National and organizational patterns of Nobel laureate careers in physiology/medicine, physics, and chemistry

Abstract: This paper examines the distribution of Nobel laureates in Physiology/Medicine, Physics, and Chemistry across countries and research organizations. We provide basic information about where future laureates received their education and/or conducted their research, then present heat maps depicting country and organizational specialization patterns. In addition, we identify the organizational ultra-elite in science: universities and research institutes that show continuously above-average numbers of future laurea… Show more

“…In addition, waiting time from the published research having the discovery and/ or scientific advance to the year of the award of Nobel Prize is about 22 years. Instead, Heinze and Fuchs (2022) investigate the spatial distribution of Nobel Laureates in medicine, physics and chemistry across countries and show that four countries support mainly the education leading to be awarded of a Nobel Prize: the USA, the UK, Germany and France. Results also reveal the hegemony of education in US universities for achieving the Nobel Prize, such as Princeton University for Physics, the Rockefeller University for Chemistry and Medicine/ Physiology, etc.…”
