the opening take
This slice touches 6 organizations and 16 activities — THE J DAVID GLADSTONE INSTITUTES, THE TRANSLATIONAL GENOMICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, THE TRANSLATIONAL GENOMICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOUNDATION, ALZHEIMER'S RESEARCH AND and others. Activity concentrates in Arizona (83%) and California (17%). The field's most common shared approach is "Biological Pathways to Prevention", run by 1 orgs.
THE J DAVID GLADSTONE INSTITUTES and THE TRANSLATIONAL GENOMICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE hold roughly a third of all activity — know those first.

gap signals

Concrete structural gaps — method mix, geographic concentration, coalition density, funder diversity. Evidence is cited from the slice's own numbers.

geography

Orange headquarters dots are sized by how many grantees are based in the state. Green circles mark real locations these orgs say they serve — from city-level populations in this slice's impact_map_populations data. Toggle layers at the bottom right.

how the field thinks

strategies in this slice

Theories of action extracted from the orgs in this slice. The count is how many orgs cite each one — a strategy run by many orgs in common is a through-line; one cited by a single org is still surfaced so the reader can gauge the full spread.

Entities these orgs explicitly call out as partners, coalition members, or networks. Unlike the strategy-sharing graph below (which is inferred from shared approaches), these are relationships the orgs claim on their own sites.

where the field connects

strategy-sharing network

Inferred from shared theories of action: each line connects an org to a strategy it runs. Organizations that share many strategies cluster through the same nodes — funders can spot the field's structural bridges.

scale of the field

rollup metrics

Aggregated scale claims from orgs in the slice. Treat as a floor, not a ceiling — many orgs don't publish these numbers, so totals underrepresent real reach. Extreme outliers (often unit-mismatches upstream) are filtered out.
