In his News Feature “Pall of suspicion” (24 March, p. 1180), J. Mervis describes 5 of the 246 cases in which the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) suspected that scientists were violating grant funding policies. Mervis insinuates that the cases were mishandled and unjustified, but the data he cites show that NIH had well-founded concerns.

In March, Science published a news story by Jeffrey Mervis that chronicled five cases of individuals, mostly Chinese or of Chinese descent, whose research careers were disrupted or ended by personnel actions taken by the US National Institutes of Health (NIH). As I wrote in an accompanying editorial, these moves have eroded trust in the NIH and chilled important collaborations with China.
