Case: Data Falsification (page 6 of 6)

Narrator:
At the conclusion of the investigation Professor Milani demands a University statement exonerating him and Jim Liu, a letter of apology for the accusation, and removal of Professor Frankel from her administrative duties. Jennie Foster, learning that the suit against her was not dropped, sends the NIH office of the Inspector General her copies of the notes, suggests a cover-up and requests a full investigation. The IG requests the entire file for re-examination.

Questions:
  1. What lessons are there to be learned here?
  2. Was science served in this case?
