| Desc | SEMINARS AND COURSES FOR LIFE SCIENTISTS SCIENTIFIC SEMINARS AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS ARE CRITICAL FOR THE TRAINING OF SCIENTISTS, ESPECIALLY YOUNG SCIENTISTS. THESE ACTIVITIES ARE CENTRAL TO THE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS OF ELITE UNIVERSITIES, BUT ARE ABSENT OR LACKING IN THE VAST MAJORITY OF EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN THE US AND AROUND THE GLOBE. BY PRODUCING AND FREELY DISSEMINATING VIDEOS VIA THE INTERNET, OUR GOAL IS TO DEMOCRATIZE KNOWLEDGE AND THE RESEARCH ADVANCES MADE BY LEADING SCIENTISTS AND OFFER TRAINING IN CAREERS IN THE LIFE SCIENCES. SEMINARS: SCIENTIFIC TALKS REPRESENT AN EXTREMELY IMPORTANT MEANS OF CONVEYING KNOWLEDGE, IDEAS, AND RESEARCH FINDINGS. ELITE UNIVERSITIES HAVE THE FUNDS AND REPUTATION TO HOST EXCELLENT SEMINAR SERIES, BUT SUCH INSTITUTIONS REPRESENT A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE OF EDUCATIONAL AND RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS AROUND THE WORLD. THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY HAS A MORAL OBLIGATION TO MAKE TALKS FROM LEADING BIOLOGISTS ACCESSIBLE TO ANYONE FOR FREE. THROUGH NSF FUNDING, IBIOLOGY IS TACKLING THIS OPEN ACCESS CHALLENGE BY FILMING SCIENTIFIC TALKS BY THE WORLD'S LEADING BIOLOGISTS AND MAKING THEM AVAILABLE ON-DEMAND AND FREE-OF-CHARGE ON YOUTUBE AND THE IBIOLOGY WEBSITE. WE ARE ALSO MAKING SCIENCE MORE "HUMAN" BY EXPOSING STUDENTS TO THE MANY DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES THAT MAKE UP OUR PROFESSION, AND PROVIDING A WINDOW INTO THE PROCESS OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY. BY WATCHING IBIOLOGY TALKS FROM LEADING RESEARCHERS, VIEWERS CAN APPRECIATE THAT BIOLOGY IS NOT JUST A SEA OF FACTS, BUT AN INTELLECTUAL ENDEAVOR TO UNDERSTAND SOME OF THE MOST FASCINATING QUESTIONS OF MODERN TIMES. THROUGH IBIOLOGY VIDEOS, STUDENTS CAN SENSE THE PASSION OF SCIENTISTS FOR THEIR WORK AND UNDERSTAND THE STEPS REQUIRED TO OBTAIN EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT A HYPOTHESIS. VIEWERS CAN "MEET" A NOBEL PRIZE WINNER AND HEAR ABOUT THE EUREKA MOMENT THAT LED TO A DISCOVERY THAT HAS NOW BECOME PART OF THE BODY OF KNOWLEDGE IN THE TEXTBOOKS. THROUGH THE LENS OF IBIOLOGY, STUDENTS, POSTDOCS, AND SENIOR SCIENTISTS CAN READILY LEARN ABOUT NEW FIELDS OUTSIDE OF THEIR OWN AREA OF EXPERTISE. IBIOLOGY VIDEOS PROVIDE ACCESS TO IMPORTANT RECENT RESEARCH ADVANCES AS WELL AS INSIGHTS INTO FUTURE RESEARCH QUESTIONS THAT REMAIN TO BE SOLVED. IBIOLOGY PROVIDES TEACHERS AT HIGH SCHOOLS, COMMUNITY COLLEGES, AND LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGES WITH ACCESS TO HIGH-LEVEL BIOLOGY TALKS AND RESOURCES FOR INCORPORATING THEIR USE IN CLASSROOMS. IBIOLOGY HAS CREATED