AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice is hereby given that
the Office of Research Integrity (ORI)
and the Assistant Secretary for Health
have taken final action in the following
case:
Zhong Bin Deng, Medical College of
Georgia: Based on the report of an
investigation conducted by the Medical
College of Georgia (MCG), the report of
the MCG Adjudication Subcommittee,
additional analysis conducted by ORI in
its oversight review, and the
Respondent’s written and oral
admissions and expressed remorse, ORI
found that Dr. Zhong Bin Deng, former
postdoctoral fellow at MCG in Augusta,
GA, engaged in scientific misconduct in
research supported by National Institute
of Allergy and Infectious Diseases
(NIAID), National Institutes of Health
(NIH), grant 2 P01 AI42288.
ORI found that Dr. Deng engaged in
scientific/research misconduct by
falsifying research results reported in a

paper published in Nature Medicine.1
Specifically:
• Figures 1 and 2 in the Nature
Medicine paper purportedly show that
the autoimmune regulator Arie controls
iNKT cell development and maturation.
In Figure 1(a), the Respondent falsified
the Aire +/+ (thymus and liver) flow
cytometry plots by substituting Aire +/
¥ (thymus and liver) flow cytometry
plots that were altered to disguise their
origins and falsified the Aire ¥/¥ (bone
marrow) flow cytometry plot by
substituting the Aire +/¥ (bone
marrow) flow cytometry plot, also
altered to disguise its origin.
• In supplementary Figure 2 of the
Nature Medicine paper, the Respondent
falsified flow cytometry plots as follows:
(1) in row 1, the Aire ¥/¥ (thymus)
flow cytometry plot [plot 2] and the Aire
+/+ ‰ ¥/¥ (thymus) flow cytometry
plot [plot 3] are duplicates, thus one of
the plots is falsified; (2) in row 2, the
Aire ¥/¥ (spleen) flow cytometry plot
[plot 2] and the Aire ¥/¥ ‰ +/+ flow
cytometry plot [plot 5] are duplicates,
thus one of the plots is falsified; (3) in
row 3, the Aire ¥/¥ (liver) flow
cytometry plot [plot 2] and the Aire +/
+ ‰ ¥/¥ (liver) flow cytometry plot
[plot 3] are duplicates, thus one of the
plots is falsified; and (4) in row 4, the
Aire ¥/¥ (thymus) flow cytometry plot
[plot 2] and the Aire +/+ ‰ +/+ flow
cytometry plot [plot 4] are duplicates,
thus one of the plots is falsified.
Dr. Deng has entered into a Voluntary
Settlement Agreement in which he has
voluntarily agreed, for a period of two
(2) years, beginning on October 2, 2009:
(1) That any institution that submits
an application for PHS support for a
research project on which the
Respondent’s participation is proposed
or that uses him in any capacity on
PHS-supported research or that submits
a report of PHS-funded research in
which he is involved must concurrently
submit a plan for supervision of his
duties to ORI; the supervisory plan must
be designed to ensure the integrity of his
research contribution; respondent
agreed that he will not participate in
any PHS-supported research until such
a supervisory plan is approved by ORI;
(2) That any institution employing
him submits, in conjunction with each
application for PHS funds, or report,
manuscript, or abstract involving PHS
funded research in which the
Respondent is involved, a certification
