Zeenat Qureshi Stroke Institute

We are in the process of a funding drive to enhance the capabilities of
Zeenat Qureshi Stroke Institute (a nonprofit entity, tax ID 90-0535639). The institute was founded 14 years ago to honor the memory of Zeenat Qureshi who had died at a young age with a stroke. Her words “there can be no price on education, it is worth every penny and all the effort” have been the guiding principles of this effort.

Since its inauguration, the institutes have led the way in cutting-edge research in epidemiology, clinical trials, and basic research and has led the forefront with its motto “together we can conquer stroke”. Over 500     scientific papers have been published in prestigious scientific journals, over 10 books written, and over 2000 scientific presentations have been made all over the world. The institute is one of the very few in the world that has its own medical journal that is published every three months with new and exciting research from all over the world. Over a 100 students and researchers got their start from Zeenat Qureshi Stroke Institute and went on to become leaders in their respective fields. The research program was ranked in the top 20 programs in all biomedical research in the US by the “Scientist” in 2007. The institute has its own YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpw5LCC6EvCtxsRlu1qND4A/featured for educational efforts focusing on the most recent treatments for stroke and has received over 100,000 views and 566 active subscribers in the last 3 years. The institute has branches in China, West Africa, and Turkey.

The institute has relied on volunteerism and personal donations over the years to continue the strive for excellence. We need your support to take  Zeenat Qureshi Stroke Institute to the next level and to acquire a building with permanent staff so we can continue to make stroke a “treatable disease” and provide a bright future for patients and new generation of medical professionals.
