• The SNSF Swiss Postdoctoral Fellowships are open to research on all disciplines and topics. If you with a PhD and no more than eight years of postdoctoral experience you can apply to a grant for a position in a non-commercial research institution in Switzerland, for a period between 12 and 24 months. To be eligible, applicants must not have worked and / or lived in Switzerland for more than 12 months in the 36 months prior to the submission deadline. The grant includes the postdoctoral fellow’s salary with social security contributions, financial contributions to research, and conference costs.
