International - Misconduct Cases
Karolinska Institute Disclaims Articles
Volume 6, No. 1, December 1997
The Swedish research institute that awards Nobel prizes
in medicine and physiology announced that it cannot validate about
20 articles on gene amplification in breast and bladder cancer published
by Ulf Lonn, a former researcher at the institute. However, it did
not make a finding of misconduct, according to Nature. Lonn
denied the charge and considers himself legally cleared. His lawyer
said Lonn was not given a fair chance to defend himself and indicated
that the matter may end up in court.
