The COST Action QOpen – Many-Body Open Quantum Systems invites applications for Short-Term Scientific Missions (STSMs).
STSMs support short research visits between institutions participating in QOpen, with the aim of fostering collaboration, knowledge exchange and scientific progress within the Action.
As in the previous call, applications requesting up to €1,000 will be prioritised, although grants of up to €2,000 may be awarded when adequately justified.
Deadlines: applications are considered in two rounds — 31 August 2026 and 15 September 2026.
All STSMs funded through this call must be completed by 15 October 2026.
How to Apply: applications must be submitted online via the COST e-services platform: https://e-services.cost.eu — In e-COST: COST Actions → My Grant Applications → Apply for Grant → Short-Term Scientific Mission (STSM).
We particularly encourage applications from Young Researchers and Innovators and from Inclusiveness Target Countries, in line with COST’s inclusiveness objectives.
