Quote: "Eric Smart, the former University of Kentucky researcher who resigned and was censured for scientific misconduct earlier this year, was disciplined for sexual harassment of his employees three years ago.

The sexual harassment allegations led to a year of probation for Smart in 2009, but he stayed on the payroll until 2012, when two internal investigations and one by federal authorities concluded that he had repeatedly fabricated scientific evidence."
