...fraudulent data. To verify the allegations, MBC requested samples of the stem cells, which Hwang provided. Pursuing their lead, the journalists tracked down two of three researchers from Hwang's lab who had gone to the University of Pittsburgh to work with his American collaborator and co-author, Dr. Gerald Schatten. They tried to strong-arm the Koreans into confirming the charges of data manipulation, and soon after, Schatten abruptly announced that he was terminating his partnership with Hwang, citing "information ... suggesting that misrepresentations might have occurred." A day before the MBC report aired in Seoul on Nov. 22, Sung...
...world's most exclusive club has only 43 members, and all of them are dead except Gerald Ford, 92; Jimmy Carter, 81; George H.W. Bush, 81; and Bill Clinton, 59. For years, the club rarely met at all, and then only at openings of presidential libraries or VIP funerals. But as Presidents have lived longer after leaving office, most have tried to stay busy, and some have felt underused by their successors. Harvard business and government professor Roger Porter, who has worked as an aide to three Commanders in Chief, explains, "Being President is like drinking from a fire hydrant...
...admitted to making "a lot of mistakes" and being "negligent in maintaining the stem cells." He also asked Science to withdraw his paper because of these lapses may have compromised his data. Editors at Science confirmed that they have received requests from both Hwang and a co-author, Dr. Gerald Schatten of the University of Pittsburgh, to withdraw the paper. The journal requires all 25 co-authors to agree to a retraction, and Hwang said the remaining requests were forthcoming...
...These latest allegation comes just 24 hours after a former Hwang collaborator, Dr. Gerald Schatten of the University of Pittsburgh, charged Hwang with fabricating his data. Back in June, the two men had co-authored a paper published in Science that detailed how individual stem cell lines were created for 11 patients through cloning. When Hwang?s ethics breaches were uncovered last month, Schatten was already publicly distancing himself from his onetime colleague. But on Tuesday, Schatten, took the next step and asked that his name be removed from the work. His reasons? ?Careful re-evaluations of published figures...
...institutional creep” also permeated the meeting, prompting demands that the University address its long-term plans. “I think I must have missed something somewhere,” Sanchez said. “I thought we were master planning.” Gerald Autler, project manager for the Boston Redevelopment Authority, said Harvard was tentatively set to submit an institutional master plan for the area in April 2006 after soliciting residents’ feedback. “There is no timeline here set in stone,” Autler added, “Our objective...
