The Salk Institute• Founded in 1955 by

Jonas Salk with support from the March of Dimes

• He produced a vaccine that halted the spread of polio.

• He considered basic research humanity’s best hope for ameliorating problems that affect people across the globe.

Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.

Page 13: Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Programmatsc.org/Unprotected Docs/Teacher PPTs/05 LSSI ppt.pdf · Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Program

A focus on basic biological research• Basic biological research is

where the cures to human diseases find their origins. Today Salk Institute scientists are focusing their research in the following areas:– Understanding the Cell– Understanding Embryonic

Development– Understanding the Brain– Understanding Biological

Design

Studying plant growth hormones

The Scripps Research Institute• Internationally recognized science research institute and

Ph.D. Program• Lots of job opportunities with 270 professors, 800 post-

docs, 1500 technicians and support, 126 PhD students.• Funding from National Institute of Health and industrial

partnerships.• Great programs for teachers and students including

classes and summer internships.

Page 16: Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Programmatsc.org/Unprotected Docs/Teacher PPTs/05 LSSI ppt.pdf · Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Program

Hanging out with the Finn Research Group• Specialize in synthesis, catalysis,

and materials science with organic, organometallic, and biological molecules

• We toured the facility and saw electron microscopy equipment.

• Finn says that, “chemistry is architecture at the molecular level”

• Scripps scientists advise:- Learn serial dilutions,

stoichiometry, and look for internships early!!!

“From research, the power to cure”

The Burnham Institute

• Cancer Center– Cancer Drug

Discovery Initiative bridges the gap between basic research and therapy

• Stem Cell research– Damaged cell replacement

• Center for Neuroscience and Aging– Study cell damage and death

Page 19: Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Programmatsc.org/Unprotected Docs/Teacher PPTs/05 LSSI ppt.pdf · Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Program

What we discovered…• 2 Technology Centers

– Center on Proteolytic Pathways– Stem Cell Center

• We saw stems cells treated to differentiate into heart cell, and they were beating!!

• Micro-array gene chips• Cell Sorter – separates cells by

charge• NMR – determines the structure of

a molecule by using the magnetic properties of the atoms in the molecule

ISIS Pharmaceuticals• RNA based antisense technology to discover and

develop novel drugs to treat metabolic, cardiovascular, inflammatory, and cancerous disease.

• They produce oligonucleotides that will hybridize the receptor RNA to form a duplex; therefore, preventing the production of proteins involved in disease.

• This technology is advantageous because:– All targets are “drug-able” – High specificity for target RNA – Predictable pharmokinetics/ toxicology– Identical manufacturing

Page 22: Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Programmatsc.org/Unprotected Docs/Teacher PPTs/05 LSSI ppt.pdf · Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Program

• The entire step-by-step drug development process: from discovery to manufacturing of a product.– Main product is Vitravene (fomivirsen) which is used

for CMV (cytomegalovirus) which occurs in the eyes of AIDS patients.

– Researching the various ways of administering drugs (oral, aerosol, injection, etc.)

• Isis employees provided advice to our students:- Have a good attitude and hard work ethic- Knowledge of basic science, math, and technical

writing- Be an enthusiastic team player- Be flexible and willing to learn- Have the ability to deal with set-backs

What we explored at Isis…

Pfizer History & Core Technology

• Founded in 1849 by two cousins, Charles Pfizer and Charles Ethard.

• Pfizer uses chemistry and biology to manufacture prescription medicine by design, for human and animals.

• Pfizer then markets the drug to three business segments: healthcare, animal health and consumer healthcare.

• The first product was Santonin which was used to treat intestinal worms. The taste was bitter and so Charles Ethard, cofounder, who was a confectioner creatively blended the drug with the almond-toffee flavoring and shaped it into candy.

Page 38: Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Programmatsc.org/Unprotected Docs/Teacher PPTs/05 LSSI ppt.pdf · Life Sciences Summer Institute 2005 Teacher Externship Program

What Science has to do with it

• Many diseases, such as cancer, eye diseases, diabetes, depression & high cholesterol develop as a result of the expression of a protein.

• Pfizer drugs target enzymes involved in organism function, viral production, and/or protein production. The drugs bind to the enzymes and thus disable them.

(magnets)• TMA—uses primers and enzymes to amplify the

RNA of target

• HPA (Hybridization Protection Assay)—separates probes that did not bind to the target RNA using a selection buffer

• DKA (Dual Kinetic Assay)—uses a luminometer to detect both Chlamydia and gonorrhea bacterial infections
