Thanks to the new submission deadline at 5 p.m. Swiss local time (instead of midnight as until now), SNSF staff will be able to provide assistance to applicants through the entire submission process. The change of deadline also brings SNSF rules closer into line with those of major research funding organisations around the world.
Please note: project funding will be concerned by the new deadline first. As 1 October is a Saturday, the actual deadline is Monday, 3 October 2016 at 5 p.m. Swiss local time.
