2010-2020: a decade of Field's medalists:
Elon Lindenstrauss Israel
Ngô Bảo Châu Vietnam
Stanislav Smirnov Russia
Cédric Villani France
Manjul Bhargava. United States
Maryam Mirzakhani Iran
Martin Hairer Austria
Akshay Venkatesh Australia
Notably, without exception, all of them were associated with IAS at some point.
Seems biggest consideration here for DurhamU would be to consider making their own very successful IAS and curate that institute membership to whatever criteria and see how it competes globally. Looking forward to their contribution to Ma.
more on DurhamU: I cannot even locate their Math ranking, but with #701 ranking in Engineering, and #310 in Physics, seems they've got plenty of work ahead of them to even come close to the IAS. (usnews rankings)

an irrelevant un-ranked institution making noise?
