Center for Population Research (CPR)

The CPR is the primary federal entity for supporting a range of population studies that aim to: develop contraceptive methods that are safe, effective, inexpensive, preferably reversible, and acceptable and those that reduce the spread of sexually transmitted diseases; evaluate contraceptive methods, drugs, devices, and surgical procedures related to reproductive health; and ascertain the determinants of fertility and mortality.

Reason:
CPR produces important research studies on a number of key family planning and reproductive health topics in order to improve policy as well as the practical applications of reproductive health technologies.
