Some 26 researchers at the Chineese Academy of Sciences, several universities and research institutes signed a letter to policy makers at the science and technology ministry and the National Natural Science Foundation of China.

The new strategy of hiring young scientists has been adopted lately by some institutes and university departments in China as senior investigators are planning to retire in the nearest future. The rapid expansion of research, the lack of established middle-aged scientiests from the generations whose talent was squandered during the Cultural Revolution in 1966, and the trend among the young scientists to move overseas have triggered this process.
