    The Office of Research Integrity (ORI) found Liping Zhang, Ph.D., a former professor at Baylor College of Medicine, guilty of research misconduct. The violations involved falsifying images in unpublished manuscripts and grant applications funded by government health agencies like the NIH. Zhang did not contest the findings, which led to a two-year ban from participating in certain federal transactions and advisory roles. This decision took effect in early 2025 to safeguard the integrity of federal research endeavors.

    Simple Explanation

    Liping Zhang, a former teacher, was found to have cheated by making up pictures in her science work. Because of this, she is not allowed to take part in certain government activities for two years to keep science fair and honest.

    The Office of Research Integrity (ORI) has found that Dr. Yibin Lin engaged in research misconduct while working as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Texas Health Science Center. Dr. Lin knowingly falsified and plagiarized data in several published papers and submitted manuscripts, which led to their retraction. He even created fictitious author names to disguise his actions. As a consequence, Dr. Lin agreed to a voluntary ten-year exclusion from participating in any federal government contracts and serving in any advisory capacities to the Public Health Service.

    Simple Explanation

    Dr. Yibin Lin, a scientist, did something very wrong by lying about his research work at a university, using fake names, and copying others' ideas. So, the people in charge decided that he can't work with the government in any projects for ten years.
