ETH Zurich is providing an exciting opportunity for visiting scientists from academic institutions in low and lower-middle-income countries. The ETH4D Visiting Scientist Grant is a partially funded research grant that enables scientists to conduct a short research stay or attend a conference or workshop organised by ETH Zurich scientists. The grant sum is a maximum of 10kCHF.

To be eligible for the grant, the visiting scientist must be affiliated with an institution in a country classified under the categories according to the DownloadDAC-?list of the OECD, with preference given to “least developed”, “low-?income” and “lower-?middle income” countries. Additionally, the scientist must have existing or planned research collaborations with the hosting professor and proven academic qualifications.

Application documents include a description of the research stay or conference/workshop attendance, a budget (using the Downloadbudget template), CVs of all involved persons, and a letter of support from the ETH professor. The application deadline is January 31, 2024.

This is an excellent opportunity for visiting scientists to expand their research and collaborate with professionals at ETH Zurich. Interested and qualified applicants can apply by visiting ETH Zurich’s website at eth4d.ethz.ch.
