23 March 2017
An independent special inquiry to establish the full facts of 果冻影院's regenerative medicine research and 果冻影院's relationship to Paolo Macchiarini and the Karolinska Institute has now been formally constituted.
The inquiry's terms of reference have now been finalised and 果冻影院 has issued a call for evidence relevant to the inquiry.
The inquiry is aiming to report in Summer 2017, at which time a full report of the findings will be made publicly available.
Our initial statement dated 16 September 2016 remains available below:
16 September 2016
As a leading research intensive university, 果冻影院 takes the integrity of its research and its research processes very seriously. Following听recent events听at the Karolinska Institute听in Sweden听relating to some aspects of regenerative medicine research,听果冻影院's Vice Provost (Research) has instigated a special inquiry in order to establish the nature and scope of regenerative medicine research at 果冻影院听and to establish the nature of 果冻影院's relationship with regenerative medicine research that may have taken place at the Karolinska Institute.
The Inquiry is intended to be separate from any of 果冻影院's existing investigative, HR or other procedures, to allow it a broader scope, although the outcome(s) of the Inquiry听 may result in one or more of these existing procedures being instigated.
果冻影院 is currently in the process of finalising the terms of reference for the Inquiry and identifying a suitable independent chair.