FREE EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS TO ACCOMPANY MANY OF THE VIDEOS. THESE INCLUDE DISCUSSION AND REVIEW QUESTIONS, LITERATURE SUGGESTIONS, AND OTHER CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES. IBIOLOGY HAS ALSO CREATED THREE FULL FLIPPED CLASSROOM COURSE CURRICULA THAT EDUCATORS CAN ADAPT FOR THEIR OWN TEACHING NEEDS. WITH LASKER FOUNDATION FUNDING, IBIOLOGY ALSO RUNS THE YOUNG SCIENTIST SEMINARS (YSS), WHERE GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POSTDOCS APPLY TO PARTICIPATE IN A SCIENCE COMMUNICATION WORKSHOP HELD IN COLLABORATION BETWEEN IBIOLOGY AND THE ALAN ALDA CENTER FOR COMMUNICATING SCIENCE; THEIR FILMED TALKS ARE THEN POSTED BY IBIOLOGY. PROFESSIONAL TRAINING AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT VIDEOS: THE FUTURE OF BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH AND THE US BIOECONOMY DEPENDS UPON OUR ABILITY TO TRAIN AND MOTIVATE THE NEXT GENERATION OF SCIENTISTS AND SCIENCE-RELATED PROFESSIONALS. TO THIS END, IBIOLOGY STARTED MAKING FULLY HOSTED ONLINE COURSES FOR THE TRAINING AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POST-DOCS SEVERAL YEARS AGO WITH SUPPORT FROM THE NIH. THIS INCLUDED BUILDING A CUSTOM ONLINE COURSE PLATFORM AND CREATING SEVERAL COURSES ON DOING GOOD SCIENCE. THE FIRST COURSE FOCUSED ON ASKING A SCIENTIFIC QUESTION, THE SECOND COURSE WILL BE ON EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN (RELEASED IN EARLY 2019), AND THE THIRD ON SCIENCE COMMUNICATION (RELEASED IN 2020). WE'VE ALSO BEEN BUILDING A PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESOURCE CENTER FOCUSED TO HELP TRAINEES NAVIGATE THEIR MANY CAREER OPTIONS AFTER THEIR TRAINING. | Desc |

| Desc | VIDEOS FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC WE ARE INCREASINGLY PLANNING AND PRODUCING VIDEO CONTENT FOR A GENERAL AUDIENCE. OUR GOAL IS TO FOCUS ON DEVELOPING FILMS (SHORT FORM, FEATURE- LENGTH, AND SERIES) THAT ARE ENGAGING, ENTERTAINING, AND SCIENTIFICALLY ACCURATE TO CONVEY THE MOST EXCITING BREAKTHROUGHS IN THE LIFE SCIENCES. WE WILL DIFFERENTIATE OUR PRODUCTIONS FROM OTHER EFFORTS BY OUR UNIQUE PRODUCTION MODEL BASED ON STRONG PARTNERSHIPS BETWEEN SCIENTISTS AND STORYTELLERS. WE WILL FOCUS ON CONVEYING THE PROCESS AND EXCITEMENT OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY. WE WILL WORK WITH TRADITIONAL DISTRIBUTORS AND ALSO ENDEAVOR TO TAILOR CONTENT FOR DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION WHILE USING SOCIAL MEDIA TO CREATE DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE PUBLIC AND SCIENTISTS AROUND OUR FILMS. WE PLAN ON REPURPOSING OUR CONTENT FOR A VARIETY OF PURPOSES AND AUDIENCES. OVERALL, WE HOPE THAT THESE EFFORTS WILL CREATE BROADER AWARENESS, APPRECIATION AND SUPPORT