A prominent researcher with the Montreal Heart Institute has been stripped
of his lab, privileges and status following an investigation into scientific
misconduct.
The institute launched an investigation earlier this year after two studies
by Dr. Zhiguo Wang were retracted from prominent scientific journals.
Those studies, conducted in 2007 and 2008, explored irregular heart rhythms.
The research was done at the cellular level and did not involve patients.
Dr. Zhiguo WangDr. Zhiguo Wang At the time, Wang blamed the error on a mix-
up of images used to illustrate the data. He said the research itself was
solid and had been reproduced.
On Friday, the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI) said its investigation found
Wang “deviated from MHI’s ethical standards of proper scientific conduct
and his responsibilities as a researcher.”
Dr. Jean-Claude Tardif, director of the MHI Research Centre, said the
hospital had concerns with how images used in the research were manipulated
-- and that it must enforce strict scientific standards.
Wang has been stripped of his privileges at the institute and his lab has
been closed.
MHI also requested retractions of three additional published articles, but
did not disclose any further details of its investigation.
Wang could not be reached for comment Friday.
The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) funded one of the studies
retracted earlier this year. The other was funded by the Canadian Diabetes
Association.
CIHR said it has frozen Wang's funding.
They're also considering additional measures, which could include barring
the researcher from applying for future grants.
Based on the MIH findings, the Canadian Diabetes Association said Wang is no
longer eligible for their grants. | G******O 发帖数: 189 | 2 科学界总算还保留了一点自净的能力。

至上!而不是真理至上。所谓的自净也只是以牺牲那些无足轻重或者本来就是不受待见
的弱势群体或个人做为遮羞布的自净。
