Wikipedia description:
The Worcester Foundation for Biomedical Research (WFBR), known until 1995 as the Worcester Foundation for Experimental Biology (WFEB), was an independent, non-profit, biomedical research institute based in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, United States, that operated from 1944 until it was absorbed into the University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS) in 1997. The Foundation was best known for the development and early testing of an effective and convenient oral contraceptive pill that could be taken daily by women — a transformative development in birth control, women's health, and medicine and society more broadly.
