Banting and Best discovered insulin at a publicly-funded Canadian university. Virtually all major groundbreaking research is done at universities, through the use of government research grants. The pharma companies mainly make "me too" drugs and knockoffs that they can patent.

Oh, like no uni research happens in the US. I forgot.
