Institute of Cybernetic and Organic Research



ICOR, the Institute for Cybernetic and Organic Research, located on the corner of East 26th Street and Mt Carmel Place (next to Phipps Housing, Manhatten) was founded back in 1983. It began as a small company, but through it's founder's (Jude Matthews) perseverance and unethical business deals, ICOR grew to stand among the largest and most powerful corporations in the country. It specializes in the development of cybernetic enhancements that improve quality of life, but they also had several military contracts which the NWSI is now continuing.

Now part of the Research Divison of the NWSI, ICOR now harbours it's former corporate adversary, Genomorph Laboratories. Atticus Gale, who heads the eastern branch of the corporation represents the N.W.S.I.R.D and oversees, Jude Matthews.

''I.C.O.R.'s renowned security force simply known as the I.D.S. (The Internal Department of Security) is still in effect but now under the control of the Research Division of the NWSI. This corporation representative of some of the world's most advanced cyber-genetic research, is the Eastern hub of the Research Division.''
