A. There are core funding programs (open competitions) and strategic funding programs offered through the Foundation. Through its open competitions, the Foundation supports Personnel Awards (Doctoral Research Awards, Research Fellowships, Research Scholarship, and New Investigator/Distinguished Clinician Scientist awards) and Grants-in-Aid (operating grants). Specific provinces offer additional awards (Career Investigator awards, studentships, Program Grants). See Provincial Programs for more details. In addition to these core programs, the Heart and Stroke Foundation Federation Research Fund has been created which supports research in strategic areas. Special Requests for Applications are launched – typically for larger research initiatives (Strategic Training Program Grants, New Emerging Teams, Interdisciplinary Health Research Teams) or for Personnel Awards in research areas where there is a need for increased research capacity.
