UW-Madison probes allegations of misconduct

A UW-Madison dean said Thursday the school is investigating former genetics professor Elizabeth Goodwin, who resigned in February, on allegations of research misconduct involving federal grant money.
Bill Mellon, associate dean for research policy, said he hoped the investigation would be finished before fall. Results would then have to be shared with the federal Office of Research Integrity, which would decide whether to pursue any legal charges, he said.
