Help Wanted. Looking for American researchers.<\/p>\n

As President Trump cuts billions of federal dollars from science institutes and universities, restricts what can be studied and pushes out immigrants, rival nations are hoping to pick up talent that has been cast aside or become disenchanted.<\/p>\n

For decades, trying to compete with American institutions and companies has been difficult. The United States was a magnet for top researchers, scientists and academics. In general, budgets were bigger, pay was bigger, labs and equipment were bigger. So were ambitions.<\/p>\n

In 2024, the United States spent nearly $1 trillion \u2014 roughly 3.5 percent of total economic output \u2014 on research and development. When it came to the kind of long-term basic research<\/a> that underpins American technological and scientific advancements, the government accounted for about 40 percent<\/a> of the spending.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
