Scripps Research is a private, non-profit biomedical research institute founded in 1924, operating from campuses in La Jolla, California, and Jupiter, Florida. Its work spans computer science, biology, chemistry, and translational science, applying computational and data-driven methods to fields such as immunology, neuroscience, infectious diseases, and precision medicine. The institute maintains more than 200 laboratories organized across six academic departments.
The organization hosts several specialized entities. The Calibr-Skaggs Institute for Innovative Medicines focuses on drug discovery, while the Scripps Research Translational Institute works to translate scientific findings into medical advances. Its Skaggs Graduate School of Chemical and Biological Sciences is consistently ranked among the top doctoral programs in the country, and the institute has produced multiple Nobel laureates.
Scripps Research operates with a collaborative culture, with researchers working across departments to pursue long-term research questions. The institute's structure is designed to bridge academic discovery with real-world impact, particularly in areas like cancer, heart disease, and digital medicine.
