COLLUSION: Harvard’s Chemistry Chair Charged on Alleged Undisclosed Ties to China: Charles Lieber allegedly lied to Defense Department, National Institutes of Health about Chinese government funding. “The chair of Harvard University’s chemistry department was arrested Tuesday on charges of allegedly lying to the U.S. about millions in Chinese funding he has received, in an escalation of U.S. efforts to counter what officials describe as Beijing’s aggressive recruitment at U.S. universities. In a separate case also unsealed Tuesday, a researcher at Boston University was also charged with failing to disclose her affiliation with China’s People’s Liberation Army while working at the university. . . . Prosecutors have brought a series of cases in recent months alleging that researchers at U.S. universities and labs didn’t disclose funding they were receiving from such programs, or tried to steal information to take to China.”

Tip of the iceberg, I suspect. And I wonder if this subject wouldn’t benefit from Congressional hearings?
