The Swiss National Science Foundation

The Swiss State Secretariat for Education and Research (SER/SBF) asked the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) in December 2006 to supply an in-depth assessment of the special funding planned for SystemsX.ch and also to suggest possible assessment mechanisms.

The SNSF has created an international review board for evaluating RTD applications. The board is reinforced with members of the Research Council from Mathematics, Natural and Engineering Sciences (Division II), Biology and Medicine (Division III) and Targeted Research (Division IV). More information can be found on the website of the SNF (please click on logo image on the side bar).
