Summary
The Brocher Foundation residencies last between one and four months. They give researchers the opportunity to work at the Brocher Centre on projects on the ethical, legal and social implications for humankind of recent medical research and new technologies. Every month a dozen of visiting researchers live and concentrate on their research project at the Foundation. The Brocher Foundation offers to successful applicants an accommodation in the domain of the Brocher Foundation and work space with all facilities. Developing a research project involving cooperation with a Swiss university, a European university, a governmental or non- governmental will be considered as an asset. A researcher can apply with other researchers to work on a collaborative project. The mission of the Brocher Foundation is to host researchers from all over the world who dedicate their work to ethical, legal and social aspects of medical development and public health policies. The Foundation supports multidisciplinary and intercultural research. The visitors’ aim is to write a book, articles, essays or a PhD thesis. The invited researchers also have exceptional opportunities to meet others and set up collaborations with experts from the numerous international organisations and NGOs based in Geneva such as WHO, WTO, WIPO, UNHCR, ILO, WMA, ICRC, … Finally, everything is done so that researchers staying at the same time develop a scientific network that will be beneficial to each of their careers as well as to the academic institutions of our region. This network is maintained by the Foundation through its club of «Brocher Alumni» who interact on its intranet website and meet every two years for a specific seminar.
