Biomedicine is an academic discipline. You don't need a microscope to examine it. Here's a jar of physics, go and check if it contains any thermodynamics. Careful with that flask, it's full of chemistry!
Researchers say that alumni of the most selective colleges earn, on average, 40 percent more a year than those who graduated from the least selective public universities, as calculated 10 years after they graduated from [huh?-Ed] and found that 'attendance at an elite private college significantly increases the probability of attending graduate school, and more specifically graduate school at a major research university.'
