November 4, 2024

November 7, 2024 | 4-5:30 PM

On Thursday, November 7th at 4 pm ET, the Hoover Institute featured prominent scholars from AASF, including Drs. Yasheng Huang, Zhenan Bao & Peter F. Michelson. All three spoke in their personal capacity. They were joined by the Hoover Institution Program on the US, China, and the World.

From the program description:

“Both the United States and the People’s Republic of China see sustaining leadership in science and technology (S+T) as foundational to national and economic security. Policymakers on both sides of the Pacific have taken action to promote indigenous innovation, and to protect S+T ecosystems from misappropriation of research and malign technology transfer. In the US, some of these steps, including the China Initiative, have led to pain, mistrust, and a climate of fear, particularly for students and scholars of and from China. Newer efforts, including research security programs and policies, seek to learn from these mistakes. A distinguished panel of scientists and China scholars will discuss these dynamics and their implications. What are the issues facing US-China science and technology collaboration? What are the current challenges confronting Chinese American scientists? How should we foster scientific ecosystems that are inclusive, resilient to security challenges, and aligned with democratic values?”
