A Montreal hospital has dismissed a renowned cardiac researcher over allegations of scientific misconduct, a case that could throw medical studies based on his work into doubt.
The Montreal Heart Institute revoked Zhiguo Wang's research privileges Friday and shuttered his laboratory -- for good.
The hospital says it launched an investigation earlier this summer after Wang, who has received millions in federal grants since 1999, alerted the institution that he voluntarily retracted two of his articles from scientific journals.
