Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“We have no paid staff instead have a few volunteers to take care of the major responsibilities. We have grown significantly over the past few years and everyone is very busy. The level of explanation so they can give meaningful oversight is just not possible. If I have concerns I am free to consult with an accountant.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“We make these appropriate documents available to the public on request.”

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Header, Line B

“I realized that I had put total expenses rather than program expenses at a certain spot. When the information was transferred to California form the error was obvious. In figuring out why I had made that mistake I fixed a number of small errors.”

Form 990, Part XI, Line 9

“We spent for computers, software and lab equipment 11,063. The difference in our assets reflects both broken equipment discarded and variations in completeness of the inventory.”

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Part VI, Line 1C

“These leasehold improvements occurred last year but we not properly listed on last year's form which explains the jump in asset values listed in this year's form.”

IRS990/Desc0We provide a modern biology laboratory along with classroom space. Our mission is to provide science education and an accessible lab space for the public including people who want to pursue research. We served an average of 90 members a month. Members range from high school students (and the exceptional middle grade student) to those who have retired, from student to post-doc. Many have a non-biological background such as software or electrical engineering. Some work on science fair projects, use the lab to learn biology or to do research on an idea.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0We have educational Programs. BioCurious provides a range of classes, lectures and workshops for our members and the general public. They include beginner level classes that teach the basics of biology and lab skills to more advanced classes that include lab practice with sophisticated techniques. We have members doing DNA editing with CRISPR for example. This participatory approach to learning gives our members and the general public a safe place to work with cutting edge biotechnolgy tools.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0As part of our mission to democratize biology, we have created a number of community projects that are free and open to the public. Community projects at BioCurious allow any interested person to experience the process of science and learn so laboratory techniques. This provides the foundation so they can pursue their own ideas in the lab. These projects are typically run by PhD-level scientists, meet in the evenings, and are very well attended. A primary focus of community projects is hands-on work in the lab. This provides an opportunity to learn lab skills in a friendly environment so everyone can contribute. We also provide Zoom access to lectures so that people from around the world can attend and contribute. These open forums allow anyone to participate in scientific projects. These projects can lead to publications. One project shared with Counter Culture lab, the Open Insulin project, has gotten a significant grant and will be forming it's own organization.
