About this award
This federal contract award with ID HR001116C0138 was issued by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to Duke University, a private research university in Durham, North Carolina. The $2,799,942 definitive contract, which does not utilize a set-aside, is for the Biological Control Program - Phase I. This program aims to provide predictive, closed-loop, and generalizable means for controlling various biological systems and programming diverse system-level behaviors across multiple scales.
The contract involves a subcontract to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for experiments requiring a combination of mammalian signaling pathway design, cell line engineering, quantitative analysis of intercellular signaling, and mathematical modeling. Duke University, as the prime contractor, has a strong track record of federal contract and grant awards, particularly in the areas of medical research, engineering, and technology innovation. This contract award is part of DARPA's broader efforts to advance biotechnology and develop novel control mechanisms for biological systems.
