Description

A high priority will be given to Short Term Scientific Missions (STSM) in order to establish personal contacts between researchers and more communities in the field of AQC. It will be attributed high priority to Early-Stage Researchers (ESR) and female applicants for gender-balance. The goal is to support the development and validation of specific sensing technologies, models and methods for AQC and to enhance the collaboration between science and industry, COST-partnership and non-COST partners for networking and capacity building. A STSM Evaluation Committee has been created ad-hoc, and nominated by MC, to assess the impact of the scientific visits and their output. Budget has been allocated to STSM for exchange of students, early-researchers and senior scientists between the participating research groups. Calls for Tenders of STSM will be regularly planned during the Action. A motivation and a simple visit-plan should be submitted to the Training & Knowledge Transfer Coordinator, who will present the current applications of highest quality to the MC. Depending on the available budget, the MC will decide which applications should be granted.

Objectives:

Selection of Applicants for Short-Term Scientific Missions (STSM).

Activities:

Selection of STSM applicants from Action and reporting to MC.

Deliverables (MoU):

To select excellent STSM applicants from Action.
