A member asked:
Is there such a thing as brain drain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Geopolitical term: This relates to the acquisition of professional and highly skilled individuals migrating from the country in which they are trained, to another country offering better salaries or opportunities. This depletes the available "brain power" of the originating country - thus draining their brainy individuals.
