(As of 2018), 88 EMBO Members and Associate Members have been awarded Nobel Prizes in either Physiology or Medicine, Chemistry or Physics.[1][2][3]Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag with candidates for membership being nominated and elected exclusively by existing EMBO members,[4][5] membership cannot be applied for directly.[6][7][8][9] Three types of membership exist:
