Bell Labs/Lucent Researcher Did Fabricate Data

The committee of independent scientists investigating charges of misconduct in the way certain Lucent experiments were performed or reported in scientific journals issued its report today. The committee asserts that "The evidence that manipulation and misrepresentation of data occurred is compelling." They conclude that Hendrik Schon, but not the co-authors on his many articles, falsified and fabricated data. (See Lucent press release and the full committee report.)
