This week's quiz: On 10 May, I asked you about a scientific summit held earlier that week here in Paris. It was about bringing to Europe US scientists whose research funds were being threatened – and now, many have been canceled - by US President Donald Trump. The summit, called “Choose Europe for Science”, was attended by EU commissioners, scientists, and ministers for research from member countries, and hosted by Paris's Sorbonne University. It closed with speeches by French President Emmanuel Macron and EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. You were to re-read our article “France hosts summit to lure scientists threatened by US budget cuts” and send in the answer to this question: Which specific research specialties are the Europeans hoping to attract? Amongst possible others, which specific sectors of research are the Europeans targeting? The answer is, to quote our article: “Macron's office said France and the EU are targeting researchers in a number of specific sectors, including health, climate, biodiversity, artificial intelligence and space.” The first “refugee scientists”, as they're being called, are on their way here. In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: “How do you greet friends and relatives? How do you greet people you are being introduced to for the first time? What do these forms of greeting mean to you?” The question was suggested by Jocelyne D'Errico from New Zealand. Do you have a bonus question idea?

Today on your Daily Detroit, a conversation about what happens when a state starts pushing back on one of its greatest challenges? After decades of decline, Michigan is seeing some positive population growth — particularly among young adults. My guest is Hillary Doe, Chief Growth Officer for the state of Michigan. Now, "Chief Growth Officer" might sound like pure bureaucratic jargon, but in this case, it represents a real shift. It's a story of targeted investments, a focus on community building, and an understanding that attracting people is about creating a place where people want to be. It's also a check in from a year ago, when we last talked to Hilary about the progress and the work to do. How do you reverse a brain drain? What does it take to make a state a place people choose? And can a state really change its narrative? There's still a lot of work to do, but it looks like Michigan and Detroit is starting to make some progress.

Migration policies shape not only the economies of countries but also their politics. In this episode, we dive deep into how letting people leave—or restricting their exit—can have surprising ripple effects on collective action and political reform in their home countries. Yale political scientist Emily Sellars reveals why migration might weaken the power of ordinary people to organize and push for change—and why even those who leave might ultimately lose out. Could closing borders paradoxically strengthen democracy abroad? We unpack a provocative new model that challenges our assumptions about emigration and its role in global politics.

In this insightful and highly practical conversation, Jeannette Linfoot welcomes back Chris Wilkins, an esteemed accountant and tax expert from Wilkins Southworth. Chris delves into his fascinating journey into the world of tax, from childhood inspiration to navigating complex international finance deals. The episode explores the significant "brain drain" of high-net-worth individuals from the UK due to recent tax policy changes, discussing the economic repercussions and the critical need for up-to-date tax advice. Chris provides invaluable guidance for various financial situations: from tax-efficient strategies for startup entrepreneurs (including VAT and partnership structures) to optimizing tax for multiple business owners. He unpacks the evolving landscape of property investing in the UK, detailing the impact of Section 24 and changes affecting furnished holiday lets. A crucial segment addresses the tax implications for unmarried couples versus married couples, particularly concerning capital gains and inheritance tax, and the often-overlooked necessity of updating wills upon marriage. Finally, Chris offers vital advice for those nearing retirement, highlighting recent pension and business inheritance tax changes that could dramatically affect legacy planning. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand and optimize their financial position in a constantly shifting tax environment. Top Takeaways Accountancy is a dynamic field, not just "men in grey suits." Staying current with tax legislation is crucial for effective advice. The UK is experiencing a "brain drain" of high-net-worth individuals. Changes to domicile rules are driving an exodus of taxpayers. Losing high earners impacts social services and the average person. The Laffer Curve illustrates optimal tax rates for revenue. Startup entrepreneurs can use VAT thresholds for competitive pricing. Partnerships can optimize income tax by splitting profits. Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) offer protection and tax benefits. Tax planning must align with legal entity structure. HMRC scrutinizes property incorporation schemes. Section 24 (Tenant Tax) significantly impacts buy-to-let landlords. Furnished Holiday Lettings tax rules have become less generous. Unmarried couples face distinct capital gains and inheritance tax challenges. Marriage invalidates previous wills in the UK. Pension inheritance tax rules have changed, impacting legacy planning. Proactive tax planning is essential to avoid detrimental surprises. "To know and not to do is to not know." "People who fail to plan, plan to fail." Sound Bites "Life started from a tax point of view when my mum... went to see her accountant." "The image of accountancy is that it's like men in grey suits and... it's quite boring but it's not at all." "You gotta keep on reading about tax and learning about it." "There seems to be a bit of an exodus from the UK right now." "If the 1% the top 1% go, who's gonna pay the tax?" "You just gotta kind of block out the noise and just keep your eyes focused on whatever it is that you want." "I'm going in there to collect as much as I possibly can." "It's a very YouTube idea, I love it." "Recovery is very important in our sport." "Come as you are, leave as more." "Your struggles are not your limitations." "Bravery is speaking truth to power." "Don't just climb the ladder, create an elevator." "Embracing failure is a powerful gift." "Your will wouldn't have said I leave X to my spouse, 'cause you weren't married before. But now you are." "To know and not to do is to not know." "People who fail to plan, plan to fail."

