The danger, of course, is that it can be hard to entice scientists

who have been exposed to a well-funded and equipped laboratory to

return to (or remain in) their home countries. Researchers who have

worked elsewhere may not be eager to go back to a country without

an adequate system in place to allow them to continue a quality scientific

career. Mu-ming Poo of the University of California,

Berkeley, has been trying to address this problem head-on at his

Institute of Neuroscience (ION) in Shanghai, China, which is

approaching its fourth anniversary. With ten laboratories now and

three more to be added this year, as well as a good publication record

from the mostly returning Chinese investigators, the ION appears to

be doing well-which Poo, who was not initially optimistic, finds

encouraging. This year will also mark the ION’s first test of its

tenure review system, part of a merit-based career structure that

Poo feels is essential for encouraging and promoting quality science.
