NYC has the highest appropriations of NIH funding in the country. SU should look to a NYC hospital system for an affiliation, as I assume it would be far too costly and competitive to do alone. Cornell has done this in part through affiliation with NY Presbyterian Hospital. Both Weill Cornell Medical College and Columbia University Medical Center are tied to Presby  NIH funds individual labs or scientists, not really the school. Grants are not typically more than $1million and I believe limited to $8 million. The school has to attract the scientists who will pursue and win grants. This is why NYC is so successful. Philadelphia, which is crushing the academic R&D market right now does this through PennMed (UPenn), and CHoP and to a much lesser extent TJU, and Temple. Drexel isn’t really doing the research as much as acting as the landlord for the private research industry. This is how MIT got the market started in Cambridge MA. They fostered private industry to improve job placement for grads and researchers at MIT that in turn boosts enrollment and selectivity. It took them about 50 years to really see it bear fruit. Prior to that, MIT research supported military research for the war effort (1940’s). MIT and the Bell Labs in NJ.
