The Future Food Fellowship is a postdoctoral programme of ETH Zurich and EPFL for exceptionally qualified young researchers who propose projects targeting future food issues such as nutrition, production, packaging and health. The fellowship provides research funds for three years, enabling fellows to work on their projects and collaborate with Swiss industry partners.

ETH Zurich and EPFL have launched Future Food – A Swiss Research Initiative (“Future Food Initiative”) together with Swiss food industry leaders Bühler, Givaudan and Nestlé as founding partners. The aim of the initiative is to expand research and education in the area of food and nutrition sciences. The overarching goal is to develop solutions that address grand challenges of food and nutrition globally.

Through the fellowship programme, the initiative aims at bringing together competences from academic and industrial research in this field. A successful fellow must demonstrate the willingness to engage with scientific or economic issues across the frontiers of food and nutrition sciences.
