Quick Summary

The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) has issued a Special Notice for a Proposers' Day for the new BIOmolecular Grammar for protein Aggregation Modulation and Intervention (BIOGAMI) program. This event, scheduled for February 20, 2026, aims to inform the scientific community about the program's goals and scope. Registration is required, with varying deadlines for in-person and virtual attendance.

Program Overview

The BIOGAMI program seeks to transform therapeutic approaches for diseases involving protein dysfunction, such as neurodegenerative disorders, cancers, and diabetes. It aims to develop tools for predicting and modulating protein misfolding and aggregation, and to identify novel indicators for early detection. The program will feature two technical areas (TA1: Molecular Grammar of IDRs, TA2: Modulate IDPs) and two phases, each 24 months long, with proposals required to address both TAs in Phase 1.

Proposers' Day Details

The Proposers' Day on February 20, 2026, will be a hybrid event held in Washington, DC. It will provide an overview of the BIOGAMI program, its technical areas, and proposal structure. Attendees can submit a one-page "teaming profile" and optionally participate in 5-minute "Lightning Talks" to showcase capabilities and identify collaborators. The event will include overview presentations, lightning talks, and private sidebar meetings. Attendance is optional and not a prerequisite for submitting a solution summary or proposal.
