San Diego Biomedical Research Institute

San Diego Biomedical Research Institute is a small, nonprofit biomedical research organization with a collaborative, investigator-led structure focused on translating laboratory discovery toward improved health. Located in La Jolla’s Science Park, it operates within a concentrated life-science ecosystem near UC San Diego, Scripps Research, Salk Institute, La Jolla Institute for Immunology, Sanford Burnham Prebys, and clinical organizations. This setting supports resource sharing, scientific exchange, and cross-institutional collaboration with external researchers. Research is funded primarily by competitive National Institutes of Health grants, supplemented by private donations and foundation support. Fee-for-service transcriptomic support and access to advanced single-cell platforms create an additional pathway for outside teams seeking specialized capabilities.
