Memorial Deadline: Monday 1st, December 2025
External Deadline: Thursday 4th, December 2025
Description
Award: Up to $500,000 over four years ($125,000/year)
Deadline: December 4, 2025 (3:00 pm ET)
Focus Areas: The call seeks to support creative approaches to healthy and adverse pregnancy outcomes, including underlying mechanisms of normal pregnancy, preeclampsia, preterm birth, and late term pregnancy loss (projects focused on miscarriage at 10 weeks or less and infertility related loss are beyond the scope of this mechanism). These conditions remain both pervasive challenges in reproductive medicine and persistently underexplored in reproductive biology.
Applications focused on subtyping adverse pregnancy outcomes, investigating maternal–fetal interactions, and integrating animal models with clinical outcomes are especially welcome.
Team Format: The initiative encourages both bold individual proposals and multi-investigator teams, especially across disciplinary boundaries.
