The University of Louisville plans to resume a highly scrutinized research study that was previously halted amid data collection and oversight problems.
A University of Louisville neurosurgery professor has filed a lawsuit against the school and its top spinal cord researchers, claiming they fired him in retaliation for reporting patient care and safety issues to the federal government.
The University of Louisville’s response to our recent story, “Top U of L Researcher Loses Federal Funding For Paralysis Study,” makes spurious claims about our reporting.
In March, a federal agency took the unusual and drastic move of withdrawing funding from a U of L research study, citing concerns about the validity of the data and unresolved problems with oversight.
