Parkinson’s Researcher Fabricated Data

"Neuroscientist Mona Thiruchelvam agrees to retract two studies linking neurodegeneration to pesticides.

"A former assistant professor at the University of Medicine and Dentistry, New Jersey (UMDNJ) committed research misconduct by fabricating data, according to an investigation by the university and the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Research Integrity (ORI)."

Papers finally retracted but not before half the woo world is convinced that pesticides cause Parkinson's - appalling.
