Altri premi

Qui di seguito trova una selezione di altri premi e borse di studio correlati all’ambito delle neuroscienze ma non conferiti dalla SSN.

Borsa di studio per la ricerca della Lega svizzera per il cervello

Nel 2025, la Lega svizzera per il cervello assegnerà a un giovane ricercatore o a una giovane ricercatrice una borsa di studio per una ricerca nel campo delle neuroscienze a titolo di fondo iniziale. L’obiettivo è sostenere qualsiasi ricerca sul cervello condotta in una clinica scientifica o in un istituto scientifico riconosciuti in Svizzera. Possono candidarsi alla borsa di studio le giovani e i giovani accademici che operano nel campo della medicina, della biologia, della psicologia, dell’informatica o in un ambito affine. Nel 2025 verrà premiata la ricerca clinica e traslazionale nel campo delle neuroscienze, in cui gli studi scientifici sui pazienti rappresentano un elemento importante.

Lo scopo è fondamentalmente quello di finanziare per un anno una dottoranda o un dottorando, a condizione che non disponga di altre risorse finanziarie. La remunerazione è in linea con i parametri del Fondo nazionale svizzero, che prevede un limite massimo annuo di CHF 60’000.–, assicurazioni sociali incluse.

La documentazione va trasmessa alla Lega svizzera per il cervello entro il 30.06.2024: infonoSpam@hirnliga.noSpamch

Il regolamento dettagliato può essere richiesto alla Lega svizzera per il cervello (infonoSpam@hirnliga.noSpamch) o scaricato dal sito web www.hirnliga.ch.

Premio Robert Bing

Il Premio Robert Bing della ASSM è indirizzato a giovani ricercatrici e ricercatori attivi nel settore delle neuroscienze. Il premio viene finanziato con il lascito del neurologo di Basilea Robert Bing (1878-1956) e, secondo le disposizioni testamentarie, ha il compito di rendere onore a quei lavori che si siano distinti per l’eccellenza nel campo della diagnosi, del trattamento o della cura delle malattie nervose.

Come deciso dal fondatore, il premio è destinato principalmente a ricercatrici e ricercatori svizzeri di età più giovane (fino a 45 anni). Il Premio Robert Bing, solitamente assegnato ogni due anni, prevede una somma di CHF 50’000.–.

Ulteriori informazioni e il link per l’iscrizione online sono disponibili qui.

  • Innovazioni tecniche o metodologiche nel campo della neuroriabilitazione oggetto di applicazione clinica negli ultimi due anni.
  • Un lavoro scientifico completo nel campo della neuroriabilitazione.

Epilepsy League awards

The Epilepsy League is inviting applications for three awards to be presented in 2023.

The Alfred Hauptmann Award for the best experimental or clinical research now comes with prize money of €20,000 – previously the amount was €10,000. Half the prize money will be awarded to the author of a basic research document that has been published, while the other half will be awarded in the field of clinical research. This has been made possible thanks to new sponsors: the award is now supported by the companies UCB-Pharma, Desitin Pharma, Arvelle/Angelini Pharma and GW/Jazz Pharmaceuticals.
The Alfred Hauptmann Award is presented every two years by the German and Austrian epileptology associations together with the Swiss Epilepsy League. It is named after the German neurologist Alfred Hauptmann, who had to emigrate from Germany in 1933.
More about the award: https://www.epi.ch/hauptmann-award

A second award scheduled for next year is the Prize for Best Dissertation, which goes to the best master’s or doctoral thesis from a Swiss university in the field of epileptology and carries prize money of CHF 1,000. Applications are welcome from all disciplines. So as well as medical students, anyone writing a thesis in the field of epilepsy is invited to apply, for example students of psychology or pharmacology.

Further information in French

Finally, applications are also open for the 2023 Research Recognition Award, presented by the Swiss League Against Epilepsy with prize money of CHF 25,000. It is awarded annually to researchers working in Switzerland as start-up funding for research projects. Preference is given to those who are researching causes of and therapies for epilepsies.
