On November 4, 2024, during in-house EUTA training at the Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković”, Ljiljana Mihajlović represented her way of getting MSCA Staff Exchange project and MET-EFFECT story. The joint team consisted of Prof. Goran Stojanović, Ljiljana Mihajlović, and Miron Sopić shared their best practices, knowledge, and writing skills with some hands-on tips. We hope we provided not only information but more importantly, motivation to join the MSCA SE community. Enjoy some impressions!
