I just realized that the answer would probably be close to 0% 250 years ago. Today, it has probably already surpassed 50%. This makes sense because the U.S. has the world's best universities, and many people come from all over the world for better opportunities. Even Albert Einstein fled Nazi Germany for Princeton, NJ. So most of the world's greatest living scientists were probably educated in America, but what percentage would you say?
