- freyir 6y agoYes, and then they too moved to the US to study or work. Look at any top US university’s STEM faculty? What percentage are native born? It is shockingly low.
- imgabe 6y agoI don’t think that’s inconsistent with the article’s narrative that the US succeeded by offering strong incentives and prioritizing research. If these brilliant people had the option to do this in their home country, they probably would. Moving to a completely different country is difficult.
