"It's worth noting that the British-born Szostak and the Australian-born Blackburn are immigrants who chose to work at U.S. research institutions, which continue to be the world's best."

Wonder who funds the research institutions?

Mostly American consumers because many countries restrict the ability of drug companies to recoup the cost of research from sales in that country.
