Application Deadline Extended to April 25 | SSI/ISID

ISID and the Swiss Society for Infectious Diseases (SSI) jointly sponsor the SSI/ISID Infectious Diseases Research Fellowship Program to support infectious disease physicians and scientists from under-resourced countries through multidisciplinary clinical and laboratory training at select biomedical institutions in Switzerland. The objectives of the Fellowship Program are:

• To train promising young physicians and scientists from under-resourced countries for clinical and research positions in infectious diseases.

• To foster partnerships between fellows and infectious disease leaders in Switzerland.

• To increase scientific research capacity in under-resourced/high disease burden countries.

Opportunities for training and research in a variety of areas ranging from basic studies of the mechanism of disease to studies in public health, epidemiology, diagnostics, therapeutics or vaccine development, are available through this program.
