 The Tobe Na Med Research Institute is a research institute that claims to specialise in Historic Genealogical DNA research, specifically with the goal of finding genetic markers within historical noble families and their descendants. Amongst their stated primary goals is the discovery of genes which are related to the failure and success of dynasties, as well as determining if marriage customs of the historic era have created genetic division between nobles and non-nobles. They accomplish this goal by analysing the blood of the descendent of noble families, especially those who still qualify as nobles. The Tobe Na Med Research Institute is a research institute that claims to specialise in Historic Genealogical DNA research, specifically with the goal of finding genetic markers within historical noble families and their descendants.

 +===== Input =====
 +
 +The following additional input is necessary to continue:
 +
 +  * Opinions on bottom section regarding blood gaining / usage
 +  * What advantages does Tomas hope to gain (Access to chemicals? Laboratory?​)
 +  * What advantages does Alastar hope to gain (Tax breaks? Research outcomes? Training and Testing facility for ghouls?)
 +
 +
 +=== Alastar ===
 +
 +Discussed with ST (first group is directly available, second at a later point, third requires large N and actual research work):
 +
 +  * Counts as ⅕th of the necessary effort for raising to Resources :6: due to tax benefits and financial constructs
 +  * Can be a good justification for increasing Influence rating due to new acquintances in Berlin'​s administration
 +  * Can act as justification for establishing private security firm with exceptional permits and rights
 +  * Lab that can perform quick blood testing and research on demand without questions asked
 +
 +  * Can be a catalyst for getting new contacts and gettings things done in the medical sphere
 +  * Can be a catalyst for getting new contacts in the research funding sphere
 +  * Can eventually be used as a recruitment location for skilled junior scientists
 +
 +  * Can eventually act as an information source on issues regarding the city's inhabitants'​ blood and its quality

 Donations are a final source of funding, which may take the form of private donations, blood drives, charity events and personal equity investments by the institutes patrons. Of these funding sources, private equity investments,​ be it as money or as blood, are the default methods by which blood consumption is financed. See "​Acquiring Blood" for details. Donations are a final source of funding, which may take the form of private donations, blood drives, charity events and personal equity investments by the institutes patrons.

-=== Budget === 
- 
-The institute costs roughly 500.000 to set up and 41.666 per month (which comes to about 500.000 per year) to keep running. The setup cost are paid for by the patrons through either direct payment, providing of materials or by acquiring things through roleplay (such as the building itself). Grants, service fees and donations otherwise pay for the upkeep cost of the research institute, so no payment from the patrons is required to keep it running. ​ 
- 
-With some savings and the insurance, most minor calamities can be covered by the institute. However, some issues may require patron resources to resolve. The funding is enough to keep up with inflation, but expansions must be paid for separately.
