- Description
- DARPA Biological Technologies Office EZ Open BAA The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is soliciting innovative research proposals of interest to the Biological Technologies Office (BTO). Of particular interest are those proposals from entities (both small and large business) that have never received Government funding, or who do not normally propose to Government solicitations. The mission of BTO is to leverage biology as a technology to solve intractable problems. BTO seeks to leverage advances in engineering and computer science to drive and reshape biotechnology for national security. To achieve this vision, BTO is interested in a range of emerging technical areas, including but not limited to human-machine interfaces, human performance, infectious disease, and synthetic biology. The overarching goal is to develop, demonstrate, and transition biologically-based technologies as part of the national security toolkit. Proposed research must enable revolutionary advances in science, technologies, or systems. Specifically excluded is research that primarily results in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of the art. BTO seeks unconventional approaches that are outside the mainstream, challenge assumptions, and have the potential to radically change established practice. Efforts should be creative and agile both in terms of the technologies proposed and in the structure of the approach. Additional information on BTO can be found at http://www.darpa.mil/about-us/offices/bto.
