Joining the Science Philanthropy Alliance

Cori Bargmann: I’m thrilled that the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative is joining the Science Philanthropy Alliance. The Alliance advises philanthropic organizations on how to most effectively support and advance basic science research — something that in these times, is more important than ever. They have already been great partners to us on some of our early work, and I’m excited to continue working with them to advance basic scientific knowledge.
