InGen Compound

"Is this how you make dinosaurs?" "No, this is how you play God."

- Amanda Kirby and Alan Grant

It is also where Ian Malcom found Dr. Richard Levine's backpack in the novel. The compound also had a geothermal power plant that stayed active. The manufacturing plant consisted of row after row of conveyor belts and automatic arms, loaded with sterile syringes, and test tubes. The plant had begun to have problems with an unknown prion virus now known as DX.
