A researcher at Campus Gotland has been reported, suspected of having cheated in parts of his research, reports P4 Gotland.

This should include what is described as “nonsense references” and made-up data.

A report about what is called “suspected deviation from good research practice” was submitted last fall. Now the case is with a committee that hears cases involving plagiarism, forgery and fabrication.

The researcher is currently on leave from his assignments at Campus Gotland.
