US House panel details probes of Chinese-American scientists over China ties

A US House Select Committee on China released hundreds of pages of documents detailing investigations into dozens of researchers, many Chinese-American, over alleged links to China, alongside a report urging stricter oversight of federally funded research. The release escalates congressional scrutiny of academia, countering university arguments that such measures are overbroad. This signals a hardening US political stance on research security, potentially affecting bilateral scientific collaboration and Chinese-American researchers.
