Milena Penkowa could have no reasonable expectation of getting her doctorate degree after committing research fraud. Even if the fraud was not known at the time. This was established by a district court in Copenhagen last week. An appeal is likely.
The Academic Council of the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen (UCPH) has deprived neuroscientist Milena Penkowa of her doctorate in medicine. Penkowa writes on Facebook that she will fight to keep her degree and that she will take UCPH to court.