OF THE LIFE SCIENCES. OUR FLAGSHIP EFFORT IN THIS SPACE IS A FEATURE-LENGTH DOCUMENTARY ON THE REVOLUTIONARY GENE EDITING TECHNOLOGY KNOWN AS CRISPR. THIS PROJECT WAS CREATED THROUGH DEEP AND ONGOING CONSULTATION AND COLLABORATION BETWEEN SCIENTISTS AND AWARD-WINNING FILMMAKERS. WE HAVE RECEIVED GENEROUS FUNDING FROM FOUNDATIONS NOT ONLY FOR THE PRODUCTION OF THE FILM BUT FOR AN ENGAGEMENT CAMPAIGN AFTER ITS RELEASE. THIS WILL INCLUDE NUMEROUS ADDITIONAL VIDEOS EXPLORING TOPICS BROUGHT UP IN THE FILM IN GREATER DEPTH. WE ARE ALSO PRODUCING A NUMBER OF VIDEOS FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC THAT ARE MORE LIMITED IN SCOPE AND RESOURCES FROM THE DOCUMENTARY. WE HAVE TEAMED UP WITH ICONIC JOURNALIST DAN RATHER TO INTERVIEW SCIENTISTS ABOUT THEIR RESEARCH AND PATHS OF DISCOVERY. WE ARE PROFILING SCIENTISTS FROM UNDERREPRESENTED BACKGROUNDS ABOUT HOW THEIR LIFE EXPERIENCES HAVE SHAPED THEIR SCIENCE. AND WE ARE PRODUCING VIDEOS IN CONJUNCTION WITH XBIO ELUCIDATING THE FASCINATING STORIES BEHIND FAMOUS GROUNDBREAKING EXPERIMENTS. | Desc |

| Desc | EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS TEXTBOOKS REACH LARGE NUMBERS OF STUDENTS AND INFLUENCE HOW EDUCATORS TEACH. WE FEEL THAT THE TEXTBOOK, WHICH HAS CHANGED LITTLE IN DECADES, IS RIPE FOR A BOLD AND PROVOCATIVE TRANSFORMATION. WE WILL PRODUCE AN INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY RESOURCE (CALLED XBIO) THAT FIRST RE-THINKS HOW TO PRESENT BIOLOGY TO STUDENTS AND SECOND INTEGRATES ALL OF THE TOOLS OF HOW STUDENTS LEARN, INCLUDING STIMULATING VISUALS, MOTION GRAPHIC ANIMATIONS, ONLINE LECTURES, PROFESSIONAL VIDEOS DEMONSTRATING SCIENCE IN ACTION, PERSONAL STORIES, RECENT SCIENCE NEWS, PEER-TO-PEER AND IN-CLASS DISCUSSIONS, PROBLEM SETS, AND EVEN SOCIAL MEDIA. THIS RESOURCE WHICH IS CURRENTLY UNDER DEVELOPMENT WILL BE FREE-OF-CHARGE, RECOGNIZING THE FINANCIAL BARRIER POSED BY CURRENT TEXTBOOKS AND THE RESPONSIBILITY OF MAKING LEARNING FREELY ACCESSIBLE TO EVERY STUDENT AND ADULT AROUND THE WORLD. XBIO WILL BE FOCUSED ON COLLEGE-LEVEL INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY, WHICH IS OFTEN THE FIRST ENCOUNTER FOR UNDERGRADUATE MAJORS AND NON-MAJORS WITH THE LIFE SCIENCES. XBIO WILL BE USED PRIMARILY ONLINE TO INCORPORATE AND DISPLAY MULTI-MEDIA FEATURES. HOWEVER, RECOGNIZING INTERNET DEFICIENCIES AND PREFERENCES OF SOME STUDENTS/TEACHERS, WE WILL MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO DOWNLOAD CHAPTERS ONTO SMALL STORAGE DEVICES OR FOR PRINTING. XBIO CONSTITUTES A PROJECT OF GLOBAL IMPORTANCE IN RETHINKING HOW TO LEARN BIOLOGY AND FRAMING IT AS A DETECTIVE STORY TO UNCOVER THE WONDROUS 4 BILLION YEAR HISTORY OF LIFE ON EARTH. XBIO HAS RECRUITED OUTSTANDING CO- AUTHORS TO WRITE CHAPTER NARRATIVES. IMPORTANTLY, THE AUTHORS WILL BRING "THE PROCESS OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY" INTO THE FABRIC OF THE BOOK. THEY WILL PORTRAY BIOLOGY FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF AN EXPERIMENTAL SCIENCE AND HIGHLIGHT EXCITING TOPICS THAT REMAIN TO BE UNCOVERED. A BETA-VERSION OF XBIO WITH SEVERAL OF THESE NARRATIVES WILL BE RELEASED IN EARLY 2019. | Desc |

| FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION | IBIOLOGY'S MISSION IS TO INTRODUCE THE LEADING SCIENTISTS IN BIOLOGY, HOW THEY THINK ABOUT SCIENTIFIC QUESTIONS AND CONDUCT THEIR RESEARCH, AND MAKE KNOWN THEIR PERSONALITIES, OPINIONS, AND PERSPECTIVES. THE ORGANIZATION IS INNOVATING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POSTDOCS THROUGH A SERIES OF COURSES THAT ADDRESS EXPERIMENTAL PLANNING, DESIGN, AND COMMUNICATION. THROUGH THEIR EXISTING VIDEO CONTENT AND A FAR-REACHING PROJECT SEEKING TO REIMAGINE AN INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY TEXTBOOK, THEY ALSO ENDEAVOR TO SUPPORT EDUCATORS WHO WANT TO INCORPORATE MATERIALS THAT ILLUSTRATE THE PROCESS AND PRACTICE OF SCIENCE INTO THEIR CURRICULUM. IBIOLOGY IS INCREASINGLY PRODUCING CONTENT FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC THAT HIGHLIGHTS THE SPIRIT OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY, EXPANDS THE NOTION OF "WHO IS A SCIENTIST,- AND EXPLAINS KEY BREAKTHROUGHS AND CONCEPTS. THIS PROJECT IS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE GOOD WILL OF MANY BIOLOGISTS WHO ARE COMMITTED TO MAKING THEIR WORK BROADLY ACCESSIBLE AND TO CONVEYING THE EXCITEMENT OF BIOLOGY TO A WORLDWIDE AUDIENCE. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A | SEMINARS: SCIENTIFIC TALKS REPRESENT AN EXTREMELY IMPORTANT MEANS OF CONVEYING KNOWLEDGE, IDEAS, AND RESEARCH FINDINGS. ELITE UNIVERSITIES HAVE THE FUNDS AND REPUTATION TO HOST EXCELLENT SEMINAR SERIES, BUT SUCH INSTITUTIONS REPRESENT A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE OF EDUCATIONAL AND RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS AROUND THE WORLD. THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY HAS A MORAL OBLIGATION TO MAKE TALKS FROM LEADING BIOLOGISTS ACCESSIBLE TO ANYONE FOR FREE. THROUGH NSF FUNDING, IBIOLOGY IS TACKLING THIS OPEN ACCESS CHALLENGE BY FILMING SCIENTIFIC TALKS BY THE WORLD'S LEADING BIOLOGISTS AND MAKING THEM AVAILABLE ON-DEMAND AND FREE-OF-CHARGE ON YOUTUBE AND THE IBIOLOGY WEBSITE. WE ARE ALSO MAKING SCIENCE MORE "HUMAN" BY EXPOSING STUDENTS TO THE MANY DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES THAT MAKE UP OUR PROFESSION, AND PROVIDING A WINDOW INTO THE PROCESS OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY. BY WATCHING IBIOLOGY TALKS FROM LEADING RESEARCHERS, VIEWERS CAN APPRECIATE