Dear Ms Meyer,

I think you should read the handbooks provided by the
European Union or read more carefully my email before
given imprecise information in order to not confuse
other members and other possible applicants.

This is completely pointless for the institution I was aplying
for. CERN is one of the centers given in the handbook as example
of elegible organizations to participate in the Outgoing-international
action. I have provided the page and paragraph where this is
explicitly explained in my first email.

I prefer not to comment on that!!! I think the International
Fellowships Unit of the Research Directorate is taking my
problem more seriously.
