I think you see my trend. I work. I work and I have been working, so here is picture of the administrative buildings of the Max-Delbruck Center for Molecular Medicine. The MDC campus in Berlin-Buch is actually quite large especially for Europe (I was told). Large by European standards is nothing. I can walk across the campus in less than 15 minutes at a leisurely pace so don't worry U of A, you're still the mammoth. However, I quite like the campus ( they devoted a part of the budget to art, which adds a nice touch, although occasionally if you stop to look, you wonder what the artists were thinking about when they made these sculptures...) The MDC houses many research groups and buildings including one called Biotech Park (I pay rent there, but I keep expecting an amusement park every time I step in).
When I first arrived in Buch, my PI told me about how the MDC started... It was a long long time ago or maybe not so long when the plague was rampaging across Germany, those who contracted the disease were sent here to the outskirts of Berlin to be treated and naturally research and medicine go hand in hand so more and more scientists came out to Buch--- the cowless outskirts of Berlin.
