The application is generally submitted by the author of the scientific work. If there are several authors, the application may also be submitted by the editor.
Grant applications for book publications that result from an SNSF-funded project can be submitted by the grantee or by project employees. They will be able to do so even after the end of the project.
Applicants who apply for a grant for a book publication that is not linked to an SNSF project must meet the personal requirements for applicants pursuant to Article 10 of the Funding Regulations.
Grant applications for monographs that are the result of a doctoral thesis or a habilitation can be submitted even if Article 10 is not fulfilled, as long as the thesis or habilitation was defended and accepted at a Swiss university.
