The Salk Institute recently welcomed two new Nonresident Fellows: Andrew Dillin, PhD, and Christopher Glass, MD, PhD. The two scientists join a group of eminent scientific advisors who guide Salk’s leadership. Dillin is a professor at UC Berkeley and a Howard Hughes Medical Investigator. He served as a faculty member at Salk from 2002 to 2012. His lab’s research on mitochondrial function and dysfunction in the aging process informs our understanding and treatment of aging-related conditions such as Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, and Parkinson’s diseases. Glass is a professor at UC San Diego, where his lab studies the genetic and molecular mechanisms that control macrophage and microglia function in health and disease.
