I assume, but do know know, that Sames received government (NIH/NSF) funding at Columbia? If so, it would seem there are parallels with the criminal investigation of former members of the UPSP cycling team who, allegedly, used PEDs while being paid by Uncle Sam.<br /><br />I would also hope that the affected students obtain financial compensation from both Sames personally and Columbia for loss of income/distress. <br /><br />Truly appalling.bbooooooyanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-78741052349067416562011-07-08T11:17:17.340-04:002011-07-08T11:17:17.340-04:00This story simply blows my mind.This story simply blows my mind.You're Pfizerednoreply@blogger.com
