Conflict of interest. 我们学校不可以,估计大多数学校都不可以,Federal funding 查得很严。 可行的办法是,你跟学校商量,用你的funding去雇另外一个人,一个学校本来就要雇 佣的人,学校再雇你老婆,你老婆的supervisor绝对不能是你(只就是 Conflict of interest)。但这其中牵涉到 expertise 匹配问题,总之很复杂。 当然如果你写proposal的时候你老婆就在里面,有名有姓,有 full disclaimer, funding agency 也understand,就另说。

You will need chairman or Dean approval to hire your immediate family member in most schools (at least state schools). My department has a technician who is the PI's spouse, she is hired via department chair though, so her husband is not a direct supervisor.
