Individual researchers and groups are all welcome to apply. The funds are intended to support the research strategy at PSI, where high quality research and increased external funding are important goals.
Projects supported should have a clear plan on applying for external funding such as EU framework programmes or similar funding sources of the same scale.
A project description of 4-8 pages must be submitted describing how the funds will be used in 2019 and how this will affect the goal of applying for external funding in the years to come.
Deadline: January 20, 2019 at 23:59.
