Name: American Heart Association (AHA) Predoctoral Fellowship
Award Amount: $32,036 annually
Information And Eligibility:
The American Heart Association (AHA) Predoctoral Fellowship is a prestigious research fellowship designed to support doctoral students who are conducting high-quality, innovative research related to cardiovascular disease, stroke, and overall cardiovascular health. This fellowship plays a critical role in developing the next generation of researchers whose work aligns with the AHA’s mission to reduce disability and death caused by heart disease and stroke.
The fellowship is open to students enrolled full-time in a doctoral degree program at an accredited institution in the United States or abroad. Applicants may be pursuing degrees in fields such as biomedical sciences, public health, epidemiology, nursing research, physiology, genetics, bioengineering, health policy, or other disciplines directly related to cardiovascular or cerebrovascular research. Research topics may range from basic laboratory science and clinical research to population health, health disparities, and prevention strategies.
AHA Predoctoral Fellows are selected based on the scientific merit of their research proposal, academic performance, research potential, and demonstrated commitment to a research-focused career. Applicants are expected to work under the supervision of an experienced mentor and to clearly articulate how the fellowship will enhance their research training and professional development. The program emphasizes originality, feasibility, and the potential impact of the proposed research on cardiovascular or stroke-related outcomes.
In addition to financial support, recipients benefit from national recognition, access to AHA research resources, and opportunities to engage with the broader cardiovascular research community. Fellowship funding may be used to support stipend costs and allow students to focus more fully on their research without the burden of additional employment or teaching obligations.
