Overview

Mission

Society for mucosal immunology, inc. Supports research and education and fosters communication and collaboration in the field of mucosal immunology.

What it reported doing in 2024

The international congress of mucosal immunology is a biennial conference that brings basic scientists, clinical researchers, and industry researchers who work at mucosal surfaces together to discuss common and unique pathways of immunity and inflammation and to ultimately accelerate and improve patient care. Additionally, an annual meeting occurs each year to contribute to the advancement of basic, translational, and clinical studies relating to mucosal immunology at meetings outside of the smi biennial congress. These meetings may also provide a forum for society business to be conducted.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 89% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
