      Pros

      Access to a large number of scientists working on a diverse set of biological problems. Tons of talks on topics that are both related and unrelated to your own research. NIH is like a little city with food courts a gym and even a barber shop.

      Cons

      Some buildings are not as connected to the rest of the campus and may seem isolating. The pay for postbacs is not easy to live on considering the cost of living in the area.
