The J.R.S. Biodiversity Foundation was created in January 2004 when the nonprofit scientific abstracting company, BIOSIS was sold to Thomson Scientific, now Thomson Reuters. The proceeds from that sale were applied to fund an endowment and create a new grant-making foundation that carried on the tradition of making biological knowledge accessible and useful. Our name reflects our current mission t

o enhance the knowledge of biodiversity for the benefit of life on earth and the historic legacy of the foundation. are the initials of Jacob Robert Schramm, one of the founders of Biological Abstracts that later become BIOSIS. JRS began grantmaking in 2007. The JRS Biodiversity Foundation’s approach to grant-making is based on on sound projects, clear milestones and indicators of progress and success, and adapting to the challenges and opportunities as projects mature. The foundation actively seeks to learn from the funding it provides to more effectively pursue our stated mission.
