I don't know how many Jews have won the Noble Prize, but the statistics are:
Jews are only 2% of the American population, but are 27% of the American Noble Prize winners.
Jews are less than 1/4% of the global population of the world, but are 18% of the all the winners of Noble Prize.

I don't know the exact number but there have been a great many. Jews value education and service to others. That's why so many become doctors, lawyers, scientists and teachers.
