Solicitation # DARPA-PS-26-137
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Biological Technologies Office has issued solicitation DARPA-PS-26-137 for the Firefox program, which aims to develop a 100-channel, non-invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) featuring 50-micron spatial and 100-microsecond temporal resolution. The program is divided into two primary technical areas: the development of components for dynamic rastering and scanning of coherent optical signals to target multiple regions of interest, and the creation of data processing architectures beyond the digital domain to manage high data rates and computational burdens. This 36-month effort is structured across three phases, with anticipated funding for multiple awards ranging between 4 million and 7 million dollars. The procurement is conducted as an Other Transaction for Prototype, utilizing a model agreement rather than standard FAR clauses, though it requires CMMC Level 1 self-assessment for safeguarding federal contract information. The selection process is based on a two-step submission: an initial abstract due October 19, 2026, followed by an invitation to submit an Oral Presentation Proposal (OPP) package by November 9, 2026. Proposals are evaluated as selectable or non-selectable based on the innovation and feasibility of the technical approach, relevant qualifications of the personnel, and the practicality of the budget. Performance is measured against specific technical metrics, such as a 10 ms full volume scan rate in Phase 2, with payments tied to a 16-milestone schedule and processed via the Wide Area Workflow system.

Biolab Mirror: Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) Digital Twin for Intent Characterization and Bio-Containment Integrity
Solicitation # DTR27TZ02-NV001
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency, under the Department of War, is soliciting proposals for the Biolab Mirror, an AI/ML-driven Digital Twin designed to ensure bio-containment integrity and characterize intent in state-sponsored biological research facilities. The project implements a Physics-to-Mesh Zero Trust architecture that cross-validates digital telemetry from LIMS, SCADA, and BMS logs against unalterable physical and biological laws, such as thermodynamics and metabolic rates. This system aims to detect clandestine pathogen scaling and containment spoofing by identifying coherence failures. Beyond its defensive application, the Biolab Mirror will serve as a cyber-physical sandbox for simulating multi-domain attacks against high-containment infrastructure, filling a critical gap in current cyber-range emulation. This is a phased STTR program with a total small business set-aside. Phase I focuses on delivering a conceptual architecture and a working software prototype, while Phase II, with a ceiling price of 1.5 million dollars, involves full project effort over a 24-month duration. Proposals are evaluated based on technical merit, investigator qualifications, and commercial potential. Applicants must be registered in SAM and the SBA Company Registry. Compliance requirements include CMMC standards for safeguarding controlled unclassified information and strict adherence to organizational conflict of interest disclosures. Proposals must be submitted via the DSIP portal by January 6, 2026.

Solicitation # RFA-AI-28-014
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) issued solicitation RFA-AI-28-014 to establish centers focused on the systems-level understanding of the links between infectious pathogens, inflammatory pathways, and chronic diseases. The program supports two types of centers: Chronic and Infectious Diseases Systems Biology Centers (CIDSB), which examine the bidirectional link between chronic and infectious diseases, and Systems Biology Inflammation Centers (SBI), which focus on the role of inflammation in chronic diseases to identify precision medicine targets. The primary goals are to develop predictive computational models for disease progression, discover novel drug targets and biomarkers, and create harmonized, FAIR-compliant cross-disease datasets. The total program funding is 26 million dollars, with an expected 10 awards and an individual award ceiling of 2.5 million dollars. Applications must be submitted electronically via Grants.gov by February 18, 2027. The proposal structure is multi-component, requiring an overall section, an administrative core, a data and modeling core, and a biospecimen collection and processing core, with additional requirements for research projects and optional cores depending on the center type. Evaluation is based on an overall impact score focusing on significance and the qualifications of the investigators. Awardees must comply with strict cybersecurity incident reporting requirements, notifying the HHS awarding agency within 48 hours of discovery, and must adhere to rigorous biosafety and human subjects protection standards. Applicants must maintain active SAM registration and UEI identifiers to be eligible for funding.
