DESCRIPTION:COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a fun
 ding programme that encourages networking of scientific and technological 
 research activities throughout Europe and beyond. The aim is to facilitate
  breakthrough scientific developments leading to new concepts and products
 . COST does not fund research itself\, but supports networking (COST Actio
 ns) via different tools such as meetings\, short-term scientific exchanges
 \, training schools and dissemination activities. A COST Action lasts for 
 4 years. The deadline to initiate a COST Action is 20 October 2022 at 12:0
 0 noon (CET) (further info). COST Actions do not cover research funding\, 
 which has to be applied for to national funding agencies. \n\nSwiss-based 
 researchers\, involved in ongoing COST Actions\, can apply for research fu
 nding with the SNSF. Every year\, the SNSF launches a call for COST projec
 ts in Switzerland. The call is open to any discipline. Interdisciplinary r
 esearch is encouraged. Applications must be submitted via mySNF.\n\nAt the
  previous call in 2021\, 22 projects were approved by the SNSF.\n\nWho can
  apply: Swiss-based researchers who have gained at least one year of exper
 ience since obtaining their doctorate (or equivalent research experience) 
 and are actively participating in a COST Action of the series COST CA191##
  and COST CA201##.\n\nFunding and duration: Max. CHF 320’000 for a 4-yea
 r project. Same eligible costs as SNSF Project Funding\, except for equipm
 ent. \n\nDuration: 36-48 months\, depending on the duration of the COST Ac
 tion\n\nPre-registration deadline: 18 March 2022 (not compulsory\, but hig
 hly recommended).\nCall deadline: 5 May 2022\, 17:00 Swiss local time.\nEa
 rliest start: 1 January 2023\nLatest start: within 6 months after the fund
