Harvard Psychiatrist Biederman Stops Industry-Funded Work Amid Probe
"Controversial Harvard psychiatrist Joseph Biederman has agreed to stop working on clinical trials funded by industry until Massachusetts General Hospital finishes looking into allegations that he didn’t adequately report the funding he has received from drugmakers.

Sen. Charles Grassley (R., Iowa) has accused Biederman of failing to disclose more than $1.6 million in payments he received from companies including Johnson & Johnson and Eli Lilly. Biederman is also taking fire over a research institute at the hospital that J&J, maker of antipsychotic Risperdal, allegedly helped fund to support sales of the drug."
