- The National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded a $387,078 Project Grant under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) to The Washington University in Missouri. This award, with a performance period from August 1, 2025 to April 30, 2029, aims to develop a wearable, AI-integrated, multimodal uterine monitoring system. The system will combine electrical and mechanical signal analysis to offer a more comprehensive understanding of uterine activity during pregnancy and labor, with the...
- This $184,880 Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), supports the development of an innovative strategy to evaluate women presenting with non-specific symptoms of ectopic pregnancy. The project aims to leverage point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) devices, novel ultrasound collection procedures, and deep learning artificial...
- This Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) will fund a multi-year study to expand and refine a natural language processing (NLP) system to analyze documentation patterns in electronic health records (EHRs) from hospital birth admissions. The total award is $570,885 and the performance period runs from August 19, 2025 to July 31,...
- The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $624,998 Project Grant under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to Giner Inc. of Auburndale, Massachusetts. The award will fund the development and validation of an electrochemical assay and point-of-care instrument for highly sensitive, near-real-time perinatal monitoring of oxytocin levels. Oxytocin is a critical neuropeptide hormone for facilitating childbirth and...
- This $164,484 Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) supports research by Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. to study the role of placental NAD and its effect on the onset of labor, with a focus on understanding the mechanisms regulating preterm birth. The key objectives are to: 1) Define the disposition of NAD+ and its precursors across the...
- The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) has awarded Noma AI, Inc. a $305,292 Project Grant under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to develop a real-time, automated, AI-powered risk assessment software solution for maternal hemorrhage. Maternal hemorrhage is a leading cause of maternal mortality and morbidity, with significant disparities in risk, especially for Black mothers. The funding will support a comprehensive...
- The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) has awarded a $423,985 Project Grant under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to the University of Illinois to develop a novel non-invasive monitoring system for detecting placental dysfunction and associated pregnancy complications. The funding will support research to utilize extracellular vesicles (EVs) circulating in maternal blood as biomarkers, using a "target recycling...
- The U.S. National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $766,982 Project Grant to Carnegie Mellon University under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The project aims to develop and validate a novel computational framework to simulate uteroplacental hemodynamics and placentation, with the goal of identifying metrics for early detection of pregnancy complications related to abnormal placental formation. This research...
- The Project Grant award of $245,157 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), CFDA 93.865 Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program, will develop an artificial intelligence (AI) model to automate the detection of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) on ultrasonography. The project aims to create a deep learning model that can accurately characterize ovarian morphology related to PCOS (Aim 1) and integrate this with clinical and biochemical data...
This Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.865) provides $313,180.00 to Amahealth LLC to develop an AI-powered method for accurately predicting the onset of labor in pregnant women. The 8-month project aims to enhance the team's existing work by using deep learning on maternal physiological data from wearable sensors to create a real-time tool that can provide families and care providers with more personalized and actionable predictions of when labor will begin. This innovation seeks to improve birth planning and reduce risks for high-risk or rural pregnancies. The project was awarded on September 17, 2025 and is scheduled for completion by April 30, 2026.
