History
Salk and Kahn approached the city of San Diego in March of 1960 about a gift of land on the Torrey Pines Mesa and were granted their request after a referendum passed in June 1960. Construction began in 1962 and a handful of researchers moved into the first labratory in 1963.
Notable faculty
