About the company
The Francis Crick Institute LIMITED Research Division, a foreign government foundation headquartered in London, United Kingdom, receives federal research grants from U.S. National Institutes of Health institutes and the Department of the Army as a prime recipient, with no federal contract footprint. The vendor operates as a biomedical research performer rather than a contractor, holding four prime federal grants (57% of recent awards) and three sub-awards under University of Pittsburgh as prime grantee (43%), focused on structural virology, connectomics imaging, and oncology biomarker research.
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) dominates the customer base, funding four awards across the vendor's federal footprint. A $150,000 CFDA 93.855 Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research project grant awarded August 3, 2026, funds a two-year study (through July 31, 2028) investigating HIV-1 integrase interactions with viral RNA and capsid structures, aiming to define geometric and topological rules governing integrase filament positioning and refine the integrase-capsid interface to identify roles of individual amino acid residues. This work informs development of next-generation allosteric integrase inhibitors and may reveal general principles of genome encapsidation applicable to other enveloped RNA viruses. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a cooperative agreement (September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2028) supporting development of x-ray nanotomography for scalable connectomics, leveraging fourth-generation synchrotron facilities at the European Synchrotron Research Facility (ESRF) to achieve nanometer-scale 3D resolution imaging of whole mouse brains. The National Cancer Institute funded one award, and the Army Medical Command funded a $1.174 million project grant (September 30, 2022 through September 29, 2025) under CFDA 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development) to characterize biomarkers of growth and progression in small renal masses.
The vendor acts as a sub-recipient under University of Pittsburgh on the Pittsburgh Center for HIV Protein Interactions (PCHPI) program, with sub-awards dated June 13, 2023, February 19, 2025, and May 28, 2025. Recent activity shows three awards placed in 2025 and one in 2026, following sparse 2020–2023 placement. Two awards are scheduled for completion within the next twenty-four months, triggering recompete exposure. The combined obligated federal investment across all awards totals $5.5 million. The vendor's federal footprint is limited to biomedical research grants within NIAID's structural biology and virology portfolio, NINDS neurotechnology imaging, and Army medical research — no civilian IT, engineering services, or contracting vehicles.
