| Feb 8, 2022 at 20:15 | comment | added | ZeroTheHero | I doubt top tier US universities are deterred by the cost of an international flight, but I do suspect as you suggest that immigration issues (especially these days) might be a significant filter in both direction: never mind universities not being so keen to step into this web, not every European necessarily would want to work in the US academic system even if they could. | |
