Overview
Mission
Wikilife is a platform that collects and distributes health data over entire lifetimes, providing individuals and the global scientific community with unprecedented access to detailed records of health and lifestyle activity.the recorded data includes a detailed, extensive health and lifestyle information about nutrition, physical activity, mood, sleeping, healthcare conditions and treatments, laboratory analysis, medical imaging, psychological tests, iq tests, and even dna information.
What it reported doing in 2015
Wikilife is an open data project that leverages new technologies for big data analysis and visualization. Wikilife.org has a main objective: the collection, analysis and dissemination of health and lifestyle data. During 2015 we have worked on further developing the datadonors program and website. This includes working on the front and back end of our datadonors website. We have worked a lot on reaching out to the community to promote dd. Each user can have a control panel with info graphics showing their stats and can compare with others. To be able to receive all this data we have had to work constantly on our api, data structure, app and website. We also have developed a new app to sign in as dd user and syncronize your information to our website. Our main goal in 2015 was to focus on a data donation initiative/campaign.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- 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
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
