The Leading House Asia has launched the 2024 Early-Career Grant Call for a research stay in any country/territory in East or Southeast Asia.
The main purpose of the Early-​Career Grant Call is to foster and facilitate the direct exchange between Swiss research groups and their Asian research partners and to enable the mobility of early-​career researchers from Swiss Universities, public research institutes, Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS) and Universities of Teacher Education (UTEs). The program will fund research stays for a duration of a minimum of 3 months and up to 6 months and is open to all scientific fields including social sciences, humanities, design and the arts. The LH Asia invites doctoral students (who have completed at least two years of their doctorate by the start of the research stay) currently working in a research group at an eligible Swiss institution to apply for a research stay in East or Southeast Asia. UAS/UTE researchers with min 2+ and max. 5+years of experience are also eligible to apply.

The Swiss National Science Foundation SNSF offers Scientific Exchanges that are aimed at researchers who want to host their own scientific event in Switzerland, invite colleagues from abroad for a research visit to Switzerland, or visit their colleagues in another country.
Scientific conferences and workshops are the two types of event covered by the scheme. Research visits by Swiss researchers to other countries or by researchers from abroad to Switzerland are funded for a period of 1 to 6 months. For scientific events, the travel expenses and food and board costs of participants from abroad are covered, for research visits those of travelling guests.
The Scientific Exchanges funding scheme also supports the organisation of events that allow research communities to exchange best practices on how to develop a Data Management Plan, preparing research data and making it publicly available.

The programme "JSPS Postdoctoral Fellowships" enables researchers in Switzerland to stay in Japan for 12 to 24 months. The Swiss National Science Foundation SNSF is acting as the nomination body for the Postdoctoral Fellowships of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS).
