What constitutes a scientist? I read that you don't need to be in a PhD program, I am working on a quantum problem in a garage at the moment. We've built a Thor Labs optics lab. This would be amazing for us, Thor labs equipment is expensive and currently need a new laser. This would be amazing

We think we can be most helpful for life science companies, but if you think we could be really helpful still please feel free to apply.

No need for a PhD.

Brilliant, our end goal is an artificial brain. Simulate disease / Alzheimer's / Epilepsy . One of the experiments we would like to run involves mini brains. Filling out the submission form now.

I know it's pedantic, but the company is Thorlabs, not Thor Labs. Sure you've built a lab using their equipment?

Yes, I have been opening many boxes, bags, and munching on lab snacks. I just call them Thor anyway when referencing them. I will take note of your pedantic remark and asses my use of company names.