THAT BIOLOGY IS NOT JUST A SEA OF FACTS, BUT AN INTELLECTUAL ENDEAVOR TO UNDERSTAND SOME OF THE MOST FASCINATING QUESTIONS OF MODERN TIMES. THROUGH IBIOLOGY VIDEOS, STUDENTS CAN SENSE THE PASSION OF SCIENTISTS FOR THEIR WORK AND UNDERSTAND THE STEPS REQUIRED TO OBTAIN EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT A HYPOTHESIS. VIEWERS CAN "MEET" A NOBEL PRIZE WINNER AND HEAR ABOUT THE EUREKA MOMENT THAT LED TO A DISCOVERY THAT HAS NOW BECOME PART OF THE BODY OF KNOWLEDGE IN THE TEXTBOOKS. THROUGH THE LENS OF IBIOLOGY, STUDENTS, POSTDOCS, AND SENIOR SCIENTISTS CAN READILY LEARN ABOUT NEW FIELDS OUTSIDE OF THEIR OWN AREA OF EXPERTISE. IBIOLOGY VIDEOS PROVIDE ACCESS TO IMPORTANT RECENT RESEARCH ADVANCES AS WELL AS INSIGHTS INTO FUTURE RESEARCH QUESTIONS THAT REMAIN TO BE SOLVED. IBIOLOGY PROVIDES TEACHERS AT HIGH SCHOOLS, COMMUNITY COLLEGES, AND LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGES WITH ACCESS TO HIGH-LEVEL BIOLOGY TALKS AND RESOURCES FOR INCORPORATING THEIR USE IN CLASSROOMS. IBIOLOGY HAS CREATED FREE EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS TO ACCOMPANY MANY OF THE VIDEOS. THESE INCLUDE DISCUSSION AND REVIEW QUESTIONS, LITERATURE SUGGESTIONS, AND OTHER CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES. IBIOLOGY HAS ALSO CREATED THREE FULL FLIPPED CLASSROOM COURSE CURRICULA THAT EDUCATORS CAN ADAPT FOR THEIR OWN TEACHING NEEDS. WITH LASKER FOUNDATION FUNDING, IBIOLOGY ALSO RUNS THE YOUNG SCIENTIST SEMINARS (YSS), WHERE GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POSTDOCS APPLY TO PARTICIPATE IN A SCIENCE COMMUNICATION WORKSHOP HELD IN COLLABORATION BETWEEN IBIOLOGY AND THE ALAN ALDA CENTER FOR COMMUNICATING SCIENCE; THEIR FILMED TALKS ARE THEN POSTED BY IBIOLOGY. PROFESSIONAL TRAINING AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT VIDEOS: THE FUTURE OF BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH AND THE US BIOECONOMY DEPENDS UPON OUR ABILITY TO TRAIN AND MOTIVATE THE NEXT GENERATION OF SCIENTISTS AND SCIENCE-RELATED PROFESSIONALS. TO THIS END, IBIOLOGY STARTED MAKING FULLY HOSTED ONLINE COURSES FOR THE TRAINING AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POST-DOCS SEVERAL YEARS AGO WITH SUPPORT FROM THE NIH. THIS INCLUDED BUILDING A CUSTOM ONLINE COURSE PLATFORM AND CREATING SEVERAL COURSES ON DOING GOOD SCIENCE. THE FIRST COURSE FOCUSED ON ASKING A SCIENTIFIC QUESTION, THE SECOND COURSE WILL BE ON EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN (RELEASED IN EARLY 2019), AND THE THIRD ON SCIENCE COMMUNICATION (RELEASED IN 2020). WE'VE ALSO BEEN BUILDING A PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESOURCE CENTER FOCUSED TO HELP TRAINEES NAVIGATE THEIR MANY CAREER OPTIONS AFTER THEIR TRAINING. