Description
The American Heart Association’s Heart Transplantation Research Network Planning Grant supports development of a detailed trial protocol and a grant application for submission to a federal agency or another major funder. Proposed work should focus on developing and testing diagnostic or therapeutic interventions to improve health outcomes. The award centers on planning the trial and preparing the proposal for subsequent funding.
The program sits within the Association’s broader portfolio of basic, clinical, population and data science research. The Association is the largest nonprofit, nongovernmental funder of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular research in the United States. Its general review guidelines consider the project’s relationship to cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease or brain health, without requiring applicants to belong to a specialty-oriented laboratory, clinic or department.
