Photo Album: 50th Anniversary Symposium
Scientists from across The Scripps Research Institute gathered October 7 to celebrate 50 years of outstanding biomedical research at the institute with a symposium, "Advances in the Immunosciences: from Immunopathology to Structural Immunology to Immunochemistry."
Held in the Neurosciences Institute Auditorium on the Scripps California campus, the three-session symposium featured presentations by institute scientists, many of whom paid tribute to the visionary leadership of President Richard A. Lerner over the past 25 years.
"We heard eight superb presentations by our faculty, demonstrating the extraordinary quality of Scripps science and illustrating how collaborative interactions have propelled discovery throughout our 50-year history," said Gerald Joyce, professor and member of the Skaggs Institute for Chemical Biology at Scripps Research. Joyce organized the event with Sydney Brenner, a professor at the Salk Institute who is also professor of genetics and member of the Board of Scientific Governors at Scripps Research.
