Jacobs, Chairman of the Salk Institute Board of Trustees. &#8220;His long time interest in basic research has led to his increasing involvement with the Salk Institute over the past several years. We are greatly pleased to have him join our Board of Trustees.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Cohn established his business career in San Diego in 1961. From that time through 1979, he was active in the development of over 3,000 residential units both as a builder and investor. He founded Data Quick Information Systems in 1980 where he served as CEO and managed its growth to become the largest real estate information provider in the United States until its sale to Acxiom Corporation in 1995. Subsequently, he acted as founder and CEO of DTS Communications until its sale in 1997. Since that time, he has been an investor in other business ventures and continues to manage his real estate portfolio.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nMr. Cohn is past chair of the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.theoldglobe.org\/\">Old Globe Theatre<\/a> and director of the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.balboapark.org\/plaza-de-panama\/Committee\">Plaza de Panama Committee<\/a> (Balboa Park project). In 2006, he and his wife, Karen, gave<br \/>\n$5M to the Old Globe to establish the Karen and Donald Cohn Education Center, the theatre&#8217;s first dedicated space for education and outreach programs. The Cohns have also supported the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sdopera.com\/Home\">San Diego Opera<\/>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sandiegosymphony.org\/\">San Diego Symphony<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bishops.com\/page\">The Bishop&#8217;s School<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/ucsd.edu\/\">University of California San Diego<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sandiego.edu\/\">University of San Diego<\/a>, y el <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mcasd.org\/\">Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Acerca del Instituto Salk de Estudios Biol\u00f3gicos:<\/strong><br \/>\nEl Instituto Salk de Estudios Biol\u00f3gicos es una de las instituciones de investigaci\u00f3n b\u00e1sica m\u00e1s destacadas del mundo, donde un cuerpo docente de prestigio internacional investiga cuestiones fundamentales de las ciencias de la vida en un entorno \u00fanico, colaborativo y creativo. Centrados tanto en el descubrimiento como en la formaci\u00f3n de las futuras generaciones de investigadores, los cient\u00edficos del Salk realizan contribuciones revolucionarias a nuestra comprensi\u00f3n del c\u00e1ncer, el envejecimiento, el Alzheimer, la diabetes y las enfermedades infecciosas mediante el estudio de la neurociencia, la gen\u00e9tica, la biolog\u00eda celular y vegetal, y otras disciplinas relacionadas.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nLos logros del cuerpo docente han sido reconocidos con numerosos galardones, entre los que se incluyen premios Nobel y la pertenencia a la Academia Nacional de Ciencias.
