The Organization recognizes the effect of uncertain income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained, and changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Organization has evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of August 31, 2016, the Organization does not have any significant uncertain tax positions for which a reserve would be necessary.”

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Boundaries of Life (BOL)The Boundaries of Life (BOL) Initiative seeks to uncover highly divergent forms of life on earth and in doing so to advance microbiology and fundamental unanswered questions in biology, including: 1) What are the fundamental parameters and bounds of life? 2) Has life originated more than once? 3) How likely is life to exist elsewhere in the universe? The primary objectives are to chart the currently unmapped diversity of nucleic acid-based life and to develop and deploy assays for the detection of shadow life in a range of specimens from earth.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Organization has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the state of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 27301(d) of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, respectively. The Organization recognizes the effect of uncertain income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained, and changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Organization has evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of August 31, 2016, the Organization does not have any significant uncertain tax positions for which a reserve would be necessary.
