My latest @nature.com story shares the human stories behind the massive job loss and brain drain facing US science.

The quote I still can't get past: "We want to offer scientific asylum to our colleagues,” said Eric Berton, president of Aix-Marseille University in France.

" .. China and European countries are offering positions for scientists laid off, fired or pushed out by Trump and DOGE’s mass culling of federal workers and funding. The massive U.S. “brain drain” is a “brain gain” for other countries."

I wish I was a brilliant scientist and could move to 🇫🇷 France!

We are watching our nation and our entire culture being destroyed. I am beyond overwhelmed. Angry. Grieving.

Absolute boon for foreign science. More power to em. We seem dead set on wating the talent and making life miserable for scientists.

Thanks. You say “Research institutions in Europe and Canada are actively recruiting US scientists.” I’m seeing very very little of this happening in Canada. A few professors at Toronto are about it. What are you referring to?
