口服避孕药之父、科学文学的身体力行者Carl Djerassi教授在2004年7月3日出版的Science杂志发表短文Asian Brains: U. S. v. Europe（利用亚洲的头脑：美国与欧洲的对比），文章说：
Science杂志2000年3月24日（287卷总5461期）发表了一篇研究果蝇（Drosophila）基因组的论文，它是34家实验室的186位科研人员共同完成的，186位作者中，有51位从姓名写法可判断出是亚洲国家的人，其中多数是中国人。同一期杂志上还发表了另一篇研究Drosophila基因组的论文，该文共有47位作者，从姓名看，清一色是欧洲人。

2010年3月31日搜索Google Scholar，第一篇文章已经被引用3333次，而第二篇文章被引次数只有23次。当然，第一篇属于综述评论文章，这类文章往往被引次数较高。但是，两篇文章被引次数相差如此之大，恐怕与文章作者队伍的开放性还是有关系的。
