About this award

The National Institutes of Health awarded an Other Transaction Agreement to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) on September 1, 2026, for Tissue-Engineered Hearts Using Multimodal Printing in Newborns (THUMPIN), with a ceiling value of $29,311,060.04.

This OTA sits outside the FAR and funds a research and development effort in regenerative medicine and bioprinting technology for pediatric cardiac applications. Performance runs through August 31, 2031, at Boston Children's Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. The Children's Hospital Corporation is a nonprofit pediatric teaching hospital and Harvard Medical School affiliate operating as a federal research institution, conducting translational science and biomedical research for the federal government. The OTA represents a departure from the institution's primary portfolio of NIH research grants and cooperative agreements, extending into the transaction-based mechanism. As a leading pediatric research center with substantial prior NIH funding across cardiovascular disease, developmental biology, and regenerative medicine, Boston Children's Hospital brings relevant capability in multi-site translational research and clinical trial execution. Subcontractors or academic partners, if named in the award documentation, are not identified in the available source material.
