About this award

The National Institutes of Health awarded an Other Transaction Agreement to Massachusetts Institute of Technology for Safe Agrochemicals: New Generative AI Strategies to Reduce Health Impacts, with a ceiling value of $52,961,309, on September 18, 2026. The OTA sits outside the Federal Acquisition Regulation and operates under 10 U.S.C. § 4022 authorities applicable to civilian agency prototyping and R&D efforts.

Performance is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with an ultimate completion date of September 17, 2031. The effort applies generative artificial intelligence to agrochemical safety assessment and health impact reduction—an extension of MIT's capability portfolio in AI research and biomedical innovation. MIT competes exclusively in full-and-open procurement without small-business set-asides and delivers this work through integrated in-house capacity; the source names no subcontractors for this specific OTA.

This award follows MIT's receipt of a $10.091 million NIH OTA in February 2026 for the Self-Powered, Transmitting Lacrimal Artificial Sensor project under the OCULAB program, indicating sustained NIH investment in MIT-led advanced research. Within the next twenty-four months, MIT faces $279.7 million in recompete exposure across 545 awards nearing completion, establishing material renewal and competitive risk across its federal portfolio.
