Cracking the Code, narrated by Mark Ruffalo, is an inspiring story of vision, perseverance, and the power of science to change the world. Phil Sharp’s journey from a Kentucky farm boy to Nobel laureate embodies the American Dream and the triumph of entrepreneurial spirit. His 1977 groundbreaking discovery of RNA splicing rewrote the rules of molecular biology and ignited a life-saving scientific revolution, laying the foundation for an industry that has become a cornerstone of global innovation and economic growth – and transformed the health of billions of patients worldwide.

Following the screening, Dr. Sharp and Mr. Haney will join us for a thoughtful conversation moderated by BPL President David Leonard. This is a special opportunity to engage directly with visionary leaders at the intersection of science, innovation, and public gooGuastavino
