    Whatever they can negotiate with their company or in the open market.

    What question are you answering with this response? Please read the question again. What is someone who finds a CURE FOR ALL CANCERS WORTH? I doubt that such a person is interested in negotiating a contract with a company or in the open market. This post was edited by RosieG at March 21, 2019 6:20 AM MDT

    Yes, people in all kinds of businesses have to negotiate their salary even those in the scientific research field.

  • Take an economics class if you don't understand how pay/to revenue generated scales work.

    Also, rarely. Especially these days. Does any one  person discover a cure. Just one person gets to.claim the credit and it is often based more on arbitrary standing, seniority, and position than anything.  Kinda like how Steve Jobs "created" things.
