Also on the agenda are the research and innovation priorities of the Czech Presidency of the Council of the European Union in the second half of 2022. State Secretary Hirayama will discuss Switzerland&#8217;s desired early association with Horizon Europe and related programs and initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>With around 370 cooperation projects between Swiss and Czech researchers within the framework of Horizon 2020, the Czech Republic is one of Switzerland&#8217;s 20 most important partners. In addition, thanks to the Lead Agency Agreement between the Swiss National Science Foundation and the Czech Science Foundation (GACR), it will be possible from 2019 for researchers from these two countries to submit a single joint application to one of the two institutions. Among other things, it should be noted that both scientific communities collaborate in various international research infrastructures, such as the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) or the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL). Finally, since 1968, 186 Czech scientists and artists have spent part of their careers at a Swiss university thanks to Swiss Government Excellence Scholarships.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_131083\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-131083\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-131084 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/swissfederalism.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Czech-Rep.-Schweiz-1024x532.png\" alt=\"Czech Rep.
