European Research Council (ERC)
As Switzerland is not associated to Horizon Europe, Swiss institutions cannot participate as a so-called “host institution” in individual ERC funding schemes. However, the SNSF set up a similar back-up scheme (see below). Furthermore, the participation in the ERC Synergy scheme is still possible.
