知名生物学家徐显忠已返回中国，并加入深圳医学科学院担任资深研究员。此前，他曾任职的密歇根大学实验室有三名研究人员于去年因走私指控被捕。
徐显忠是美国科学促进会会士，现已加入该院生物架构与生物相互作用研究所。他此前曾在密歇根大学从事研究工作。
去年年底，他实验室的三名研究人员被捕。据美国司法部称，他们被指控合谋向美国走私生物材料。其中一名研究人员还被控向海关及边境保卫局官员作虚假陈述。
在11月的一份声明中，时任司法部长帕梅拉·邦迪（Pamela Bondi）表示，这些研究人员“显然是中国国民在密歇根大学掩护下所犯下的一系列长期且令人震惊的犯罪活动的一部分”。刑事诉状显示，其中两名研究人员曾多次收到从中国寄出的隐藏的线虫相关生物材料。
