About the company
Trustees Of The University Of Pennsylvania Penn Regional Nanotechnology Facility operates as a sub-recipient on federal research grants, contributing specialized research capabilities to health sciences and biomedical studies led by peer universities and research institutions. A tax-exempt division of the University of Pennsylvania, Penn Regional Nanotechnology Facility has received nine sub-awards totaling $5.4 million in obligated funding across twelve federal grants since 2006, performing 75% of its recent activity as a sub-recipient rather than as a prime grant recipient.
The facility's research footprint concentrates in health and life sciences. The National Institutes of Health represents 58% of the award count (seven awards across the National Institute on Aging, the National Cancer Institute, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, the National Institute on Drug Abuse, and the Office of the Director), with the US Agency for International Development and the Department of the Navy Naval Education and Training Command rounding out the active federal customer set. By potential value, the Navy accounts for $80 thousand and the NIH Office of the Director for $10 thousand, though obligated dollars ($5.4 million) substantially exceed the combined potential value ($90 thousand), indicating that awards have been fully funded or staged in tranches beyond their initial ceiling estimates.
Recent sub-award work spans biomedical research collaboration. The facility serves as sub-recipient under Digital Promise Global's UGAIN (Using Generative AI for Institutional Navigation) cooperative agreement, awarded December 2025, where Penn Regional contributes to AI-supported student success tool design and dissemination. Earlier sub-awards include work with Weill Medical College of Cornell University on T1D progression research involving islet function assays and human tissue provision (October 2025), with the University of Pittsburgh on focal segmental glomerulosclerosis therapeutics optimization (September 2025), and with the University of Miami on multiple studies including Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factors research and African ancestries Alzheimer's disease studies spanning 2022–2025. A pain reduction and opioid safety study sub-award with the University of Pittsburgh ran from January 2024.
Activity shows recent uptick — one award in 2021 and 2022, three in 2024, and four in 2025 — concentrated in life sciences research collaboration rather than independent federal prime grants. The facility functions as a specialized research resource (islet provision, pathology, function assays, data analysis) embedded in multi-institutional research networks anchored by peer universities, not as an independent federal research prime.
