ABOUT US

The Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation (GNF) was founded in 1999 and is located in San Diego, CA within walking distance to UCSD, Salk, and Scripps. The scientific mission of GNF straddles the line between academia and industry, and has three overlapping emphases: technology development, biomedical research, and drug discovery. Publication in peer-reviewed journals is an essential part of our mission. For more (slightly out-of-date) details about GNF, visit http://www.gnf.org.
