“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.”
Significant events
- “Institute of Reproductive and Developmental Biology, celebrating its 25 anniversary this year Trustees have given a lot of thought to the long-term future of the Genesis Research Trust and its research into the causes and treatment of infertility and the issues concerning parturition and birth. They have agreed to provide further investments over 5 years to establish and maintain three posts for senior scientist and or clinical academics to refresh and maintain the core endeavours of the Genesis Trust.”
- “The Trustees took the decision in the previous year to simplify and focus on a) Grant giving and b) the successful Symposia programmes at Imperial College. It also carried out a reduction in its operating costs to reflect this streamlining in a difficult, lower growth, investment environment while committed to preserving its long-term Endowment Capital. During the financial year, only £9,050 of grants were issued.”
- “The Trustees reported their intentions last year and Genesis Research Trust has completed the simplification of the non-scientific activities so that the Trust is now in response mode.”
