Researcher at the University of Bern secures funding for innovative project
IFIK junior researcher Sabrina Stöckli has secured a BRIDGE Proof-of-Concept (PoC) Fellowship, receiving 130,000 CHF to advance intestinal vaccine research performed at Prof. Siegfried Hapfelmeier's laboratory for Gut Microbiology at the IFIK. As a Co-Founder of UniBe Spin-off "Santella," Sabrina will develop a novel vaccine targeting pathogenic E. coli in livestock. Sabrina is one of 11 recipients in the latest BRIDGE special call.
The fellowship, part of the BRIDGE funding program by SNSF and Innosuisse, supports young researchers in refining business ideas from their research for market entry and business model validation.
