No conflict of interest in misconduct case, says lab.

The article reports that officials of the Office of Science at the U.S. Department of Energy are dissenting a finding of an investigation that the alleged scientific misbehavior at a national laboratory qualifies for public release. David Williams stresses that the investigators allotted time reviewing the papers received from Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee but failed to charge the management with misconduct despite the presence of errors. Lawyers of Oak Ridge claim that there was no conflict of interest in the case.
