Could you expand on that? I’m French, and even though I’m not involved in research I notice that: 1. French researchers are very underfunded 2. Somehow they’re still pretty good at building a lab with duct tape and string. But all the good metascience articles are written in English and focus on the US, so I have no clue how research funding in France has evolved over time, what’s been getting worse or better, etc., and I’d like to know more.
That used to be the French model, which imo kick way above its (abysmal) low funding.

That also was, naturally, the model in the Soviet Union, with orgs called “scientific research institutes”. https://www.jstor.org/stable/284836
