Therefore I agree with you: if things turn out well enough for Boulder and Irwin, maybe Col. Kimmet might be lectured and change his mind; but as of now I think at least one of the two locations will go down ... and with it Col. Kimmet as well.
About scientists in Boulder: I hold it as likely that there are enough scientists (of biology and medicine), who could do research on the zombies; and I even think they do some basic research; but considering special rules that Col. Kimmet and other decision makers might have established, especially in order to prevent people doing experiments and risking too many lives etc. blabla, I guess that - if any - research would be very highly controlled and kept in check; also they would focus on the Regulars, and not on Little Ones. Therefore the yield of the Boulderite research would supposedly pretty insignificant.
All the best!