Ben and guest co-host Ali Velshi kick off the show with a conversation about how Trump's policies are accelerating US brain drain, Tulsi Gabbard's Fox News-style overhaul of the Presidential Daily Brief, and the eyebrow-raising new press secretary at the Pentagon. They also talk about Ukraine's massive surprise drone strike on Russia and the stalemate between Putin and Zelensky. Additionally, they cover the horrific attack on Jewish demonstrators in Colorado, Israel and America's disastrous aid distribution operation in Gaza, the expansion of settlements in the West Bank, and the future of the two-state solution. Also discussed: China's advantages in the trade war, how trade wars can become real wars, and far-right politics in Poland, Portugal, and the Netherlands. Finally, Ali takes a step back to talk about being a journalist covering Trump 2.0. Ali's show Velshi airs weekends on MSNBC, and his book is Small Acts of Courage: A Legacy of Endurance and the Fight for Democracy. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Europe is launching programs like “Choose Europe for Science” to try and bring American scientists across the Atlantic. With less scientists coming in, and more going out, is America experiencing a "brain drain"?
After nearly 100 days of traveling the country and visiting with farmers nationwide, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins released the first set of policy proposals under her newly launched Make Agriculture Great Again Initiative. Before the announcement, she sat down with farm broadcasters in Washington D.C., including Mid-West Farm Report, and responded to questions around tariffs and staff cuts. Secretary Rollins says she's confident that American farmers will reap the benefits of the administration's plan "quickly."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, we're airing an episode of NPR's daily economics podcast, The Indicator from Planet Money. It's about a group of people we know well: scientists. President Trump's federal cuts and scrutiny of academic institutions are forcing some U.S. scientists to head for the border. On today's show, an entomologist keeping America's farms safe from pests reconsiders America. And a CEO of a Canadian hospital explains how they are benefiting from the exodus.

Hundreds of U.S.-based scientists are applying to a French university program following major federal research funding cuts in the U.S. France's new initiative promises financial support and academic freedom, prompting what some are calling a potential “brain drain.” The panel discusses the implications for American innovation, global collaboration, and the growing politicization of science funding.News SourceNPR by Alana Wise, April 18, 2025https://www.npr.org/2025/04/18/nx-s1-5368132/us-researchers-scientists-apply-french-university-programThe Non-Prophets, Episode 24.18.2 featuring Cynthia McDonald, Stephen Harder and AJ FranceAttracts U.S. Scientists After Research Cuts

I always find it amusing when officialdom is confused, and they seem confused, as to why so many of our brightest minds have bailed and gone off overseas. This is the group of top achievers at NCEA level and the ones with international qualifications. More of them than ever have left the country. Officialdom here doesn't know if they are enrolled offshore or, and here is the critical point, why they left. Fortunately, I can help. Well, at least a bit. We had one leave the country to go off and study. We have a niece currently studying offshore and we also have a nephew who left, studied and graduated last year. They were, or are, all bright and all got top marks, and here is officialdom's answer: all wanted to get the hell out of here. Studying at an overseas university has become a “thing”. In one way it is no different to the vast swathes of other New Zealanders who set records exiting in the past few years. In simple terms, the brighter you are the more prospects you have. Part of your brain power and academic success will have led you to the realisation that there is a big world out there with a lot of opportunities and you want a slice of this action. Anecdotally, as regards higher study post-secondary school, I can tell you the amount of Māori indoctrination at high school these days is not just absurd, but counter productive. I know it isn't PC to say so and I know it's not scientifically fact-based. But I know what kids tell me and even in this current generation, which is far more willing and open to this type of bilingual Māori-based approach to learning, by the time you have had five years of it, you are done. What they failed to grip when they went hell for leather, and this applies to broader life in New Zealand ranging from Māori names of Government departments to news greetings on the TV at night, is if you over-egg it, you get push back, which is where we are right now. But I think there also must be some acceptance that as a small, insular country at the bottom of the world, when times are tough the world remains shiny and brains gets you access. I would have once said that most come home. But I look at our wider family and I'm not sure that's actually true anymore. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

US-Verteidigungsminister Pete Hegseth gerät durch einen neuen Chat-Leak unter massiven Druck – diesmal soll er sensible Militärinfos unter anderem mit Familienmitgliedern geteilt haben. Die Kritik kommt inzwischen auch aus den eigenen Reihen. In dieser Folge von "This is America" fragen wir: Wie unersetzlich ist Hegseth für Trump wirklich? Außerdem: Der Präsident legt sich mit dem Chef der US-Notenbank an – und bringt mit seiner Forschungspolitik Amerikas Top-Unis gegen sich auf. Harvard klagt – und ein Braindrain droht.

There was a time when Canada lost the best and the brightest in a "brain drain" to the United States. Is the reverse beginning to happen now?
Cantner, Uwe www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Studio 9
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Tech editor Sharon Wrobel and archaeology reporter Rossella Tercatin join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. The setting of a 17% tariff on Israel by the US appears to be paused for the moment, as Wrobel discusses. Israel thought it could receive a reduction on the tariff, the main worry is the indirect impact and talk of a recession in Israel's tiny market and the instability and uncertainty that could cause. There are ongoing negotiations with efforts to protect Israeli companies and concerns over exposure to machinations in global markets and the value of Israeli savings. Over 8,000 tech employees have left Israel in recent months and Israel was downgraded in the global ranking of top 50 wealthiest cities as millionaires and tech workers relocated, following first the judicial overhaul and then the ongoing war and hostage situation. Wrobel discusses the biggest concern in that shift, given the high-tech sector's payment of taxes, and its effect on the state and the Israeli economy. Tercatin discusses research at the Academy of the Hebrew Language, looking at how Hebrew accents developed across different communities and millennia, and the role of cultural heritage in preserving those language differences. She also talks about a Sicilian farmer who is part of a centuries-old ritual to harvest a sweet, white sap from the bark of ash trees, a syrup known as manna.
