Three state-funded Chinese institutes have posted job adverts this year targeting Chinese scientists in the UK in a bid to recruit high-tech talent.

The institutes, which advertised on the Chinese Embassy website, are looking for candidates for the National Natural Science Foundation’s (NSFC’s) Science Fund Programme for Distinguished Young Scholars (Overseas)—a recruitment and funding scheme similar to the so-called Thousand Talents Plan.
