A new joint call between the University of Lausanne and the University of Padua is launched in the framework of the privileged partnership between both institutions.
We are pleased to announce the opening of the fourth joint call between the University of Lausanne and the University of Padua, launched in the framework of the privileged partnership between the two institutions. This call offers two types of grants:
All academic fields covered jointly by UNIPD and UNIL are allowed, including interdisciplinary projects.
CONSOLIDATION GRANTS (max. EUR 30,000.- over 3 years)
The aim of this grant is to expand and strengthen an already existing collaboration, with the objective to create a lasting joint structure. This can take the form of a research network on a specific topic, a UNIL-UNIPD joint centre of expertise, or a joint lab for instance. Other types of ‘joint structures’ may also be proposed.

Priority will be given to teams whose projects were selected during the previous joint calls.
