The University of Chicago is a private research university in Chicago, Illinois, founded in 1890. Its scientists include Robert Millikan and Enrico Fermi, whose team achieved the first self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction in Chicago Pile-1 beneath the campus stadium in 1942. The university combines teaching with research across the physical sciences, the life sciences and medicine, and the atlas links scientists to it where their cited articles say they studied, taught or carried out research there.
