Postdoctoral Fellowship Award

Heart & Stroke’s personnel award programs provide salary support to Canada’s top researchers across the career continuum. This support helps ensure the training, retention and success of Canada’s cardiovascular and cerebrovascular researchers. Heart & Stroke is pleased to launch the Postdoctoral Personnel Awards for the 2025/26 funding year. The objective of the competition is to increase the number of researchers and clinician-scientists in Canadian universities and research institutions devoted specifically to cardiovascular and/or cerebrovascular health. The stipends awarded will enable Postdoctoral Fellows to pursue their program of research and engage with mentors as part of their training.

Funding available to a maximum of $30,000 per year for two years.
