Information session on COST

The FCT will hold an informational session via webstreaming on COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) on April 3, starting at 10:30 a.m.

COST's mission is to support the creation of transnational cooperation networks between researchers across Europe, so that they can freely, openly, and jointly develop their ideas and initiatives. These networks, called COST Actions, enable advances in the development of scientific knowledge and the training of their participants. Portugal is a success story in COST, from which more than 1,000 national researchers currently benefit, participating in more than 95% of active Actions.

The national scientific community is invited to participate in this session via webstreaming, which is open to anyone interested in clarifying their questions about the program.
