• The Nobel brain drain: where laureates were born, and where they won

  

  I drew a line from birthplace to prize for 760 Nobel prizes in the sciences and economics. 31% went to someone working outside their birth country, the United States gained 131 more laureates than it grew, Germany’s share fell from 31% to 7% after 1933, and Japan became a late riser that keeps its laureates.
