Topics include diagnosis, epidemiology, hormones, hair growth and pattern hair loss, immunobiology, stem cells, morphogenesis, neogenesis and tissue engineering, genetics, genomics and personalized medicine, hair transplantation, auxiliary cells, and hair structure. 37533 32171 To enable young physicians and scientists to acquire additional academic or research skills that will further their careers as leaders in hair research, mentorship grants up to $2,500 each are awarded for training, dermatology or dermatopathology residents, fellows, or junior faculty to enable study with a hair research mentor. Both the mentor or the applicant must be a member of the North American Hair Research Society. Twelve awards were granted in 2022. 35476 The organization hosts a website to provide ready access to recently published articles or presentations on hair research and treatment and to inform researchers and clinicians about upcoming meetings pertinent to hair biology and research. The Seal of Recognition program was created to inform physicians and consumers about products whose quality and effectiveness are beneficial in some aspect to promoting healthy hair and scalp, in diagnosing or treating hair or scalp disease or hair loss, or in stimulating or inhibiting hair growth. A positive review will result in a Seal of Recognition granted by the Organization. 186018 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 7 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 IL X X Technical Registration Experts 6305783991 1932 S Halsted Street 413 Chicago IL 60608 X Angela M Christiano PhD President 2.00 X X 0 0 0 John T Seykora MD PhD Secretary/Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Antonella Tosti MD Immediate Past-President 0.50 X X 0 0 0 Neil S Sadick MD Board Member 0.50 X 0 0 0 Maryanne Senna MD Board Member 0.50 X 0 0 0 Natasha Mesinkovska MD PhD Board Member 0.50 X 0 0 0 Isabella Doche MD PhD Board Member 0.50 X 0 0 0 Wilma F Bergfeld MD Board Member (non-voting) 0.50 X 0 0 0 Maria K Hordinsky MD Board Member (non-voting) 0.50 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Medical Society Management 3915 Highknob Circle Naperville IL 60564 205741 1 43950 278498 322448 Meetings 900099 36934 36934 Other Education Progra 900099 19000 19000 Seal of Acceptance 900099 10000 10000 Journey to JAKS less c 900099 6550 6550 72484 4721 4721 Miscellaneous 900099 1724 1724 1724 401377 74208 0 4721 X 32171 32171 50853 12012 35928 2913 1749 1749 37112 37112 88248 38716 45817 3715 1007 1007 13536 4050 9486 1331 1331 17091 17091 68326 68183 143 1951 1951 Website 6339 6339 Dues and subscriptions 4700 4700 Miscellaneous 2818 2818 327232 186018 134586 6628 43111 554920 489619 147191 2489 1500 42641 255310 577860 958921 70365 48957 264450 571874 23563 44463 358378 665294 X 171227 293627 48255 0 219482 293627 577860 958921 74145 0 X X 1 X 0 1 0 X 67548 86450 90927 134515 53448 432888 45150 46380 49250 366665 341484 848929 112698 132830 140177 501180 394932 1281817 49000 69000 67000 112000 297000 0 49000 69000 67000 112000 297000 984817 151 38 28 587 4721 5525 5000 5000 151 38 28 5587 4721 10525 500 897 1724 3121 112849 132868 140705 507664 401377 1295463 0.76020 0.74810 0.00810 0.00490 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 Due to IFHRS 44463 44463 X 401377 0 401377 0 401377 327232 0 327232 0 327232 Part X, Line 2: FIN 48 Note from Audited Financials The AHRS has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service stating that they are exempt from federal income tax under section 50l(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for income tax has been provided. When applicable, the organization may be subject to an Unrelated Business Income Tax for income derived from any non-exempt activity. Unrelated Business Income is defined as the gross income derived from any trade or business regularly conducted and not substantially related to the organization's exempt purpose or function. During 2023, AHRS had no such income. The AHRS accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the standards included in ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the AHRS and has concluded that as of December 31, 2023, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The AHRS believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The AHRS is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The only tax years subject to tax examination are for those years within the statutory limits. 1 Mentorship grant award 16 32171 Part I, Line 2: For the Mentorship Grant Program, both the Applicant and Mentor must be a member of the AHRS. The mentorship grants are awarded to young physicians, veterinarians, and scientists to develop a mentoring relationship with an established hair researcher and to acquire additional academic or research skills. The grants are intended to be used only for travel and lodging, as needed to establish a mentoring relationship. A Post-Mentorship written report must be submitted summarizing the experience learned after the mentorship has been completed.
