How does high-skilled emigration affect countries of origin?

Thrilled to see our review paper on brain drain vs. brain gain out in @science.org! Very grateful for this opportunity to work with brilliant coauthors. Importantly, we point out open questions which hopefully would spur new research on effects of high-skilled emigration on source countries.

International students will stop coming to American universities if their visas are going to be at risk. This will make our intellectual community poorer and also make tuition more expensive for domestic students.
