The call is led by Prof. emeritus Marco Mazzotti, who oversees project evaluation, monitoring, and funding decisions, with support from SFOE experts. If milestones are not met, he may terminate projects and reallocate any funds that become available.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe <strong>guiding theme </strong>of<a href=\"https://www.bfe.admin.ch/en/sour-call-1-2026-en\"> the call</a> is <strong>“Supply Security on the Path to a Net-Zero Energy System.”</strong> It seeks <strong>high-risk, high-potential “game-changing” technologies</strong> that could substantially improve Switzerland’s energy security while advancing the transition to net-zero, e.g., by increasing renewable production, enabling better integration into the energy system, or reducing energy consumption. <br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe key idea is <strong>not incremental improvement</strong>: projects should aim for a <strong>major technological leap</strong>, starting around TRL 3–4 and reaching at least TRL 6, with <strong>commercialisation considered from the outset</strong>. In other words, SOUR is looking for unconventional technologies that could fundamentally shift the cost/performance frontier and eventually achieve significant market deployment in Switzerland.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong><u>Funding duration:</u></strong> The total funding for this call is CHF 4 Mio., with which at most 4 projects will be supported. Each project may apply for up to CHF 1.33 million over a maximum period of three years. The start of the projects is planned for April 2027.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u><strong>Applications:</strong></u> Applications for SOUR funding proceed through a single proposal and require the formation of a team, a work programme, and a budget.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u><strong>Project Team:</strong></u> A team is led by one Principal Investigator (PI) and may contain one or more Co-PIs. Because SOUR funding is intended for small teams, the team size should be conducive to producing a major leap and enters into the evaluation. The PI and Co-PIs must be employees of a Swiss institution of higher education, a Swiss private sector company, or a Swiss non-commercial research organisation.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nApplicants are encouraged but not required to contribute own or third-party contributions, which are defined as:</div>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Own contributions are financial contributions (cash or in-kind) from applicants.</li>\r\n\t<li>Third-party contributions are financial contributions (cash or in-kind) from sources other than the applicants.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\n<div>The overhead rate for this call is 0%.</div>\r\n\r\n<div><br>\r\n<u><strong>Submission:</strong></u></div>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>A complete application must contain a proposal and curricula vitae (CVs) for the PI and the Co-PIs.</li>\r\n\t<li>The PI must submit the proposal as Microsoft Word and pdf files via<a href=\"https://www.privasphere.com/e-uebermittlungBFE-Form\"> e-submission SFOE.</a></li>\r\n\t<li>The proposal must be prepared in English using the template that is available on the <a href=\"http://www.bfe.admin.ch/sweet\">SWEET website</a>.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\n<div><br>\r\n<strong>Dealine: 1 December 2026 at 12:00 noon CEST. </strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nFor additional information please refer to the call <a href=\"https://www.bfe.admin.ch/en/sour-call-1-2026-en\">website</a> and <a href=\"https://pubdb.bfe.admin.ch/en/sammlungen/sour-call-1-2026\">guidelines</a>, or contact the <a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">EPFL Research Office</a>.</div>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-09-10T11:31:46", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-10T11:36:16", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "", "url_place_and_room": "", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [], "speaker": "", "organizer": "", "contact": "<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">EPFL Research Office</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121762/", "category": { "id": 16, "code": "PROP", "fr_label": "Appel à proposition", "en_label": "Call for proposal", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/3/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/79/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/140/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72558, "title": "SNSF: Biodiversa+ 2026", "slug": "snsf-biodiversa-2026", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/snsf-biodiversa-2026", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33808/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33808/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33808/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-11-10", "end_date": "2026-11-10", "start_time": null, "end_time": null, "description": "<strong>Biodiversa+ is launching a new call for projects addressing biodiversity and novel ecosystems.

