CATEGORIES:Call for proposal
DESCRIPTION:The Swiss Foundation for Alcohol Research (SFAR) promotes scie
 ntific research in all alcohol-related areas an its relevance to health i
 n Switzerland. When awarding funding\, priority is given to smaller\, inno
 vative projects that address significant issues relating to alcohol policy
 \, social prevention and human biology that have both scientific value and
  practical relevance for Swiss public health. The SFAR is particularly int
 erested in supporting talented young researchers.\n\nThe Foundation offers
  the following funding instruments:\n\n	Grants to researchers to conduct s
 cientific studies (max. CHF 70K per year). Note that for applications that
  use animal experiments\, the relation to human biology must be explicitly
  demonstrated. Basic research using only animal experiments will not be co
 nsidered for funding.\n	Funding for scientific conferences\, particularly 
 coordination meetings (max. CHF 5-10K). Funding can be awarded to confere
 nces provided alcohol research is a central theme of the conference and it
  has a link to Switzerland. The application must state the specific purpos
 e of the SFAR funding at the conference. The Foundation does not provide d
 eficiency guarantees for conferences.\n	Publication grants (max. CHF 3K). 
 Publication grants will be awarded if the publication makes a key contribu
 tion to knowledge in the field of alcohol research.\n\n\nCall deadline: 1 
 April 2020\n\nDecision: mid-September.\nSuccess rate: 25%\n\nFor further i
 nformation\, please have a look at the call webpage.\n
