Fondation Gene&Vision.ch supports experimental vision science and ophthalmology research, with a clear emphasis on foveal vision, retinal biology, and advanced imaging approaches. Its grants appear to back hands-on laboratory projects and collaborative studies, including comparative avian retina work and optic nerve analysis, often involving university or research-lab partners in Switzerland and Europe. The foundation seems especially interested in projects that combine biological models with innovative microscopy and image-based methods.
Research project funding via direct support, likely small-to-moderate grants for specific experimental studies; collaborative and project-based rather than open programmatic giving. Funding appears to be award-driven and aligned to investigator-led proposals, with an emphasis on specialized lab methods and model systems.

Align proposals tightly with the foundation’s stated priorities: foveal vision, retinal biology, avian/comparative eye models, and imaging-based experimental methods. Emphasize the novelty of the imaging approach, the experimental model, and the relevance to vision science; because this looks like a specialized research funder, applicants should expect a targeted process and should contact the foundation directly or through existing scientific collaborators for eligibility and timing.
