Cancer Growth: Knowledge Economy

Political Storm Dept: The cheery 26-year-old whiz kid from China was recruited two months ago on a big University of Toronto scholarship to join an international team of cell detectives here at Sunnybrook's research labs, according to The Star. Are these globetrotting scholars really the so-called designer immigrants many hail as fuel for our knowledge economy? Or are they poachers taking local funds better spent on local students and huddled over a microscope deep in Sunnybrook Hospital, PhD student Haoran Li is trying to discover how tiny acids called Micro RNAs may promote cancer growth while nursing his other new Canadian discovery, a Second Cup cappuccino. But he and other foreign students have found themselves at the eye of a political storm this week over Ontario's new $40,000 scholarships for foreign doctoral students. As reported in the news.
