The AHA Innovative Project Award provides funding for pioneering research in cardiovascular disease and stroke. Awards support high-risk, high-reward projects that may not fit traditional funding mechanisms. The program encourages innovative approaches and novel hypotheses that have the potential to transform understanding of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease.
