Collaboration and Exchange Awards

In addition to the funding available to support research professionals to undertake their work, the Heart Foundation Research Program offers the Collaboration and Exchange Award for Heart Foundation–funded scholars and postdoctoral fellows, to facilitate capacity building through collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Funding is available through the award to visit research facilities across Australia and overseas to further and strengthen a researcher’s activity and career.

Researchers have the chance to visit research facilities nationally and overseas, and maximise their opportunities to exchange innovative ideas, knowledge and skills. It offers a great opportunity to build new collaborations.

Eligibility criteria: Heart Foundation-funded scholars and postdoctoral fellows

Duration: One-off funding to support activities for up to 6 months

Value: Up to $5000 as a one-off payment
