UBC professor fabricated research study results, according to leaked report

Описание: A joint investigation by CBC News and the Investigation Journalism Foundation has uncovered a case of serious academic misconduct at the University of British Columbia, including allegations of falsifying results collected in a human trial. A professor in the department of plastic surgery at UBC claimed to have invented what could have been a miracle cure, but as Michelle Ghoussoub reports, when the university found the research to be compromised, the professor quietly retired. Those findings were kept hidden from the public until now. Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly identified Aziz Ghahary as a plastic surgeon. He is in fact a professor in the department of plastic surgery at UBC.
