Researchers whose applications for SNSF Swiss Postdoctoral Fellowships 2023 were rejected may submit a revised version with the same host institution, if they obtained an evaluation score of at least 6.3 out of 9. The same rule applies to the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships (MSCA PF), which requires at least 70% of the maximum score to be obtained. Applicants whose applications were unsuccessful in the SNSF Swiss Postdoctoral Fellowships 2021 and/or 2022 call may submit a revised application for the SNSF Swiss Postdoctoral Fellowships 2024 with the same host institution, regardless of the evaluation score obtained.
