> What does a perfect research institute look like? One that constantly adapts to the needs of different people and is open to all? One that fulfils everything you wished for? One that protects its staff from paperwork and helps them to create better science? One that’s fully funded, completely inclusive, and promotes creativity above all else? What would it look like, feel like, be like? How far do we dare to go in our thinking?
