The chair of Harvard’s chemistry and chemical biology department was arrested this week after prosecutors alleged he made a false statement to the federal government about a financial relationship with the Chinese government, according to this New York Times story. He was one of three scientists accused of foreign-influence-research-crimes this week, according to the story. “Charging documents in the case describe Dr. Lieber’s growing commitments in China and efforts to hide them from his employers in the United States,” according to the story.
