Falsified cancer research at Ohio State

From the Columbus Dispatch:

“A prominent cancer treatment researcher at Ohio State University has resigned after an investigation showed he intentionally falsified data or acted recklessly in his review of data on more than a dozen occasions, affecting eight scientific journal articles.

Ching-Shih Chen, a professor in Ohio State’s College of Pharmacy, resigned in September after the university’s research misconduct review, the university announced Friday.

Approximately $5.9 million in grant money was tied to research related to Chen’s misconduct findings, said Ohio States spokesman Chris Davey.”

I wonder if OSU has to give the money back.
