The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), through its Fertility and Infertility Branch (FIB), is offering the Specialized Cooperative Centers Program in Reproduction and Infertility Research (SCCPIR) grant. This grant provides funding for a limited number of research centers in the reproductive sciences. The grant’s purpose is to facilitate multidisciplinary interactions for high-quality translational research and to serve as national resources for training and career development of young scientists in reproduction and infertility. This cooperative program seeks applications from investigators willing to establish a national network. This network will accelerate bidirectional knowledge transfer between the laboratory and clinic, with the ultimate goal of improving human reproductive health through enhanced communication, innovation, and research excellence.

| Description: | The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), through the Fertility and Infertility Branch (FIB), provides funding for a limited number of research centers in the reproductive sciences. These centers provide an arena for multidisciplinary interactions among basic and clinical scientists interested in establishing high quality translational research programs in the reproductive sciences. The centers also serve as national resources for the training and career development of young scientists electing to pursue careers conducting research in high priority areas of reproduction and infertility. Accordingly, the purpose of this FOA is to announce the competition of the Specialized Cooperative Centers Program in Reproduction and Infertility Research (SCCPIR). Applications are sought from investigators willing to participate with the NICHD under a cooperative agreement in a multicenter cooperative research program. Center investigators will be expected to work with NICHD staff in facilitating research collaborations and interactions within and among centers. Such a cooperative program will form a national network that facilitates and accelerates bidirectional knowledge transfer between the laboratory and clinic with the ultimate goal of improving human reproductive health through enhanced communication, innovation and research excellence. |
