IIR Report: The 2022 Nobel Laureates

In 2022, there are no immigrant Nobel Laureates from the United States, a notable exception to the rule for over a decade. Since 2010, the Nobel Foundation has awarded prizes to 28 immigrant Laureates in the United States. Immigrants to the United States, a typically overlooked group of awardees, comprise a considerable share (15%) of all Nobel Laureates awarded since 1901. These 148 immigrant individuals to date, have made lasting contributions across all six Nobel Prize fields, achievements which will continue to benefit humankind for decades to come. In 2022, it is noteworthy that three of the Laureates are foreign-born individuals who have significant experience internationally collaborating with U.S. based scientists through professional activities such as co-authored publications, postdoctoral research positions, or visiting professorships.
