It's interesting that Harbin became so prominent given its general obscurity otherwise. If you are interested in the history of biology, Harbin during WWII was occupied by the Japanese and was the primary site of their "Unit 731" which focused on biological warfare. Did the Chinese take over their labs post war?
- thematrixturtle 5y agoIt seems to be mostly grim coincidence. All the researchers were Japanese, who destroyed everything including the buildings themselves before they left. Most returned to Japan and were granted immunity by the US in exchange for access to their research, a few served short jail terms in the USSR, but none remained behind in China.
