- Strengthening existing networks
- Fostering collaboration between researchers
- Learning new techniques
- Gaining access to: specific data, methods and instruments
Eligible persons to apply for a STSM
- PhD students and Early Career Investigators (up to 8 years after the date of obtaining the PhD/doctorate, full-time equivalent) have priority.
- Senior scientists.
- We particularly encourage the application of researchers from βinclusiveness target countriesβ (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, FYR Macedonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Turkey).
- Gender balance will be monitored.
STSM duration

Funding priorities
- Early Career Investigators (ECI)
- STSM in which practical science is getting carried out
- STSM which directly lead to tangible outcomes (e.g. writing papers/grants).
- The money will be returned AFTER the Grantee has completed her/his visit and submitted a report (a written report on the activities carried out during the STSM within 30 days of the end of the research visit)
Note: STSM Grantees must make their own arrangements for all provisions related to personal security, health, social security and pension matters
