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.

The MOCS program has posted a separate Special Notice (SN) ARPA-H-SN-26-141 that provides information about Proposers' Day.

It is recommended that proposers and potential collaborators (clinical partners, malpractice attorneys, regulatory consultants, CROs, etc.) submit a teaming profile as soon as possible to form the best teams possible. Teaming profiles can be submitted at solutions.arpa-h.gov/teaming.
