American Heart Association Student Scholarships in Cerebrovascular Disease and Stroke

Description

The Student Scholarships in Cerebrovascular Disease and Stroke will be awarded to students specifically researching cerebrovascular disease and stroke. Scholarship recipients may also be eligible to receive a $750 travel grant pending verification of their attendance at the International Stroke Conference (ISC) and an accepted, co-authored abstract for the current year's conference. The preceptor and recipient of a Student Scholarship in Cerebrovascular Disease and Stroke are encouraged to submit a co-authored abstract. Eligible applicants include students in medical schools or in master's or equivalent programs in an accredited school in the United States where research training in cardiovascular disease and stroke is available. MD/PhD and PhDs are ineligible unless the PhD was obtained previously in an area not related to basic sciences. Each applicant and applicant's preceptor must be members of the AHA at the time of application. The awards will be made to institutions within the United States in which the research training is available to students under qualified supervision. If the student conducts the research at a location other than their home institution, they must have written approval of his/her dean or other responsible individual. A committee of representatives of the American Heart Association scientific councils will select institutions based on the quality of a proposal, supporting supervision and the student's academic achievement. The institution in which the student is enrolled must appoint a preceptor to guide the student during the scholarship period. The student's and preceptor's curriculum vitae and bibliography must be submitted. Up to three additional recommendation letters outside of the preceptor's statement may be submitted and are optional. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
