US crackdown harming China collaborations
Scientists in China say they’re reluctant to travel to the United States when pandemic restrictions lift, and some are even reducing their e-mail and phone communication with US researchers. They fear being caught up in the US government crackdown on foreign interference in science. Dozens of researchers — many with ties to China — have been fired or have resigned amid allegations that they breached government-agency rules or those of their institutions, mostly to do with disclosing foreign ties or conflicts of interest. Researchers in both countries say this fear — as well US policies to restrict visas to some students and scholars from China — is impacting collaborations.
