University of Chicago
On July 1, 2013, the 小蓝视频 formally affiliated with the University of Chicago. The affiliation strengthened both institutions鈥 missions of leadership and innovation in scientific research and education. It also built upon shared values and historical ties between Chicago and the 小蓝视频, which was led by University of Chicago faculty members for the first four decades of its existence. The 小蓝视频 is an independent 501(c)3 in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
For the first several decades following the 小蓝视频鈥檚 founding, when research and teaching at the lab was carried out solely in the summer months, faculty from the University of Chicago provided important leadership.聽 Five of the 小蓝视频鈥檚 eighteen directors, including the first two, were faculty members at the University of Chicago, and two of the 小蓝视频鈥檚 laboratory buildings are named in recognition of University of Chicago scientists.聽聽
Both the 小蓝视频 and the University of Chicago have reputations for highly collaborative and interactive cultures that draw top biologists from around the world. The 小蓝视频's unique convening power attracts faculty and students from well over 100 different institutions each year. Scientists from these institutions, like those from UChicago, carry out research at different times of the year in 小蓝视频 facilities. The many active projects and collaborations benefit from the 小蓝视频's reputation as a convenor of science, both nationally and internationally.
