Researchers based in Switzerland and Australia can apply. Proposals must involve at least one partner from each country and focus on underrepresented population groups in healthcare.
Benefits
The SNSF will cover costs for the Swiss part of the research, while the NHMRC will cover costs for the Australian part. Maximum funding amount on the Swiss side is 400,000 francs per project.
