About this opportunity
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Biological Technologies Office is seeking revolutionary research ideas across multiple scientific domains through this Broad Agency Announcement. The solicitation targets innovative research not currently addressed by ongoing DARPA programs, focusing on areas such as machine learning/AI, human performance, materials and sensors, ecosystem research, biosecurity, and biomedical technologies. Proposals will be evaluated based on scientific/technical merit, potential contribution to DARPA's mission, and cost/schedule realism. Eligible applicants include a wide range of organizations, with a preference for high-risk, transformative approaches that can provide significant technological advances. The submission deadlines have been extended, with proposal abstracts and full proposals accepted on a rolling basis until October 9, 2025.
The funding opportunity anticipates multiple awards using procurement contracts, cooperative agreements, or other transaction agreements, with an accelerated award option available for proposals not exceeding $2,000,000. The research is expected to be conducted at the performer's facilities, with a performance period to be determined during the award process. Awards will be made under the Research and Technology Development program (CFDA 12.910), supporting basic, applied, and advanced research with potential military or dual-use applications. The solicitation encourages submissions from diverse sources, including Historically Black Colleges and Universities, small businesses, and minority institutions, with non-U.S. organizations permitted to participate subject to compliance with relevant regulations.
