The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) Making Obstetric Care Smart (MOCS) program aims to launch a new era of data-driven maternity care— transforming labor and delivery decision making from guesswork into one of objective insight and individually tailored care. These innovations will equip both clinicians and families with the clarity and confidence needed for safer births. Interested parties are invited to review the attached MOCS Innovative Solutions Opening (ISO) ARPA-H-SOL-26-143.
