CSHL鈥檚 research faculty has a rich history of contributing some of the most fundamental discoveries in molecular biology and genetics. This legacy, which includes 8 Nobel Prize winners, continues to be strengthened today by the 50 faculty members who head cutting-edge laboratories in a broad range of fields, some of which are often and increasingly interdisciplinary. Their efforts and output are consistently, internationally recognized. Thomson Reuters鈥� Essential Science Indicators, a leading index for institutional performance, has ranked 麻豆传媒映画 in the top 1% of institutions most cited in published research and its faculty among the top three in terms of its influence in molecular biology and genetics.
