in the home institution;
• STSM Host: receives an international partner in their institution and can develop long lasting collaboration.

​

STSM should specifically contribute to the research coordination and capacity building objectives of the IRENE COST Action CA18118 outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
