Swiss HIV Cohort Study

In principle, all researchers can submit projects to the SHCS.

Specifically, there are two tracks for submission:

1. Researchers who are involved and actively participate in the SHCS may submit research projects as responsible investigator.
2. Non-SHCS researchers can submit SHCS projects as principle investigator if the project is endorsed by a SHCS member (responsible investigator) who supervises the project scientifically and takes the financial responsibility regarding the allocated SHCS budget.
   
   

In both cases, SHCS authorship rules have to be followed.
