Darin BrownHuge fraud in HIV vaccine research
Posted by Henry Bauer on 2013/12/31
Millions of dollars in research funds were wasted for years on fraudulent vaccine research. One member of a research team got away with it for years without the team leader or other team members apparently being interested enough to look into the startling but fraudulent claims. See my post on the SciMed blog:

George C. O'Connor said
Fraud has been the rule for years since it has shown itself the most quickly profitable method in research. A very strong *esprit de corps* has developed over years and been the primary uniting force in what we naively call “research”. It pays fast and it pays well. It makes the “Mob” in its heyday look like schoolyard bullies.
