#InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience was earlier this week but celebrating the efforts to improve #Contraceptive access & options is for all year round. Everyone deserves access to #FamilyPlanning methods that work for them & people like Elena are helping to make it happen!
🧵Innovate FP researchers at @fhi360 are working on 2 exciting #contraceptive products funded by the @GatesFoundation & featured in the @nytimes. The 6-month injectable would last longer while the microarray patch could be self-administered & less painful.
