> Most of the scientists I know pretty much ignore research out of China ... Ranking by the 1% most highly cited papers in math and computing for those published between 2013-2016: 6 of the top 15 universities are in mainland China, 6 USA, 2 Singapore, and 1 Hong Kong. Tsinghua is at number 1. Singapore also seems to employ a number of researchers from China.
