MissionThe Institute is a scientific research center dedicated to conducting basic and applied research to advance the understanding of human disease and the improvement of human health. The Institute fosters an innovative research environment with a multidisciplinary and collaborative approach to the discovery process - bringing together physical and life science researchers, clinicians, engineers/ and computational scientists to address the significant health care challenges of heart and vascular disease, obesity, and metabolic disorders through a multi-scale understanding of organ systems. Institute researchers have expertise in both experimental and computational disciplines. The former utilize the experimental reductionist approach to dissect the biological system into its molecular, cellular and tissue components. The latter use a computational integrative approach to synthesize the parts using laws of physics and chemistry to understand the whole organ. The Institutes multi-disciplineMissionDesc

Form 990, Part VI, Line 2: Description of Business or Family Relationship of Officers, Directors, EtNone of the Officers or Directors were related by family. However, two of the Directors had a business relationship with Dr. Kassab, as described below: Director Jenny S. Choy is a researcher at the Institute. Given that the President could control many aspects of her employment status at the Institute, the Institute did not consider Dr. Choy to be independent with respect to transactions involving Dr. Kassab. Director Demetri Andrikos is an employee of 3DT Holdings, LLC, an organization owned in part by Dr. Kassab. Therefore, the Institute did not consider Mr. Andrikos to be independent with respect to transactions involving Dr. Kassab.The Institute was formed in 2013 but did not begin operations until mid-2014. The Board of Directors was not active during the Institutes initial startup period. In early 2015, Jenny Choy, John Frangos, and Daniel P. Souza (none of whom had been actively involved with the Board, but whom were listed as Directors on the Institutes Form 1023) dropped off the Board, and three independent Directors were appointed to the Board of Directors, namely, Phil Himelstein, Darell Krasnoff and Steve Levine. At that time, the independent Directors revisited, approved, and ratified the transactions that had taken place during 2014.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review ProcessThe Form 990 was reviewed and discussed by senior management, the President, the Board of Directors, and outside counsel for the Institute prior to filing.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of ConflictsThe Board of Directors has adopted two written Conflict of Interest Policies. The first policy (the Financial Conflict of Interest Policy) is applicable to Officers and Directors of the Institute. Each Officer and each member of the Board of Directors is required to review and acknowledge their understanding of the Financial Conflict of Interest Policy upon appointment to office or to the board. Officers and Directors are routinely encouraged to bring any and all potential conflicts of interest to the attention of the disinterested board members for review.The second policy (the Research Conflict Policy) is applicable to researchers participating in any of the Institutes federally funded grants. Researchers are required to review the Research Conflict Policy and complete a training program on financial conflicts of interest in research at least every four years. The Institute takes very seriously its obligation to report any financial conflicts of interest to the National Institute of Health and encourages all researchers to fully disclose any and all potential conflicts for review by the independent members of the Board of Directors. To the extent that the independent members of the Board of Directors determine that a significant conflict exists, the following conditions and restrictions could be imposed: public disclosure of the conflict, monitoring of the research by independent reviewers, modification of the research plan or removal of the affected researcher from the research, divestiture of significant financial interests, or severance of the relationship that creates the actual or potential conflicts.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a: Compensation Review & Approval Process - CEO, Top ManagementThe Presidents compensation was reviewed and approved by the disinterested members of the Board of Directors in 2015, with such approval being retroactive to July 1, 2014.

The disinterested members of the Board also reviewed and relied upon the opinion of counsel that the compensation proposed to be paid to Dr. Kassab was within the range that would be expected for an employee with Dr. Kassabs unique expertise, performing the specified duties for an organization of the size of the Institute. The decision of the Board of Directors was documented in the minutes of the meeting where the compensation was discussed. Dr. Kassab and Demetri Andrikos (who was deemed to be an interested Director with respect to Dr. Kassab), both left the meeting prior to the vote and abstained from the vote.
