The National Institutes of Health to Address Challenges Posed by COVID-19
Launches National Call for Ideas on Testing Approaches and Strategies
RADx is creating programs that will make it possible to rapidly scale-up testing across the country and enhance access to those most in need. While diagnostic testing has long been a mainstay of public health, newer technologies offer patient- and user-friendly designs that work with cellphones, for example, to lower cost and increase accessibility both at home and at the point of care.
