kind of ridiculous to write this without talking about janelia

>some interdisciplinary problems are difficult to address in existing research settings, and Janelia was built as a separate institution to address such problems in neurobiology.

>The center was designed to emulate the unconstrained and collaborative environments at AT&T Bell Laboratories and Cambridge's Laboratory of Molecular Biology. Researchers are on six-year contracts and fully internally funded, independent of traditional research grant funding.[11]

janelia is focused on a specific domain. an interesting domain, for sure, but the author is interested in quantum computing and that would be a shoehorn for janelia's mission at best.
