<p>“The Scientist Magazine” each year rates research institutes and universities on their desirability as places for researchers in the life sciences to work. For the second year in a row, Princeton has ranked at the top of their U.S. list. The ranking is based on a number of factors including the quality of the scientists’ peers at that institution, the frequency with which papers published by the university’s faculty are cited by other scientists, tenure/promotion, pay and job satisfaction.</p>
