This isn't actually "new" news but Medscape put out a story on it. However, because accessing Medscape articles may require one to register, here's an article on the situation that available on the Huffinston Post website:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/05/11/alzheimers-research-fraud-harvard-marilyn-albert_n_1508026.html One sentence from the article that sums up the problem is: |The data showed results from a trial were scientifically significant |when in fact they were not, according to the lawsuit. So, big schools (e.g., Harvard), big researchers, and big money is involved ($15 million grant application). And then there is the whistleblower, a statistician named Jones who brought the suit against his "bosees". It wouldn't surprise me if they made a movie out of it, depending upon how the trial turns out. -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
