Like a Research University

There are nearly half a dozen detectors and hence research groups at Large Hadron Collider at European Center for Nuclear Research (CERN) at Geneva.
A group might contain 1500 scientists.
Ken Bloom puts the things in perspective by telling that it is like a research university in its own right.
Compare the number with the total number of university faculty at AMU that is around 1200.
