As Trump’s Policies Worry Scientists, France and Others Put Out a Welcome Mat

As Trump’s Policies Worry Scientists, France and Others Put Out a Welcome Mat

Aix Marseille University in France has recently launched a program called Safe Place For Science, aimed at providing refuge for American researchers affected by the policies of the Trump administration. Just hours after the program was announced, the university received its first application, followed by a steady stream of about a dozen applications per day from scientists seeking asylum.

The move by Aix Marseille University is part of a broader trend in Europe, where universities are opening their doors to American researchers facing job cuts and program reductions in the United States. The goal is not just to offer individual jobs, but to uphold the principles of free scientific inquiry and fill the gaps left by the Trump administration’s cuts, particularly in areas like climate change, public health, environmental science, and gender studies.

Other universities in France, including cancer research foundations and institutions in Paris, have also stepped up to welcome American researchers affected by the changing landscape in the U.S. The push to attract these scientists is driven by a sense of indignation at the current situation in America and a desire to support academic freedom and research in critical areas.

In response to the cuts and changes in the U.S., European leaders like Philippe Baptiste, the French minister of higher education and research, have been vocal in their criticism, describing the decisions as “collective madness.” European countries are working together to coordinate a response, with efforts to set up emergency funds and programs to accommodate displaced researchers.

In Brussels, universities are offering postdoctoral positions to international researchers, focusing on areas like climate and artificial intelligence. In the Netherlands, plans are underway to attract leading scientists from around the world, while in Germany, there is a call to increase investment in science to capitalize on the opportunity presented by the changing landscape in the U.S.

The move to support American researchers seeking refuge in Europe is seen as a chance to reverse the brain drain that has long seen scientists flocking to the United States. By providing a welcoming environment and opportunities for research, European institutions hope to not only retain talent but also strengthen their own research centers and collaborations with the U.S.
