[DMANET] Travel Grants (STSMs) on Kidney Exchange Programmes

There are a number of travel grants available from the COST Action on Kidney Exchange Programmes (ENCKEP). Under this scheme you can apply for a grant for a "Short-Term Scientific Mission" (STSM), i.e., a research visit to another country, related to kidney exchange programmes. In particular, this includes work on optimisation and the mathematical aspects of kidney exchange matching.

This is mostly intended for researchers based in Europe visiting institutions in other European countries, but there are some exceptions. For full details, see:
http://www.enckep-cost.eu/page/scientific-missions/guidelines

We especially encourage PhD students and early stage researchers to apply.

The current application deadline is 15th June. You can apply for trips starting between 1st August and 31st December 2017, and finishing by mid-April 2018.

Please read carefully the guidelines given on the website (especially the page called Application Procedure) before applying.
