Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Cohort Data and Biospecimen Access

Funds access to existing ECHO Cohort data or biospecimens to study a high-priority question in maternal and child health.

OpenNational Institutes of HealthUnited States

Some of the best answers in maternal and child health sit inside a cohort that already exists, in samples and records already collected. This notice funds using them, not collecting new ones.

What is on offer is access to limited identifiable data or biospecimens from the Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Cohort, a large, ongoing NIH study. Applicants propose to use that ac…
