I worked for a University in UK. Almost overnight... there was a mass dumping of analog equipment, particularly by the Biophys / Biomed groups.
Yes... I can say the experience here (were not in CONUS) was quite similar. Bio guys used to be a bunch with lots of sharp needle electrodes, sharper scalpels... and lot's, and lot's of rats (or what ever else they could catch.)... I'm still traumatised by what I saw. De rigueur for a bio path, was a first year one-semester course in into calculus, and in later years... one in intro stats.
Anyway... that's all changed... bio anything is now hard into mathematical modelling and big data... and so generates a demand for 'computerised'/computer-connected research instruments.
