Celebrating the life of Salk Professor Joanne Chory 🌿
Last week, we honored the memory of Joanne Chory with a commemorative program and reception celebrating her extraordinary life and legacy on March 19, what would have been her 70th birthday.
It was a meaningful tribute to Joanne — a beloved member of the Salk community, pioneering scientist, devoted family member, and cherished friend. Her impact on science and the lives she touched continues to inspire us all.
Joanne won the Wolf Prize in Agriculture in 2024 for her "key discoveries on plant developmental biology of relevance for crop improvements.” The Wolf Foundation agreed to donate Joanne’s monetary award to Salk Women & Science program.
Learn more about her legacy: salk.edu/news-release/joanne…
