Novel Approaches to Male Fertility Regulation: The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) invites applications from investigators interested in participating with NICHD in a cooperative research program to explore novel approaches to male fertility regulation. The NICHD has identified development of novel male contraceptives as a high priority goal within its Strategic Plan http://www.nichd.nih.gov/. The aim of the program is to conduct a wide range of research, both basic and applied, with the ultimate goal of developing knowledge that may lead to clinically useful products to regulate male fertility. The proposed research involves exploration of the epididymis and testis to identify specific targets that can be exploited for fertility regulation. The RFA will support research on novel approaches to male contraception including, but not limited to, research on epididymal function, spermatogenesis, and regulation of germ cell apoptosis.
