Image:Charles Lieber headshot.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

I notice the lack of information about his religious backgrounds. User_talk:Mongo>< Special:Contributions/Mongo> 18:23, 20 January 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.21.44.198 ( talk)
He is an ethnic Jew, and a chemist at that. I would vouch for either atheist or Jew but if there's nothing on religion he's probably an atheist. On top of that, he's had dubious connections to the Chinese PRC, an atheist state. -- 180app 18:25, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
besides that - the MAIN article has ton of typos and grammar mistakes
4 different sources called out the same thing. It is part of the rising tension with China, which draws parallels to McCarthyism.
Critics, however, argue that federal restrictions to these programs can lead to racial profiling, drawing parallels to McCarthyism.
Simon Marginson, a professor of education at Oxford University ... Marginson added that concerns about China’s conduct are “legitimate criticisms” but “reek of prejudice”. In an interview with the Stanford Daily, Larry Diamond, a political scientist and senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, insisted a balance can be reached. “I think [TTP participation] should be a matter of public record,” he said. “Beyond that, [professors] might do a lot of good things for China in bringing back medical and scientific knowledge, improving human welfare and raising standards of living.”
The Massachusetts US attorney Andrew Lelling called the charges “a small sample of China’s ongoing campaign to siphon off America’s technology and knowhow for its country’s gain”.
After chemist Dr. Lieber’s arrest, Steven Holtzman, former Biogen Executive Vice President, told The Boston Globe, “You don’t want to get yourself into a climate where people will be so afraid of interacting with [foreigners] that they’ll stop coming [to the U.S.]. That was McCarthyism.”
These recent developments in the clinical and research community are happening within the context of broader geopolitical strain between the world’s two most powerful nations, fueled by domestic demands that the U.S. “get tough on China” for past misbehavior – and likely influenced by a well-documented rise in expressions of nativism and xenophobia.
Irrespective of geopolitical tensions, the FBI’s particular assault on academia has drawn its own criticism. “I don’t even understand the term ‘academic espionage,’” Elliott says. “Espionage involves stealing secrets, something you’re trying to keep private or away from someone. But unlike in a company, where you have inventions and things that you patent and you want to protect and you don’t want anybody else to see, for academics the goal is to publish what you have learned. It’s to share.”

It seems odd to me that so much space (or really any space at all) is devoted to Lieber's growing of pumpkins. It certainly is not the reason why he is renowned and I do not see why it should be discussed. ABC23341 ( talk) 12:03, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
To add to this article: mention of the up to tens of thousands of U.S. dollars Lieber appears to have brought back to the U.S. from China in the form of "bags of cash" (this has been covered in most of the current articles about him, including the one in the Boston Globe). 173.88.246.138 ( talk) 01:16, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
