We are saddened to share that Suzanne Bourgeois, Salk professor emerita, founding member of the Institute, and pioneer in gene regulation research has passed away at the age of 94. Suzanne helped shape Salk from its earliest days. After training in Brussels and Paris, she moved to La Jolla in 1963 at the request of Jonas Salk, alongside her husband, Melvin “Mel” Cohn, to help build the Institute. As the founder of Salk’s Regulatory Biology Laboratory, Suzanne was a pioneer in gene regulation research. She studied how cells turn genes “on” and “off” using the bacterial lac operon as a model system, demonstrating that the lac repressor is a protein and, for the first time, characterizing the interaction between a regulatory protein and DNA. Her later work expanded into gene regulation in animal cells and identified compounds that could help reverse multidrug resistance in cancer. Suzanne’s legacy is woven into Salk’s science, history, and community. She will be deeply missed. We extend our heartfelt condolences to her family, friends, and colleagues. salk.edu/news-release/s… #SalkInstitute

Take a look into the year 2000 time capsule: a milestone in plant science 🌱 Arabidopsis thaliana—a small flowering mustard—became the first plant to have its entire genome sequenced, transforming the field of plant biology. Salk scientist Joseph Ecker co-led the international Arabidopsis Genome Initiative and sequenced one of the plant’s five chromosomes, while the late Joanne Chory advised the national effort. That breakthrough laid the foundation for Salk’s Harnessing Plants Initiative, which has now sequenced more than 900 plant genomes. Today, Salk scientists are using this knowledge to develop improved varieties of wheat, rice, corn, and other staple crops—advancing nutrient use, drought tolerance, and disease resistance.
