This public event marks the recent launch of the Campaign for Salk, the Institute&#8217;s first major fundraising campaign to support scientific research.\n<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nCamina por Salk<\/strong><br \/>\nThe walk will begin inside the Salk&#8217;s iconic courtyard and lead participants through a scenic route along Torrey Pines Road in La Jolla. Proceeds from the walk will directly support research in the areas of cancer, Alzheimer&#8217;s, Parkinson&#8217;s, healthy aging, diabetes, obesity and plant biology. The event will also benefit Salk&#8217;s education outreach program for students throughout San Diego.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Walk for Salk is $35 per person, which includes breakfast, t-shirt, water bottle and backpack. Children under the age of 12 are free.\n<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nExplore Salk<\/strong><br \/>\nIn addition to the Walk for Salk, the Institute is opening its doors to the public for the first time to allow exclusive tours of the science labs and the opportunity to meet our acclaimed scientists. Self-guided architecture tours and science talks are also available to our guests throughout the day.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nA health and wellness festival will be set up on the campus featuring family activities and a variety of vendor booths that include free health screenings from Scripps Health and Sharp Health.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nExplore Salk is a free community event, however, registration for lab tours is required.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFor more information, please visit:<br \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/es\/stepintodiscovery\/\">www.salk.edu\/stepintodiscovery<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"row\" style=\"\"><div class=\"col-md-12 col-md-push-0\"><div class=\"video-anchor\" id=\"video-U-u-Ej8xNbE\"><\/div><div class=\"embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9\"> <iframe class=\"embed-responsive-item\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/U-u-Ej8xNbE?rel=0\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><!-- .embed-responsive --><\/div><!-- .col-md-*size --><\/div><!-- .\/row -->\n<p><\/p>\n<table cellpadding=\"9\">\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<h2>What:<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>Step Into Discovery<\/h2>\n<p><em><br \/>\n5K Walk for Salk<\/em>, a benefit walk to support research for cancer, Alzheimer&#8217;s, Parkinson&#8217;s, healthy aging, diabetes, obesity and plant biology.
