Grad students are definitely in a precarious position in reference to their advisors and to ‘notable’ profs working in their area. Working abroad at the pre-PhD stage (especially somewhere where you don’t know the language) sounds like it compounds the issues. I think home institutions need to do a better job preparing and then protecting their students in this respect including creating avenues for reporting and legal protection.
