On #InternationalWomensDay – and every day – we recognize and appreciate the women who make our work possible #AtAllenInstitute.

Happy Lunar New Year from all of us #AtAllenInstitute! Our community ushered in the #YearOfTheSnake with food, crafts, and a lion dance by Mak Fai Kung Fu Dragon and Lion Dance Association. 🐍 ✨

In 2025, our efforts #AtAllenInstitute drove remarkable breakthroughs in life sciences.

Proud of the teams and collaborators who make this work possible and support our quest to understand life for a healthier world.

I'm looking forward to all of our educational and uplifting #BlackHistoryMonth events, hosted by our BASE affinity group and enjoyed by everyone at the @alleninstitute.bsky.social! Affinity groups are an essential ingredient to our culture and community #AtAllenInstitute.

Both science and art are driven by curiosity, creativity, and a desire to understand our world. #AtAllenInstitute, we celebrate the role creativity plays in scientific discovery. Here's an excerpt from an insightful discussion I had with Scott Stulen, CEO of @seattleartmuseum.bsky.social.

It was an honor to host science leaders Marilyn Simons, Co-founder and Chair of the @simonsfoundation.org, and Bruce Stillman, President and CEO of @cshlnews.bsky.social , for a tour and great discussions last week #AtAllenInstitute.

When creativity is a value, you know the Halloween costumes will never disappoint #AtAllenInstitute!

We recently welcomed some very special guests - therapy dogs from Pet Partners!

Staff had the opportunity to take a paws, sit, and stay with some certified very good dogs.

Thank you to all furry friends and human handlers who volunteered to bring a moment of joy #AtAllenInstitute.
