The leader of said institute only got its license for research on humans
temporarily scrapped pending further investigation. What shocked me most
was that the professor who was the cause of all this isn't even
suspended but managed to sell his shares for the company that would
eventually market the by him researched cure for several millions. He
still does research in the same field as the leader of his research
team. I was totally flabbergasted.
