Three Bulgarian researchers involved in COST Actions on medieval studies, ultrascale computing and nanotechnologies.
A member since 1997, Bulgarian researchers first became involved in COST Actions in the field of natural sciences, later on taking up a more active role in building COST Actions as members of the Actions’ core groups, also known as management committees.
This video was presented at the COST Committee of Senior Officials meeting in Sofia, Bulgaria, 12-13 November 2014.
COST contributed to the latest European Gender Summit by organising a Science Café. The event also marked the launch of genderSTE, a new policy-driven targeted network to advance the state of the art in knowledge and policy implementation on gender, science, technology and environment.

The rationale behind the COST Arts & Technologies (CAT) workshop is that there are considerable benefits to be drawn from integrating arts and technologies, to a much larger extent than ever before. Combining artistic creativity with technological expertise should in itself show great potential leading to new products, services and social innovations.
Graphene and the Carbon Revolution
In October 2010 the Nobel Prize for Physics was won by Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov at Manchester University for their work on graphene but if you are left wondering just what graphene is and how it fits in the carbon family then watch this video made by VegaScienceTrust.

Fergus McNeill discusses Offender Supervision in Europe on BBC Scotland 2016
Fergus McNeill, Chair of COST Action IS1106 on Offender Supervision in Europe, discusses the Action’s findings regarding the Scottish community supervision system with Shelley Jofre on Scotland 2016 (BBC — March 14, 2016).
The network recommends that supervision be proportionate with the crime committed and that unnecessary pain caused by supervision be minimised for the person subjected to supervision and for others affected by it.
Colour and Space in Cultural Heritage (COSCH)
True, precise and complete documentation of artefacts is essential for the conservation and preservation of our cultural heritage (CH). By ensuring access to the best possible documentation of artefacts, COST Action TD1201 COSCH contributes to the enhanced understanding of material CH and help its long-term preservation.
