| Experiments are mainly performed on isolated mouse cardiomyocytes (WT and KOs). We have been using earlier rat and trout cardiomyocytes as well. As a preparation we use either intact cells or saponin-permiabilized cells. From the techniques routinely used in the lab: oxygraphy (Strathkelvin with custom software); absorbance and fluorescence spectrophotometers; confocal [imaging and FCS/RICS] and fluorescence microscopy. Fluorescence microscopy is running on our custom software allowing us to combine fluorescence imaging with single cell mechanics (control over cell mechanical contraction via carbon fibers) and patch clamping (electrophysiology). [WG2] | |||
In addition to wet lab, we have experience and are actively developing mathematical models of different aspects of heart function: bioenergetics, mechanical contraction, and electrophysiology [WG2]. Finally, all experiments are monitored via database developed in the lab. [WG1] | |||

COST criteria for evaluation of STSM applications
Aims and scope of a STSM
- 1. Support individual mobility.
- 2. Specifically contribute to the scientific objectives of MitoEAGLE.
- 3. Strengthen the MitoAGLE network.
- 4. Foster collaborations by allowing researchers participating in the COST Action MitoEAGLE to visit an institution/organisation in
- another participating COST Country;
- an approved Near Neighbour Country institution - Sameh S Ali
- an approved International Partner Country institution - IPC institutions are not yet approved in MitoEAGLE.
- 5. Learn new techniques.
- 6. Gain access to specific data, methods and instruments not available in the home institutions / organisations.
Researchers eligible for a STSM
- PhD students and Early Career Investigators (up to 8 years after the date of obtaining the PhD/doctorate, full-time equivalent) have priority.
- Senior scientists.
- We particularly encourage the application of researchers from “inclusiveness target countries” (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, FYR Macedonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Turkey).
- Gender balance will be monitored.
- Researchers are eligible to receive a STSM Grant if the country where they hold their primary affiliation is listed here: http://www.cost.eu/COST_Actions/ca/CA15203?parties.
- The home institution is the institution / organisation where the STSM applicant holds their primary affiliation as registered on their e-COST profile / STSM application / C.V. and where they are currently performing their main strand of research.
- The host institution concerns the institution / organisation that will host the successful applicant.
Funding regulations
- STSM in which practical science is getting carried out.
- STSM which directly lead to tangible outcomes (e.g. writing papers/grants).
- Funding rule in section 7 of the COST Vademecum.
- The money will be returned AFTER the Grantee has completed her/his visit and submitted a report (a written report on the activities carried out during the STSM within 30 days of the end of the research visit)
- Note: STSM grantees must make their own arrangements for all provisions related to personal security, health, social security and pension matters.
Funding regulations
- Researchers from Participating Inclusiveness Target Country (ITC) can receive 50% of the grant upon completion of the 1st day of the STSM
- Early Career Investigators (PhD + 8 years)
- allows for:
- an extended time frame of between 91 days and 180 days
How to apply for a STSM
- Interested researchers have to submit their application and supporting documents to the STSM Coordinator:Magdalena Labieniec-Watala
Supporting documents
- Letter of invitation to the applicant from a senior researcher affiliated to the host institution.
- The submitted STSM application form (downloadable when the online application is submitted – see point 4 below).
- Motivation letter including an overview of the proposed activities that will be performed which must contain a plan of work for the visit highlighting the proposed contribution to the scientific objectives of MitoEAGLE.
- Letter of support from the home institution.
- Full C.V. (including a list of academic publications – if applicable).
Application process
- Read the funding rules in Section 7 of the COST Vademecum: »Guidelines
- Register for an e-COST profile at https://e-services.cost.eu/ - add your bank account details to your profile.
- Include in your application a letter of invitation from the host institution confirming that the host can undertake the STSM on the given dates. The final dates of the STSMs have to be negotiated between the applicant and the host.
- Complete, submit and download your STSM application online at: www.cost.eu/STSM.
- Send the submitted STSM application form and the supporting documents to the STSM Coordinator:

EE | Tallinn University of Technology | Vendelin M, Birkedal R | WG1, WG2 | Experiments are mainly performed on isolated mouse cardiomyocytes (WT and KOs).

From the techniques routinely used in the lab: oxygraphy (Strathkelvin with custom software); absorbance and fluorescence spectrophotometers; confocal [imaging and FCS/RICS] and fluorescence microscopy. Fluorescence microscopy is running on our custom software allowing us to combine fluorescence imaging with single cell mechanics (control over cell mechanical contraction via carbon fibers) and patch clamping (electrophysiology). [WG2]
In addition to wet lab, we have experience and are actively developing mathematical models of different aspects of heart function: bioenergetics, mechanical contraction, and electrophysiology [WG2]. Finally, all experiments are monitored via database developed in the lab. [WG1] |
