Description
This funding opportunity enables investigators to request access to the NIH's Biological Testing Facility (BTF) to advance innovative contraceptive or reproductive health programs. The initiative is designed to support the development and validation of new methods and products for fertility regulation and reproductive health, facilitating their readiness for regulatory submission or clinical development. The program is administered by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) using the X01 activity code, which provides access to NIH research resources rather than direct financial support.
