Biden State Department Nominee Supports Chinese Propaganda Program
The National Institutes of Health has revealed that an investigation is underway of more than 500 U.S. federally funded scientists that are feared to be compromised by China and other foreign powers.
There have been many instances of China trying to steal intellectual property from the United States.
The federal health officials told a Senate committee that they are fighting to keep up with large-scale Chinese efforts to corrupt American researchers and steal intellectual property that scientists hope will lead to biomedical advances.
NIH has contacted more than 90 institutions about more than 200 scientists they’re concerned about, said Dr. Michael S. Lauer, NIH deputy director for extramural research. But the investigations’ workload is weighing down the nation’s top medical research agency, and new cases are turning up constantly across the government.
The Justice Department charged a math professor and university researcher, Mingqing Xiao, on Wednesday with wire fraud over allegations that he hid his Chinese government funding while obtaining funding from the National Science Foundation.
The Southern Illinois University-Carbondale professor, Mingqing Xiao, worked in the mathematics department since 2000 and obtained the Chinese funding starting in 2018, the Justice Department said.
From farming to cancer, China has been targeting U.S. research. The Times pointed out, “Last year, Dr. Lauer said, more than 90% of the scientists under investigation had received support from China.”
