Sun was removed from his position in 2022 after being investigated for his ties to China, a source told the Post on condition of anonymity.
Details of the investigations remain unclear, but MD Anderson was among the first institutions to dismiss China-born researchers after warnings from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), one of their major funders, about potential theft of US scientific research.
I don't know what's more sick:
treating medical science like it's stealth bomber blueprints
treating medical science like it's something to be owned and leveraged
- It's just so absolutely disgusting. Like oh no he shared life saving science that will be used to help cure cancer. How fucking terrible.
  
  If US medical scientists had already come up with a cure for cancer, do you think common people would get to know/use it, or would they just hoard it to keep ghouls alive?
- This is the contribution healthcare executives make to society
Sorry buddy, only Nazi scientists are allowed in this country. Take your commie ass back home.
- We only allow the people who align with white supremacy please no further.
potential theft of US scientific research
How could he possibly steal research. He's a researcher. He's creating the research. It doesn't exist without him.
Like ok expel him so he doesn't steal the research he's doing?? Instead hell do it in China and the research will exist there instead. I'm sure he'll be accused of stealing research while merely doing research in China.
Deranged county
- its in his brain and hes transporting the research across borders illegally. he was meant to be chained to a table here!
  
  Um have you considered that all your thoughts and labor actually belong to the billionaire who owns this medical research facility??? If you dare think without their approval that's theft so don't be a commie criminal.
is it still called "brain drain" if the scientists are being actively expelled
- brain deportation
  brain ejection
  brain rejection
  
  Brain ejaculation
  (
  don’t @ me, it’s a legit use of the word)
  
  brain gingerly spinning around so that cool vortex thing forms and sucks all the brains out
- red trepanation
Scientific research should be free and open for everyone. America is fucking evil.
unlimited Sputnik moments upon the western chauvinists
paranoid yellow peril chasing off highly educated people, utter clown moment. b-but he might steal our IP!!
