On June 11, 2018, Salk\u2019s Board of Trustees met to discuss the findings of the Institute\u2019s investigation into allegations against Dr. Inder Verma. Our commitment from the outset has been to undertake an investigatory process that is thorough and impartial and to take action as appropriate. Although we will not comment on the details of this confidential personnel matter, we wanted to share with you the outcome of this process.<\/p>\n

Based on the findings of the investigator, the Institute has considered appropriate responsive action. Last week, prior to the board concluding its discussions regarding the investigation and taking formal action, Dr. Verma tendered his unconditional resignation. This morning, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to accept it.<\/p>\n

As we have acknowledged, this has been a challenging time for the Institute. We have been heartened by the way the Salk community has come together and worked together to face these challenges.<\/p>\n

When we signed on to be part of the Salk, we signed on to Jonas Salk\u2019s bold mission to better humanity. And no humanistic value can be more important than respectful, fair treatment of each and every person \u2013 not just on our campus, but in all walks of our lives. <\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n

Dan Lewis, Chair, Board of Trustees<\/p>\n

Rusty Gage, President<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","faculty":[],"disease-research":[],"class_list":["post-18191","disclosure","type-disclosure","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nMessage from the Chairman of the Board and the President - Salk Institute for Biological Studies<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/de\/news-release\/message-from-the-chairman-of-the-board-and-president\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"de_DE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Message from the Chairman of the Board and the President - Salk Institute for Biological Studies\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"On June 11, 2018, Salk\u2019s Board of Trustees met to discuss the findings of the Institute\u2019s investigation into allegations against Dr. Inder Verma.
