Mission and programs · 2024

• BIOREPOSITORY: IN A 2024 STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS, SURVEYS WERE SENT SEPARATELY TO THE CLINICAL ADVISORY BOARD (CAB), SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY BOARD (SAB), PATIENT ADVOCACY ADVISORY BOARD (PAB) AND INDUSTRY ADVISORY BOARD (IAB), AND EACH INDEPENDENTLY PRIORITIZED BIOMARKER STUDIES ABOVE ALL OTHER EFFORTS. ACROSS ALL OF THE ADVISORY BOARDS, NATURAL HISTORY WAS THE SECOND MOST COMMONLY CHOSEN AREA OF CONCERN, BUT AMONGST THE PAB, CONSTRUCTION OF RESEARCH STRATEGIC PLANS WAS THE SECOND HIGHEST PRIORITY. BASED ON THESE PRIORITIES, COMBINEDBRAIN HAS FOCUSED EXTENSIVE EFFORTS ON HOSTING A BIOREPOSITORY AND ORGANIZING PRE-COMPETITIVE BIOMARKER PROJECTS. THE REPOSITORY IS FUNDED AND GOVERNED BY MEMBER PAGS.

  Expenses $725,850 · Grants $8,000 · Revenue $428,224

• RENT A NEUROSCIENTIST: TO RESPOND TO THE PAB REQUEST FOR HELP WITH STRATEGIC RESEARCH PLANS, COMBINEDBRAIN HIRES POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWS, AND STUDENT INTERNS. THESE TEAMS STAFF THE RENT-A-BRAIN PROGRAM, WHICH ASSISTS WITH THE ROADSHOW, BUT PRIMARILY SERVES AS PART-TIME SCIENTIFIC OFFICERS FOR MEMBER PAGS. WHEN REQUESTED, THESE TEAMS REVIEW THE LANDSCAPE OF DRUG DEVELOPMENT FOR A GIVEN DISORDER IN AN OBJECTIVE AND ECONOMICAL WAY, RESULTING IN A SERIES OF RECOMMENDATIONS FOR MOVING AS FAST AS POSSIBLE FROM DIAGNOSIS TO AN FDA-APPROVED DRUG. THE RENT-A-BRAIN TEAMS ALSO ASSIST PAGS WITH GRANT APPLICATIONS, GRANT REVIEWS, LITERATURE SUMMARIES, DISEASE CONCEPT STUDIES, AND MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION. RENTA-BRAIN ACTIVITIES VARY WIDELY, AS DEMANDED BY THE PAGS AND ADVISORY BOARDS. FOR EXAMPLE, ONE TEAM HAS PREPARED SCIENTIFIC RATIONALE FOR ADDING MEMBER DISORDERS TO DIAGNOSTIC MICROARRAYS, ANOTHER HAS PREPARED APPLICATIONS FOR ICD-10 CODES, AND ANOTHER HAS DRAFTED A SURVEY OF TOILETING ABILITIES TO BE PILOTED ACROSS NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS, AMONGST MANY OTHER PROJECTS.

Listed in Part VII

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
