β€˜The Untouchables’: How Columbia and N.Y.U. Benefit From Huge Tax Breaks (Published 2023) As New York City’s budget tightens, its wealthiest universities are bigger and richer than ever. Now, some officials think it’s time for the schools to pay more in taxes.

Seems like there is a new ultracompact #femtosecond #laser source for #multiphoton #microscopy in town! 50 MHz rep rate means a 2-3 m cavity if there is a single pulse circulating in the cavity - folding that into that compact of a form factor is quite impressive!
