More Than 200 Scientists Rejected for Work in U.K. From Tuesday, July 19, 2005 issue.

More Than 200 Scientists Rejected for Work in U.K.


Fears of terrorism led the United Kingdom in recent years to reject applications from more than 200 foreign scientists looking to do research at British universities in chemistry, microbiology, biotechnology and other fields, the London Guardian reported today (see GSN, July 6).

Documents from 2001 to May 2005 show that British security services recommended that 238 of 2,282 scientists applying to study in the United Kingdom be rejected due to security concerns (Guardian, July 19).
