论文摘要

美国在科学技术领域的领导层从其他国家的移民中受益匪浅,最著名的是近几十年来来自中国。然而,自2018年在特朗普政府领导下的中国倡议以来,在美国的中国 - 奥林加林科学家们现在面临着更高的激励措施离开美国的激励措施,并较低的激励措施申请联邦赠款。分析与超过230万篇科学论文的机构关系有关的数据,我们发现中国裔科学家从美国回到中国的返回迁移稳定增加。我们还对美国大学任职或任期职务(n = 1300)雇用的中国 - 奥丁科学家进行了一项调查,结果表明了一般的恐惧和焦虑感,使他们考虑离开美国和/或停止申请联邦赠款。

The US leadership in science and technology has greatly benefitted from immigrants from other countries, most notably from China in the recent decades. However, feeling the pressure of potential federal investigation since the 2018 launch of the China Initiative under the Trump administration, Chinese-origin scientists in the US now face higher incentives to leave the US and lower incentives to apply for federal grants. Analyzing data pertaining to institutional affiliations of more than 2.3 million scientific papers, we find a steady increase in the return migration of Chinese-origin scientists from the US back to China. We also conducted a survey of Chinese-origin scientists employed by US universities in tenure or tenure-track positions (n=1300), with results revealing general feelings of fear and anxiety that lead them to consider leaving the US and/or stop applying for federal grants.
