[GMU spokesperson] Walsch clarified on Sunday that Bradley’s complaint [against GMU Statistician Edward Wegman] is under a formal investigation by the university, and has moved past a preliminary “inquiry” to a committee investigation.
“An investigation is warranted if there is a reasonable basis for concluding that the alleged conduct falls within the definition of research misconduct under this policy and preliminary information-gathering and preliminary fact-finding from the inquiry indicates that the allegation may have substance,” according to the university’s misconduct policy.
Also, Eli Rabbet has more news on the possible legal action being undertaken by Academic Press, the publisher of Bradley's Reconstructing Climates of the Quaternary, from which Wegman is said to have plagiarized material.
