What Global Biological Standards Institute LLC does
Mission
The Global Biological Standards Institute LLC ("gbsi") is dedicated to enhancing the quality of biomedical research by advocating best practices and standards to accelerate the translation of research breakthroughs into life-saving therapies.
As stated on its FY2018 Form 990.
Program
The Global Biological Standards Institute LLC ("gbsi") was dedicated to enhancing the quality of biomedical research by advocating best practices and standards to accelerate the translation of research breakthroughs into life-saving therapies. Gbsi provided a global, independent forum for government, industry, academia, and other stakeholders to increase awareness and use of best practices and standards throughout the research process. Gbsi supports the biomedical research community through four primary channels: (1) influencing policy: serving as intermediaries between funding agencies, academia, and industry to collaboratively solve problems and shape policy; (2) convening scientific communities of influence and impact: assembling work groups and task forces to generate practical solutions to the most vexing challenges to research integrity; (3) developing world-class programming and education: curricula and training programs combining community best practices with cutting-edge methods; and (4) sponsoring and publishing applied research: conducting bench marking studies and aggregating best practices to inform and enrich the communities we serve and the research they conduct.…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $5k to $0 (−100%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 3% · 2018 10%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.
Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
