Economy and infrastucture edit

Because of its proximity to Heidelberg Dossenheim is attractive to people who work at the Ruprecht Karl University of Heidelberg or for scientific companies (the German Cancer Research Center Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum (DKFZ) and European Molecular Biology Laboratory)
I disagree with underlined text, Dossenheim is too far from EMBL and it is nonsense to live in Dossenheim and work at EMBL. People employed at EMBL are usually living in Heidelberg districts (e.g. Boxberg, Emmertsgrund, Weststadt). Next point is, that DKFZ and EMBL cannot be really called companies in the common meaning. They are enormous research institutes founded by government (dkfz) or EU (embl).
