Mission Statements:

We are a nonprofit, all volunteer organization designed to encourage both professional and social exchange within The Scripps Research Institute, and with postdocs from other academic institutions in the San Diego area.

We establish and maintain a program of communication and information exchange regarding the Institution for all present and former Fellows.

We sponsor a visiting lectureship program attracting scientific leaders in various research areas.

We sponsor a Research Symposium each year for TSRI postdocs, grad students and technical staff to present data to their TSRI colleagues, and compete for monetary awards.
