Summary
Harvard University has revoked the tenure of Francesca Gino, a professor at Harvard Business School, following years of allegations regarding data fraud, confirmed by a university spokesperson. Gino was placed on administrative leave in June 2023 after an internal investigation found her responsible for research misconduct, leading to a $25 million lawsuit against Harvard and the blog site Data Colada, which initially raised concerns about her studies. Although a federal judge dismissed some defamation claims, the lawsuit alleges breaches of contract related to her disciplinary actions, while Gino continues to assert her innocence against the fraud allegations.
