Three Chinese researchers working in the United States have been charged with commercial bribery, announced the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the US Attorney's Office in Manhattan last week. Officials say that radiology professor Yudong Zhu recruited Xing Yang and Ye Li to help him develop magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology at New York University's Langone Medical Center. While funded by a multimillion-dollar grant from the US National Institutes of Health, the three allegedly took payments from a rival medical-imaging company and a research institute in China in exchange for confidential information about their research.
