  3. Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions: Supports research mobility and career development for individuals.
  4. European Innovation Council (EIC): Funds innovative projects and startups.
  5. National funding agencies: Many European countries have their own funding agencies, like the UK’s Research Councils or Germany’s DFG.
  6. EU-funded research projects: Collaborate with institutions already receiving EU funding.
  7. Cost Action: Funds networking activities, like workshops and conferences.
  8. Erasmus Mundus: Supports joint master’s and doctoral programs.
