Top researchers leave USA for the Netherlands (in Dutch)

The new Tulp Fonds is successfully attracting 34 top international researchers, with 29 coming from the USA, to work in the Netherlands. This initiative, backed by 50 million euros, addresses global pressures on academic freedom while boosting Dutch innovation in critical fields like AI, quantum computing, and health. By welcoming talent from institutions like Harvard and Stanford, the Netherlands strengthens its scientific independence and future resilience.

"Every additional top researcher means access to new knowledge, networks, and new perspectives for current researchers in our country."
