Under the direction of the Institute president, Joyce will provide leadership in developing and implementing Salk\u2019s overall scientific strategy, as well as overseeing research operations in support of this strategy.<\/p>\n

\u201cJerry brings an ideal mix of scientific, administrative and leadership experience to the position of chief science officer,\u201d says Salk President Rusty Gage<\/a>. \u201cHis impressive resume and breadth of expertise will benefit Salk as we venture into the future of scientific research and as we raise the funds required to invest in the people, space and technology needed to tackle the major health challenges of our time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joyce began his scientific career at Salk as a PhD student and then a postdoctoral scholar. He returned as a faculty member in 2017. His research program focuses on the development of novel RNA and DNA enzymes and their potential application in clinical diagnostics and therapeutics. His research has led to the development of the first self-replicating RNA enzyme capable of exponential growth and evolution.<\/p>\n

From 2014 to 2021, Joyce served as the institute director of the Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation (GNF). He served previously as dean of the faculty at Scripps Research, as chair of the JASON scientific advisory group for US national security, and as a member of the Technology Advisory Council of BP.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m honored to serve Salk in this important role. I have a deep affection for the Institute, so this is truly special to me,\u201d Joyce says. \u201cI\u2019m not going to be focused on the \u2018chief\u2019 or \u2018officer\u2019 parts of \u2018chief science officer.\u2019 It\u2019s going to be all about the science. Our prime directive and the overarching goal of the Salk Institute is to produce high-impact science.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beyond the responsibilities of overseeing the Institute\u2019s scientific strategy, Joyce says a crucial part of his job will be to emphasize the need to support the Institute\u2019s future through Salk\u2019s Campaign for the Future: Building a More Resilient World<\/a>\u2014a bold, five-year, $500 million effort to attract the people and acquire the technology and space necessary to expand and accelerate Salk\u2019s critical research activities. At the center of this goal is the plan to build the Joan and Irwin Jacobs Science and Technology Center.<\/p>\n

Joyce graduated with a BA from the University of Chicago in 1978 and both an MD and PhD from the University of California San Diego in 1984. He completed his postgraduate medical training at Mercy Hospital in San Diego and postdoctoral research training at the Salk Institute.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":35153,"template":"","faculty":[309],"disease-research":[333],"class_list":["post-35151","disclosure","type-disclosure","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","faculty-gerald-joyce","disease-research-genetics"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nSalk Institute names Gerald Joyce senior vice president and chief science officer - 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\/salk-institute-names-gerald-joyce-senior-vice-president-and-chief-science-officer\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"de_DE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Salk Institute names Gerald Joyce senior vice president and chief science officer - Salk Institute for Biological Studies\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"LA JOLLA\u2014The Salk Institute has named Gerald Joyce, a professor in the Jack H.
