Systems for Phenotypic Evaluation, Clinical Trajectories, Response, and Agency (SPECTRA)

Solicitation # ARPA-H-SOL-26-163

The Systems for Phenotypic Evaluation, Clinical Trajectories, Response, and Agency (SPECTRA) program, issued by the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) under solicitation ARPA-H-SOL-26-163, aims to advance the understanding and treatment of autism by identifying evolving developmental trajectories across the lifespan. The program focuses on the nonlinear interactions between genetic, biological, behavioral, and environmental factors to move toward personalized intervention. The scope of work is divided into four Technical Areas: Multi-Factor Analysis and Trajectory Identification (TA1), Population-Scale Modeling and Data Integration (TA2), Precision Intervention and Trajectory Testing (TA3), and Technologies for Communication, Quality of Life, and Embedded Assessment (TA4). Key deliverables include an operating federated network with at least ten live nodes, open-license data standards, a versioned model registry, and the development of technologies that combine clinical assessment with tools to improve daily function and quality of life. Awards will be made via Other Transaction (OT) instruments to proposers determined to be the most advantageous to the government based on scientific merit, capabilities, price/value analysis, and relevance to the ARPA-H mission. The program utilizes a milestone-based acceptance process with gates at 12, 24, and 48 months. Technical requirements emphasize privacy-preserving linkage, differential privacy, and secure execution. Proposers must be registered in SAM.gov and are required to use specific templates for Solution Summaries, with staggered submission deadlines ranging from October 2026 through January 2027. ARPA-H prioritizes entities that will conduct the funded work within the United States.

2026년도 국제공동연구 신속지원사업 신규과제 공모

Solicitation # 2026-1045

The 2026 International Joint Research Rapid Support Project, solicitation number 2026-1045, is a government-funded initiative managed by the National Research Foundation of Korea and the Ministry of Science and ICT. The project focuses on developing core original technologies for high-density parallel light sources, specifically micro-LED and micro-OLED, for use in AI data center optical interconnects. The total government support funding is 737.5 million KRW for a 16-month performance period running from December 2026 to March 2028. This project is classified as a National Strategic Technology in the semiconductors and next-generation OLED sectors, aiming to advance from Technology Readiness Level 3 to TRL 5. A mandatory requirement for this solicitation is the establishment of an international joint research network with Japanese research institutions to secure expertise in organic light-emitting materials and patents. Technical objectives include developing 32-channel arrays with specific performance targets: transmission speeds exceeding 1 GHz for micro-LED and 0.2 GHz for micro-OLED, and driving energy levels of 1 pJ/bit and 20 pJ/bit respectively. Final acceptance requires the submission of a functional prototype and verification through accredited certification bodies, official test reports, or witnessed self-evaluations. All research achievements and commercialization results must be managed through the Integrated Research Information System (IRIS), and the project is subject to technology fee collection and the 3-book 5-public rule for concurrent research limits.
