RADx Tech Viability and Steering Panels: A Model for MedTech Translational Grant Review

RADx<sup>SM</sup> Tech's mission is to rapidly accelerate deployment of SARS-CoV-2 tests and could not utilize typical grant application and review processes that can run 4 to 6 months. Instead, RADx Tech leveraged methodologies developed by CIMIT and utilized by POCTRN as des...
