This Research Council of Norway funding supports doctoral and postdoctoral fellows in Norway who want to take a research stay at a host institution abroad. It covers individual applicants rather than consortia, and applications are accepted on a continuous basis rather than tied to a single annual deadline. The aim is to strengthen the fellow's career development and build international networks that feed back into Norwegian research.
