Johns Hopkins

Maryland research institution

Johns Hopkins refers to the university and affiliated institutions in Baltimore, Maryland—particularly the medical school and hospital system, which rank among the most prestigious in the world.

The name comes from the 19th-century philanthropist who endowed them: She's doing her residency at Johns Hopkins.

The plural Johns is correct, not a typo for John.
