Cheat sheet: MIT professor charged with hiding work for China
MIT professor Gang Chen did not disclose his connections to China as is required on federal grant applications, US authorities said. While working for MIT, Chen entered into undisclosed contracts and held appointments affiliated with the People’s Republic of China, including as an “overseas expert” for the Chinese government at the request of the PRC Consulate Office in New York, authorities said. He and his research group collected about $29m in foreign dollars, including millions from a Chinese government-funded public research university, while getting $19m in grants from US federal agencies for his work at MIT since 2013, authorities said. Harvard University professor Charles Lieber was charged last January with lying about his ties to China’s Thousand Talents Plan, a programme designed to lure people with knowledge of foreign technology and intellectual property to China.
