SNSF Starting Grant 2023
Due to the current non-association of Switzerland to Horizon Europe, the SNSF has launched the new transitional measure 'SNSF Starting Grants' on behalf of the Swiss government. The SNSF Starting Grant Call 2023 is an integrative call which, in addition to the transitional measure for the 2023 ERC Starting Grants, also covers the SNSF Eccellenza Professorial Fellowships call 2023 and the PRIMA call 2023.
Start of the call: 1 November 2022
Submission Deadline: 1 February 2023
International and Swiss-based applicants who intended to apply for an ERC Starting Grant to work in Switzerland or an SNSF Eccellenza Professorial Fellowship are welcome to submit an SNSF Starting Grant proposal to the SNSF.
