The fellowships are aimed at finishing doctoral students and/or recent PhD graduates who wish to conduct research stays abroad, enabling them to extend their scientific network and independence and to enhance their research profile, in view of a future scientific or academic career in Switzerland.
Receiving such a fellowship is a great achievement, that recognises the merit of each individual researcher. It will allow them to develop their PhD to the next stage, by either producing a book and/or articles from their dissertation, as well as starting an entirely new research project that goes beyond the dissertation. It is also a fantastic opportunity to work in a new academic environment – with these laureates, either in the United States, in Canada or in France. It will surely contribute to expand the research collaborations ANSO has been forging throughout its thirteen years of existence!”
