[JohnyMac]

China is suggesting that's their US hired scientists leave.

The work reveals that nearly 20,000 scientists of Chinese descent who began their careers in the US have left for other countries, including China, between 2010 and 2021, a team at Princeton, Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has found. ?The migration has increased during those 12 years, from 900 scientists in 2010 to 2621 in 2021, with an accelerated departure rate (75% higher) in the last three years ? coinciding with the launch of the China Initiative in 2018,? the authors wrote in the supplementary material. - Chemistry World.
