Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, and Brown.

In my opinion, all are excellent great universities with exemplary faculty resources and power on par with most of the top ten schools minus the great breath and depth of talk and media attention on this board and by average joe general public.

University of Wisconsin, great research powerhouse. Spend the second most in the nation annual on research and development after JHU for nearly 28 years in a row. You’d be hard pressed to find any postdoc or PI in any major research lab (including mine at Harvard) that has not heard of the research prowness of UWisconsin. I’m actually quited surprised at how underrated it is by many people on this board.
