Dates of incumbent directors
I thought of adding this as a footnote, but I'm not sure how to word it just yet, so I will add it here instead for the moment. When I added the incumbency dates, I noticed that there was a variance in different sources, with some counting the year that the new director was chosen, with others counting the year the old director left, and still others showing that the appointment of the new director and the exit of the old one overlapped. There were other factors as well, such as budgetary crises and WWII that may have left the lab without an acting director, it's not entirely clear. I tried to add the most accurate dates for incumbency from the sources that I could find, but I doubt they are 100% correct. Viriditas (talk) 17:49, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
