The Swiss Cancer Research foundation promotes talent. It awards international research fellowships to motivated and talented early-career clinicians, enabling the opportunity to gain research experience abroad, receive training and for further education.
As a prospective scientist with an excellent track record, you have the opportunity to apply for a fellowship at one of our two submission rounds. The GAP (Grant Application Portal) offers guidance on submitting an application and provides information on the conditions for submission. Only applications submitted online via the portal will be considered.
