https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Jewish_Nobel_laureates

I find it interesting to see almost no Sepharad on this list. And that the list exists at all.

>Nobel Prizes have been awarded to 887 individuals, of whom 195 were people of Jewish descent, although people of Jewish descent comprise less than 0.2% of the world's population.

Guessing it's due to upraising among Ashkenazi and strong networks effects.
