The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) recently announced the Sprint for Women’s Health, a funding opportunity for researchers to discover unconventional approaches and innovative ways to push high-impact biomedical research forward to improve women’s health outcomes. ARPA-H intends the effort to fundamentally change the trajectory of women’s healthcare research and radically accelerate the next generation of discoveries. A total of $100 million is available through the effort.
Submissions for a grant are due April 12. Six specific areas of interest that are outlined in the ARPA-H announcement, four that are potentially of interest to the imaging community:
