A. The Heart and Stroke Foundation is a federation consisting of a national office and 10 provincial Foundations which operate independently. The national office, the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada (HSFC), is responsible for coordinating peer review for all projects submitted to the Foundation (across all provinces). HSFC administers the Personnel Awards whereas the provincial Foundations administer the Grant-in-Aid awards. Projects supported through the Heart and Stroke Foundation Federation Research Fund are administered by HSFC.
