Academia Sinica's current President is Dr. Chi-Huey Wong, a biochemist, who replaced Dr. Yuan Tseh Lee, a physical chemist and Nobel laureate in Chemistry, as the 9th president on October 19, 2006.

But Academia Sinica's problems in recruiting foreign talent lie more with the institute's own administrators than with a gridlocked Legislature, said Wu Maw-kun, director of the Institute of Physics at Academia Sinica.
He added that many Academia Sinica programs are conducted jointly with local universities, and that degrees were granted to students only under the auspices of these universities.
Academia Sinica Vice President Ovid Tzeng, however, denied that institute administrators were unsupportive of efforts to give Academia Sinica a greater say in who they could accept from overseas.
