The Scripps Research Institute

The Scripps Research Institute

Das Scripps Research Institute ist eine medizinische Forschungseinrichtung mit Schwerpunkt der Biomedizin.

Das Institut mit Hauptsitz in La Jolla, Kalifornien, beherbergt ca. 3000 Wissenschaftler, Techniker, Doktoranden und Verwaltungsangestellte und gehört damit zu den größten privaten und nicht gewinnorientierten biomedizinischen Forschungsorganisationen der Welt. Es hat Fachbereiche für Zellbiologie, Chemie, Immunologie, Molekularbiologie, experimentelle Medizin, Neurobiologie und Neurowissenschaften.

Darüber hinaus sind ihm angegliedert:

  • Das Skaggs Institute for Chemical Biology
  • Das Pearson Center for Alcoholism and Addiction Research
  • Das Harold L. Dorris Neurological Research Center
  • Das Helen L. Dorris Child and Adolescent Neuro-Psychiatric Disorder Institute
  • Das Institute for Childhood and Neglected Diseases
  • Das Center for Integrative Molecular Biosciences

Außerdem bietet es Graduiertenkollege für Biologie, Biophysik, Biochemie und Chemie an der Kellogg School of Science and Technology.

Das Institut wird häufig fälschlicherweise mit der der University of California, San Diego, angegliederten Scripps Institution of Oceanography in Verbindung gebracht. Beide Einrichtungen liegen zwar dicht beieinander sind jedoch völlig unabhängig voneinander.

Das Institut ist auch Initiator des Predictor@home-Projektes aus dem Bereich des verteilten Rechnens.
