This seems to be an instance of "intellectual property theft", which makes me wonder, isn't the research from these universities published on academic journals anyway? Are they being accused to be "stealing" from the journals or what?
- scohesc 7y agoI would assume that some of the data being stolen is from current, on-going, potentially high confidentiality research projects - otherwise this wouldn't be making headlines. The article is also saying that as part of doing medical research at the NIH, you cannot accept financial contributions from the "Thousand Talents" program in China. It seems like the article is more about researchers breaking important conflict-of-interest policies and it just happens that those researchers are mostly chinese and the stolen data is being exported to China.
