扎克伯格夫妇资助30亿美元，全人类都将受益 - 扎克伯格 - IT资讯
据外电报道，Facebook首席执行官马克·扎克伯格（MarkZuckerberg）及妻子普莉希拉·陈（PriscillaChan）周三表示，未来十年他们将通过成立的实体公司“ChanZuckerberg Initiative”向社会资助30亿美元，用于帮助人类治疗和管控所有疾病。
去年12月份，在扎克伯格女儿马克斯（Maxima）出生后，扎克伯格夫妇宣布将把所持公司股份的99%捐献出来用于慈善和公益事业。为此，他们成立了一家名为“ChanZuckerberg Initiative”的实体公司来负责运作。据悉，作为此次30亿美元资助计划的第一步，是向加州大学旧金山分校新建的Biohub中心投资6亿美元，用于疾病治疗研究。
扎克伯格妻子普莉希拉周三在加州大学旧金山分校表示，“在过去两年中，我和马克与科学家进行了沟通，我们制定了一个共同目标，即：能不能通过我们的共同努力，来预防和控制我们孩子一生中碰到的疾病？”
普莉希拉还宣布聘任神经生物学家科里·巴格曼（CoriBargmann）博士担任“ChanZuckerberg Initiative”新的科学学部负责人。巴格曼被选为美国国家科学院院士，并于2013年获得生命科学突破奖。此外，巴格曼还获得了其他奖项。今年5月，该机构还聘任美国前教育部副部长吉姆·谢尔顿（JimShelton）担任教育学部负责人
据悉，“ChanZuckerberg Initiative”公司的结构是一家有限责任公司，而非慈善信托基金。有限责任公司可以给扎克伯格更大的灵活性，让其在处理捐款上更为游刃有余，确保扎克伯格能够决定其想要资助的对象以及资助金额。
比如在今年6月，作为扎克伯格和普莉希拉的首笔领投投资，“ChanZuckerberg Initiative”向当地创业公司Andela投资了2400万美元，旨在帮助该企业在非洲培养出更多工程师。
