Stanford president resigns over manipulated research, will retract at least three papers
Marc Tessier-Lavigne failed to address manipulated papers, fostered unhealthy lab dynamic, Stanford report says
https://stanforddaily.com/2023/07/19/stanford-president-resigns-over-manipulated-research-will-retract-at-least-3-papers/

investigation found “manipulation of research data.”

"The report concluded that the fudging of results under Tessier-Lavigne’s purview “spanned labs at three separate institutions.” 
It identified a culture where Tessier-Lavigne “tended to reward the ‘winners’ (that is, postdocs who could generate favorable results) and 
marginalize or diminish the ‘losers’ (that is, postdocs who were unable or struggled to generate such data).”

"For several papers worthy of retraction to have been principally authored by the same scientist represents “unusual frequency of 
manipulation of research data and/or substandard scientific practices,” "    (pattern of racketteering)

""In the report, the scientific panel raised questions about allegations of fraud in a major 2009 Alzheimer’s study that claimed to 
have found the cause of neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s patients and was publicly called “the most important discovery in Alzheimer’s in
 the last 20 years, maybe ever” by former Genentech executive Richard Scheller.""   (follow the money)

"...contain doctored imagery..."

The Starmaker -- To question the unquestionable, ask the unaskable,
 to think the unthinkable, mention the unmentionable, say the unsayable, and challenge
 the unchallengeable.
