UPDATE (5/17/2022): This update revises this Special Notice title from Biointelligence and Biosecurity for the Intelligence Community (B24IC) to Biointelligence and Biosecurity Research Topics of Interest. 

The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) invests in high-risk/high payoff research programs that have the potential to provide our nation with an overwhelming intelligence advantage. IARPA seeks to develop new capabilities, matching the wider synthetic biology and biotechnology fields, ensuring the Intelligence Community’s (IC’s) capability to meet the biointelligence and biosecurity threats of the 21st century. This includes developing new ways to collect, detect, analyze, and prevent traditional biothreats while also addressing the promise and perils associated with the growing fields of biotechnology and synthetic biology. To address these challenges, the IC seeks to advance research across multiple sub-disciplines of biology. 

The information attached to this Special Notice identifies research topics of interest to IARPA and does not represent a call or solicitation for proposals. Should a solicitation arise from this special notice, it will be posted under a separate solicitation and/or Broad Agency Announcement Number and will not be linked to this Special Notice. This release is being used to inform the wider community of potential interests for future research topics. IARPA will not be accepting any comments or questions at this time.
