COST Call for Short-Term Scientific Missions (STSM)

COST Action CA15112 - Functional Annotation of Animal Genomes - European network (FAANG - Europe)

Summary

We are looking to fund short - term scientific missions to develop linkages and scientific collaborations between participating institutions involved in the FAANG COST Action.

Objective

FAANG - Europe aims to establish a collaborative framework to enable functional annotation of animal genomes as well as to develop a shared research agenda to deliver improved functional annotation of animal genomes. STSM should contribute to this aim as well as to train research scientists and students in a) assays by sequencing, b) analysis of functional sequence data, c) use of annotated genome sequences and functional annotation data.

Important note: FAANG - Europe does not cover expenses related with research experiments, only funds the mobility of researchers (accommodation and travel expenses).

Deadline: September 8th 2017
