Description

The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to stimulate the development of new model systems and/or the thorough characterization of the ovarian phenotype of existing models of fragile X associated premature ovarian insufficiency (FX-POI). New and well-characterized models of FX-POI will help us to answer fundamental questions about the role of the FMR1 repeat expansion in ovarian function and reproductive aging, and allow the field to advance into evidence based clinical research on fragile X pre-mutation carriers who are at risk for POI.
