Fraud by scientist at New Jersey's UMDNJ

The Scientist reports on data fraud by a scientist, Mona Thiruchelvam, formerly at the University of Medicine and Dentistry, New Jersey (UMDNJ).

Articles in the journals Environmental Health Perspectives and Journal of Biological Chemistry were implicated. Both articles have been highly cited, with the paper in the Journal of Biological Chemistry study having been cited 73 times. Just because something is highly cited does not mean it is correct!

Name: Lawrence B. Ebert

I'm a patent lawyer located in central New Jersey. I have a J.D. from the University of Chicago and a Ph.D. from Stanford University, where I studied graphite intercalation compounds at the Center for Materials Research. I worked at Exxon Corporate Research in areas ranging from engine deposits through coal and petroleum to fullerenes. An article that I wrote in The Trademark Reporter, 1994, 84, 379-407 on color trademarks was cited by Supreme Court in Qualitex v. Jacobson, 514 US 159 (1995) and the methodology was adopted in the Capri case in N.D. Ill. An article that I wrote on DNA profiling was cited by the Colorado Supreme Court (Shreck case) and a Florida appellate court (Brim case). I was interviewed by NHK-TV about the Jan-Hendrik Schon affair. I am developing ipABC, an entity that combines rigorous IP analytics with study of business models, to optimize utilization of intellectual property. I can be reached at C8AsF5 at yahoo.com.
