Subsistence costs: €1750 per month for an experienced researcher or €2000 per month for a full professor.

Travel costs: The maximum amount of grant depends on the country in which the researcher is appointed. For researchers based in Europe the maximum is €500, for researchers based outside Europe €1500 (based on the cost of second class rail or tourist class air travel). There is no compensation for consumables or other research costs.
