01What it does

What Vaccine and Gene Therapy Institute of Florida Corp does

Mission

The mission of the vaccine and gene therapy institute of florida (vgti-fl) is to "translate research into health" by providing a better understanding of the human immune response to pathogens and cancers and the process of aging.

As stated on its FY2018 Form 990.

Program

On february 2, 2016, the circuit court of the nineteenth judicial circuit, in and for st. Lucie county, florida entered the order appointing michael e. Imber as receiver for vaccine and gene therapy institute florida corporation (vgti). On march 31, 2017, vgti (acting through the receiver), the city of port saint lucie, florida (the "city"), and umb bank, national association, as indenture trustee entered into a transfer agreement pursuant to which vgti agreed to transfer its assets to the city subject to certain terms and conditions. That transfer occurred on august 11, 2017.

The first program described on its most recent Form 990, which lists programs largest first by expense.

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. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
