The Biden-Harris administration is putting millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars toward a research project that seeks to address racial, ethnic and income-based differences in vasectomy knowledge.
University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine professor Dr. Sonya Borrero is receiving over $1.5 million from the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) to develop and assess the impact of a “patient-facing web-based decision aid to support high-quality vasectomy decisions.”
The initiative specifically seeks to redress “racial/ethnic and income-based differences in vasectomy knowledge and access,” with the September 2023 NIH grant claiming “men of color and low-income men are far less likely to rely on vasectomy than white men and those with higher incomes.”