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4B | MEDIA TO CREATE DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE PUBLIC AND SCIENTISTS AROUND OUR FILMS. WE PLAN ON REPURPOSING OUR CONTENT FOR A VARIETY OF PURPOSES AND AUDIENCES. OVERALL, WE HOPE THAT THESE EFFORTS WILL CREATE BROADER AWARENESS, APPRECIATION AND SUPPORT OF THE LIFE SCIENCES. OUR FLAGSHIP EFFORT IN THIS SPACE IS A FEATURE-LENGTH DOCUMENTARY ON THE REVOLUTIONARY GENE EDITING TECHNOLOGY KNOWN AS CRISPR. THIS PROJECT WAS CREATED THROUGH DEEP AND ONGOING CONSULTATION AND COLLABORATION BETWEEN SCIENTISTS AND AWARD-WINNING FILMMAKERS. WE HAVE RECEIVED GENEROUS FUNDING FROM FOUNDATIONS NOT ONLY FOR THE PRODUCTION OF THE FILM BUT FOR AN ENGAGEMENT CAMPAIGN AFTER ITS RELEASE. THIS WILL INCLUDE NUMEROUS ADDITIONAL VIDEOS EXPLORING TOPICS BROUGHT UP IN THE FILM IN GREATER DEPTH. WE ARE ALSO PRODUCING A NUMBER OF VIDEOS FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC THAT ARE MORE LIMITED IN SCOPE AND RESOURCES FROM THE DOCUMENTARY. WE HAVE TEAMED UP WITH ICONIC JOURNALIST DAN RATHER TO INTERVIEW SCIENTISTS ABOUT THEIR RESEARCH AND PATHS OF DISCOVERY. WE ARE PROFILING SCIENTISTS FROM UNDERREPRESENTED BACKGROUNDS ABOUT HOW THEIR LIFE EXPERIENCES HAVE SHAPED THEIR SCIENCE. AND WE ARE PRODUCING VIDEOS IN CONJUNCTION WITH XBIO ELUCIDATING THE FASCINATING STORIES BEHIND FAMOUS GROUNDBREAKING EXPERIMENTS. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4C | CURRENTLY UNDER DEVELOPMENT WILL BE FREE-OF-CHARGE, RECOGNIZING THE FINANCIAL BARRIER POSED BY CURRENT TEXTBOOKS AND THE RESPONSIBILITY OF MAKING LEARNING FREELY ACCESSIBLE TO EVERY STUDENT AND ADULT AROUND THE WORLD. XBIO WILL BE FOCUSED ON COLLEGE-LEVEL INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY, WHICH IS OFTEN THE FIRST ENCOUNTER FOR UNDERGRADUATE MAJORS AND NON-MAJORS WITH THE LIFE SCIENCES. XBIO WILL BE USED PRIMARILY ONLINE TO INCORPORATE AND DISPLAY MULTI-MEDIA FEATURES. HOWEVER, RECOGNIZING INTERNET DEFICIENCIES AND PREFERENCES OF SOME STUDENTS/TEACHERS, WE WILL MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO DOWNLOAD CHAPTERS ONTO SMALL STORAGE DEVICES OR FOR PRINTING. XBIO CONSTITUTES A PROJECT OF GLOBAL IMPORTANCE IN RETHINKING HOW TO LEARN BIOLOGY AND FRAMING IT AS A DETECTIVE STORY TO UNCOVER THE WONDROUS 4 BILLION YEAR HISTORY OF LIFE ON EARTH. XBIO HAS RECRUITED OUTSTANDING CO- AUTHORS TO WRITE CHAPTER NARRATIVES. IMPORTANTLY, THE AUTHORS WILL BRING "THE PROCESS OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY" INTO THE FABRIC OF THE BOOK. THEY WILL PORTRAY BIOLOGY FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF AN EXPERIMENTAL SCIENCE AND HIGHLIGHT EXCITING TOPICS THAT REMAIN TO BE UNCOVERED. A BETA-VERSION OF XBIO WITH SEVERAL OF THESE NARRATIVES WILL BE RELEASED IN EARLY 2019. |
