ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Institute

An institute is a place where grown-ups go to learn more and become smarter about different things. It is like a school or a place where you can study and get a degree. But instead of just one subject or topic, institutes can teach many different things, like science, art, writing, and history. Some institutes are very famous and important, like the National Institutes of Health, where they do research to help people stay healthy. Institutes can help you become really, really good at something so you can use this knowledge to help yourself and others.
