Expanding contraceptive choice

Expanding the range of contraceptive options helps individuals to make choices appropriate to their needs and circumstances, allows them to switch from one method to another if desired, and reflects a program focus on quality and rights. This policy brief outlines policy and program considerations in order to establish and maintain well-functioning supply chains for an expanded choice of contraceptives: introducing new contraceptive technologies to satisfy the diverse preferences of women and their partners; overcoming access barriers to existing methods such as adverse economic and social circumstances, including gender norms; and maximizing the potential of expanded contraceptive choice by ensuring a robust supply chain and improving provider training and counseling

A highly diastereoselective chloride-mediated dynamic kinetic resolution at phosphorus on-route to a key intermediate in the synthesis of GSK2248761A

A highly diastereoselective chloride-mediated dynamic kinetic resolution at phosphorus has been developed to access a key intermediate in the synthesis of GSK2248761A. This procedure utilises a soluble chloride source and a cheap readily available chiral auxiliary. The practicality of this transformation is demonstrated on a multi-gram scale

Élargissement du choix des contraceptifs

Ce document fait partie de l’un des sept Résumés des preuves sur la planification familiale préparés dans le cadre du Sommet de la planification familiale tenu à Londres le 11 juillet 2017. Les résumés mettent en exergue les éléments de preuve et fournissent des considérations sur la recherche et les programmes pour améliorer l’accès à la planification familiale et réduire les grossesses non désirées. Les considérations relatives aux programmes sont basées sur les opinions expertes des auteurs, qui ont procédé à des examens documentaires sur la base des preuves existantes. --- This is one of seven Family Planning Evidence Briefs prepared for the Family Planning Summit held in London on July 11, 2017. The briefs highlight evidence and provide research and program considerations for improving access to family planning and reducing unintended pregnancy. Program considerations are based on the expert views of the authors, who undertook desk reviews drawing on existing evidence
