What does it take to turn a scientific discovery into a life-changing medicine?. At Science in Action, guests had the chance to find out, getting an up-close look at how scientists at Scripps Research and its drug development division, the Calibr-Skaggs Institute for Innovative

The effects of research stretch far beyond the lab—and so does the need for funding. We are uncovering the roots of disease to develop tomorrow’s medicines. With your support, we can continue advancing science and changing lives, together. Learn more at:

Science doesn’t exist only inside the lab; it affects all of us in the real world. Scripps Research contributed to the development of 17 FDA-approved drugs that have saved lives. Our research continues to shape treatments for cancer, brain disease, aging-related ailments, heart

The next generation of progress depends on the next generation of researchers. Students and postdocs in our labs contribute meaningfully to our discoveries. Support helps grow our endowment and provide the tools, mentorship, and resources trainees need to build their careers in

Electricity to power equipment around the clock, lab safety systems, chemical reagents, waste disposal, and regulatory compliance are all essential parts of daily research. These behind-the-scenes costs may be invisible to most, but they’re what keep a lab running—and the

Tools like the MINFLUX microscope—which contributed to Scripps Research neuroscientist Ardem Patapoutian’s Nobel-winning discovery—require ongoing maintenance, updates, and eventual replacement. Maintaining and upgrading essential equipment allows researchers to continue

It takes a team to run a lab, and each role carries critical responsibility. From faculty to postdocs, lab managers, research assistants, and administrative staff, sustained funding ensures these teams remain intact, so the lab’s research can move forward without disruption.

When you support research, here’s what you make possible 🧵⬇️

We’re in the final countdown—#IBDCuttingEdge2025 is just weeks away!. This three-day CME conference will cover clinical trials, new therapies, surgical strategies & multidisciplinary IBD care—led by national & international experts. Join us Sept 19–21! 🎟️

Foundation models are stuck in the past, but they intentionally produce natural-sounding and varied responses. These can lead to hallucinations. We explore the limitations of foundation models and how RAG can address these so chat, search, and agentic workflows can all benefit.
