SystemsX.ch, the Swiss Initiative in Systems Biology, is issuing its Fifth Call for Proposals.

The focus of the present Call is on

1. Transition Post-doc Fellowships: Ambitious and motivated young researcher formulate their own interdisciplinary research project as a principal investigator for two years, with the option of a third year. They choose one research group of a discipline complementary to the one of their doctoral thesis at a SystemsX. ch partner institution. The research groups will host the Transition Post-doc Fellow and his/her project, allowing the post-doc to unfold and flourish. Promising Transition Post-doc Fellowship candidates will be invited for an interview with SystemsX. ch SEB members and Board members of the SNSF Systems Biology panel. With these Fellowships, SystemsX.ch wants to promote in particular the life science modelling.
2. Interdisciplinary PhD student projects: To educate the next generation of systems biology scientists, IPhD students are supervised by two mentors from different and complementary disciplines. IPhD proposals will be commented by the SystemsX.ch Scientific Executive Board (SEB) and evaluated by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF).
