UPPCS Biology Gap Sheet: Biology and Agricultural Research Institutions.
UPPCS has asked 14 of these. 4 have not been asked yet. Lock the first list, then read the second: it holds what UPPCS has not used yet.
First, the concept
Match each institute with its city and main task. Agricultural research, medical research and industrial biotechnology have different parent organisations, even when they share a city.
A resource bureau conserves biological material or data; a research institute develops knowledge and methods. Do not confuse a headquarters with a regional centre, or an institute with a technology park.
