"An American researcher whose work reported on health benefits associated with red wine has been accused of scientific fraud involving 26 articles published in 11 journals.
The University of Connecticut's charge against one of its researchers, Dipak K. Das, comes after an investigation that began in January 2009, The New York Times reported.
A special review board was formed after the university received an anonymous allegation about research irregularities in Das's lab. The board produced a 60,000-page report that says Das's published research articles contained 145 instances of fabrication and falsification of data.
The review board's report has been sent to the federal Office of Research Integrity, which investigates fraud by researchers who receive government grants, The Times reported."