Today, our cities and environments are measured to the detail and seemingly overrepresented through proliferating digital twins, predictive models and simulations, indicators and benchmarks. These operative visualizations which reduce the world to computable data, no longer merely describe reality: they organize, mobilize, and activate matter. They function as automated, asignifying spatial infrastructures, while progressively dispensing with a symbolic mediation increasingly deemed unnecessary and, just as often, a problematic source of ambiguity.<br>\r\nDigital twins, predictive models and simulations, indicators and benchmarks are a constitutive part of an expanding culture of immediacy (Kornbluh, 2024), where the critique of mediation carried out by the likes of Theodor Adorno or Henri Lefebvre is resolved not through its impossible disappearance, but through its naturalization. Subsumed within the environmental interface of capital and technology (Hörl 2017), mediation is subsequently desocialized and depoliticized.<br>\r\nHowever, without collective figurations, there is no possibility of common horizons, and our capacity to bring about democratic and inclusive transformations of our cities and territories falters. In the SNSF project Infrastructural Baukultur, ALICE (Atelier de la Conception de l'Espace) is exploring ways to leverage the constructed nature of all representations in the co-design of our cities. As part of this project, the aim of this two-day course is to focus on the theoretical and historical frameworks of this question.<br>\r\nDuring the 1980s, as the cultural and literary critic Fredric Jameson developed a spatial analysis of the historical stages of capitalism, he arrived (not uncritically) at the work of MIT urban theorist Kevin Lynch, particularly The Image of the City (1960). If Lynch had suggested that urban alienation was directly proportional to the impossibility of creating an (individual) mental image of the city, Jameson went further, contending that our \"incapacity to map socially (is) as crippling to political experience as the analogous incapacity to map spatially is for urban experience.\" From there, he went on to develop the idea of cognitive mapping as an aesthetic strategy, arguing that, even when the structural coordinates of individual and social life become unrepresentable, they can still find figures and figurations through which to express themselves in allegorical, i.e. distorted and symbolic, ways.<br>\r\nLater on, feminist scholars Donna Haraway and Rosi Braidotti described figurations as \"materialistic mappings of situated, i.e., embedded and embodied, social positions\" (Braidotti 2011), noting that even if \"figures pertain to graphic representation and visual forms in general, (they) do not have to be representational and mimetic, (...) they do have to be tropic, performative images that can be inhabited, condensed maps of contestable worlds. (…) The chip, seed, or gene is simultaneously literal and figurative. We inhabit and are inhabited by such figures that map universes of knowledge, practice and power\" (Haraway 1997). Departing from these premises and mirroring Jameson's journey, this time back into architecture and urban design, this course seeks to construct, historically and theoretically, the concept of figuration as an allegorical and material practice capable of mapping contestable and individually inaccessible realities, a tropic and political instrument that short circuits equivalences and unsettles certainties. From there, it will encourage a critical debate around a series of interrelated questions at the core of architectural practice and academia today.<br>\r\nHow does design research connect with the fields of architectural history, theory and practice? What challenges are posed to collective figuration by an unrepresentable capitalism, fragmented habitats, and infrastructured perceptions? Can a critical understanding of the abstract, ideological nature of operative representations help us repoliticize urban production? Can we trace alternative genealogies of architectural, urban, and landscape representation that reveal forms of agency and collectivity capable of overcoming the traps of immediacy? Can space, both as an abstraction and as a lived, grounded experience, become a translation device within inter-, intra-, and transdisciplinary processes?<br>\r\nTo this end, the course will begin with an introductory session that develops a common framework by articulating, both historically and conceptually, the notion of figuration and its role within design methods, in contrast to the operational visualizations of environmentality. This framework will orient the subsequent lectures and discussions with our four invited speakers:<br>\r\n<br>\r\n• <strong>Anna Kornbluh, </strong>Professor of English at University of Illinois Chicago and author of Immediacy: Or, The Style of Too Late Capitalism (2024), will offer us a critical reflection on the political consequences of our contemporary regime of aesthetic and technological immediacy.<br>\r\n• <strong>Marc Schoonderbeek</strong>, Associate Professor of Architecture and Head of the Borders and Territories research group at TU Delft, will discuss the multilayered role of representation within design research strategies.<br>\r\n• <strong>Marina Otero Verzier</strong>, architect and researcher, leading the Data Mourning Clinic at Columbia University GSAPP, will delve into the tension between digital custodianship and the unsustainable practices of the data storage industry through the lens of Tuvalu's digital twin.<br>\r\n• <strong>Ignacio Farías</strong>, Professor of Urban Anthropology, Director of the Georg Simmel Center for Urban Studies and Co-Director of the Stadtlabor for Multimodal Anthropology at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, will present his ongoing work on spatial figures within urban transformation processes.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nInterested participants are invited to submit, by October 9, a short abstract (max. 300 words) outlining their approach to the subject, which will be developed into a short essay during the seminar. Assessment for the course will be based on the essay, completion of the reading assignments, and active participation in the sessions.
