COST – European Cooperation in Science and Technology was founded in 1971, and since then, it has been a leading platform for research and innovation in Europe. The main objective of COST is to foster scientific excellence and promote cross-border collaboration in various fields such as health, agriculture, environment, and technology.
The impact of COST on European research cannot be overstated. Over the years, COST has funded numerous research projects that have led to groundbreaking discoveries, innovations, and advancements in various fields. COST has also provided a unique platform for scientists from different countries and disciplines to exchange knowledge and ideas, fostering a culture of collaboration that has been essential for driving progress.
