发帖数: 177 | 1 Former Pennsylvania State University electrical engineering professor Craig
Grimes, considered a world leader in materials science, has been charged
with misusing $3 million in federal research grants.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania accused
Grimes on Jan. 31 of misusing $1.2 million in grants from the National
Institutes of Health and of falsifying information when applying for a $1.9
million grant through the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act. If convicted
, Grimes could face up to 35 years in prison fines of up to $750,000.
Grimes had amassed considerable accomplishments during his career; he was
named 25th in a list of the world’s top 100 materials scientists by Science
Watch in 2011. Grimes’ received much attention for his lab’s 2009
discovery that titanium oxide nanotubes, when hit by sunlight, can turn
carbon dioxide into methane, a process that he said could be used as a
source of energy (Nano Lett., DOI: 10.1021/nl803258p).
The investigation of funding misuse dates as far back as 2010. The National
Science Foundation notified Penn State on June 18, 2010, that they were
investigating Grimes’ use of his NSF award, according to Annemarie Mountz,
the agency’s assistant director for public information
The U.S. Attorney’s Office says that Grimes applied for a $1.2 million
grant for his solely owned company, SentechBiomed, based in State College,
Penn. Grimes claimed he would use the grant to develop methods for measuring
blood gases in infants that would detect a common complication of
prematurity, necrotizing enterocolitis. However, the Attorney’s Office
claims that Grimes never performed the research.
Penn State fired Grimes on Dec. 31, 2010, and the university reimbursed NSF
for Grimes’ misused funds, Mountz tells C&EN.
That information was kept so quiet, however, that Grimes received a
lucrative offer from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas, during his
investigation at Penn State. Grimes was hired as Texas Tech’s Donovan
Maddox Distinguished Engineering Chair in Solar Energy and was scheduled to
start on Jan 1, 2011. Christopher Cook, director of communications and
marketing at Texas Tech, says Grimes accepted the position in the summer of
2010. But the university rescinded the offer in late August of the same year
. Although the U.S. Attorney’s Office release states that Grimes is a
resident of Raleigh, N.C., Grimes listed his affiliation as Nanjing
University of Technology, in China, in a 2012 journal article.
C&EN has yet to confirm whether the misconduct includes actual research
misconduct. The U.S. Attorney’s Office’s charges include misuse of funds,
but do not describe allegations of fabricated data.
The phone number listed for SentechBiomed was not working at C&EN’s press
time, and the company’s website is down.
News of Grimes’ troubles have caught some of his peers by surprise. Grimes
was an invited speaker at the Materials Research Society’s spring meeting
in San Francisco in April. Symposium organizer Xiaobo Chen, chemistry
professor at the University of Missouri, Kansas City, tells C&EN he had not
been made aware of the charges against Grimes. He adds that MRS is now
considering withdrawing the invitation for Grimes to speak.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office declined to comment further on the issue.

难道就是拿了钱不做事吗？
还是拿了钱开自己的公司？
而且美国government fund很难，转为personal use.
那么多钱，很难想象不做research, 怎么花掉的。

The hub, dubbed the Joint Center for Artificial Photosynthesis, will be
overseen by DOE’s Office of Science and jointly led by Call Tech and the
Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. In particular, JCAP will be lead by Nathan S
. Lewis, Cal Tech (director); Bruce Brunschwig, Cal Tech; Peidong Yang, LBNL
and UC Berkeley; and Harry Atwater, Cal Tech. Stanford University’s SLAC
National Accelerator Lab and the University of California’s institutions at
Berkeley, San Diego and Santa Barbara are also participating.
grimes的apr-e经费和这个hub是先后关系，不把他搞掉，hub无法开张阿，事实上doe也是这么做的。
相对于这些人，grimes牛个屁，这小子肯定得罪了大老了，因为他从大老那里把经费抢到了，搞得上层很被动，结果被人作为斗争的牺牲品。
还有看他们是这样说的：C&EN has yet to confirm whether the misconduct
includes actual research misconduct.
