Here's how Israeli research universities fared in the 2010 "Academic Rankings of World Universities" subject rankings.
Israel was one of only 8 countries to have universities that received top-20 "subject" rankings (US, which dominated, followed by the UK, France, Japan, Israel, Switzerland, Canada and Germany, in that order).
Subject Rankings:
