This grant, offered by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), supports the re-competition of the Specialized Cooperative Centers Program in Reproduction and Infertility Research (SCCPIR). The purpose of this grant is to fund research centers that foster multidisciplinary interactions between basic and clinical scientists. These centers will focus on establishing high-quality translational research programs in reproduction and infertility. Additionally, this grant aims to serve as a national resource for the training and career development of new scientists pursuing translational research careers in these high-priority areas. Center investigators are also expected to engage in community outreach to increase awareness of their research.

| Description: | The purpose of this FOA is to announce the re-competition of the Specialized Cooperative Centers Program in Reproduction and Infertility Research (SCCPIR). The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) provides funding for a limited number of research centers in the reproductive sciences. These centers provide an arena for multidisciplinary interactions between basic and clinical scientists interested in establishing high quality translational research programs in the area of reproduction and infertility. The centers also serve as national resources for the training and career development of new scientists electing to pursue careers conducting translational research in high priority areas of reproduction and infertility. Finally, center investigators are expected to participate in important community outreach and education efforts to increase awareness and convey the importance and implications of their research activities to the general public. |
