Stroke Foundation has developed a Research Partnership Framework to support increased requests for Stroke Foundation to partner with academic organisations in applying for stroke research grants. 

Stroke Foundation's partnership role can vary, from endorsement through a letter of support, to collaborations involving in-kind contribution, to fully formed partnerships with Stroke Foundation where proposals are developed jointly and may involve a greater contribution. 

Early engagement is strongly encouraged and lead times apply.

Steps for engagement:

1. Refer to the Research Partnership Framework and download the application form.
2. Send your completed application form to research@strokefoundation.org.au
3. Stroke Foundation acknowledges and engages with the applicant as appropriate.
4. Applications are assessed in accordance with the Framework on a case-by-case basis.
5. Confirmation of application outcome.
