This data visualization allows users to view SKLs housed at both enterprises and academic institutions, including those attached to Chinese Academy of Science (CAS; 中国科学院) institutes, and filter among them based on the subject area given to them by the Chinese government. From there, users can view information about selected SKLs, including whether the SKL is on a U.S. government export control or sanctions list, or associated with the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. Users with input on this visualization tool may contribute comments and feedback here.
