A big thank you to the POs and staff at the NIH for working tirelessly to process awards. I am so happy to receive the NoA for a project that we have spent years building and I couldn’t be more grateful. Excited to learn more about how menopause therapies impact the urogenital heath! Thank you NIA!!
