The "DOE Funded Chinese Defense Research Tracker" is a specialized tool designed to monitor and provide transparency regarding research activities funded by the United States Department of Energy with Chinese defense institutions. This tool compiles and displays information on research projects, publications, and funders associated with US funding sources and their affiliations with Chinese institutions. By offering a comprehensive overview of such research endeavors, it serves as a valuable resource for analysts, policymakers, and researchers interested in understanding the dynamics of US-funded defense research collaborations in China, promoting accountability, and facilitating informed decision-making in the realm of international research partnerships and security studies.
The initial “All CN Connections” filter is focused on any DOE connection with a Chinese institution. This tool allows users to filter on Seven Sons of National Defence Universities S&T publications while connected with US DOE institutions. Additional funders are added in the dropdown to include mentions of talent programs.
