It is very important that the applicant speaks French or German. If you are interested in the program listed below, please mailto:info@isid.org The purpose of this Fellowship Program is to support infectious dis- ease physicians and scientists from developing countries through mul- tidisciplinary 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 developing countries for clinical and research positions in infectious dis- eases, * to foster partnerships between Fellows and infectious disease lead- ers in Switzerland, and * to increase scientific research capacity in low income/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 develop- ment, are available through this program. The term of the Fellowship is for one year. The start date of the 2003 Fellowship Program is late September/early October 2003 and will be determined by arrangement between the host institution and the Fellow. A financial stipend of up to SF 36,000 per year (approximately US$ 21,000) will be given to Fellows to cover travel costs and living ex- penses. The program intends to award two fellowships every year. IMPORTANT NOTICE: Language skills of French or German are necessary according to the institution chosen (German for Basel, Bern, Zurich and St. Gallen; French for Geneva and Lausanne).
