[ Professor Dr Max Cloëtta Foundation – Travel grant for medical scientists ]

The Professor Dr Max Cloëtta Foundation grants scholarships at a renowned institution to younger medical scientists during or immediately after completing their specialist training.

The scholarship is to finance a training stay at first-class, primarily foreign host institutes.

The focus is on gaining knowledge in fields which are given little space in medical studies (e. g. public health, psychosomatic and psychosocial medicine, ethics, IT, epidemiology, pharmacogenetics, forensic medicine, health communica-tion), or on deepening knowledge in special fields / techniques (e. g. specialised clinical techniques, molec-ular-biochemical methods, computational science). Pure research projects are not the aim of the programme.

Who can apply:

• medical scientists during or immediately after completing their specialist training.
• if they possess a Swiss citizenship or Swiss permanent residence or residence permit;
• if they possess a Swiss citizenship or Swiss permanent residence or residence permit;
• if their mentor confirms that they intend to accompany the scholarship holder during the scholarship period;
• if their Swiss home institution ensures re-entry.

• Please contact [email protected] at least 7 working days prior to the call deadline to obtain the mandatory institutional support letter.
