I need a city that could plausibly be decently large by the 2050s, with a vibrant biological/chemical/pharmaceutical/medical research community, but one that won't be missed (IE, one that isn't currently important and so probably won't be called on by metaplot or the random whims of the players). The original was Tokyo (actually, now that I remember, it wasn't Tokyo but a city nearby), but I think that's a little too major (and too JIS) for this.

Suggestions?
