AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HHS. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Findings of research 

misconduct have been made on the part 

of Li Wang, Ph.D., Professor of 

Physiology and Neurobiology, 

University of Connecticut (UConn) 

(Respondent). Dr. Wang engaged in 

research misconduct in research 

included in National Institute of 

Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney 

Diseases (NIDDK), National Institutes of 

Health (NIH), grant applications 1 R01 

DK118645–01A1, 1 R01 DK116203–01, 

1 R01 DK114804–01, and 2 R01 

DK080440–09A1 and National Institute 

of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), 

NIH, grant applications 1 R01 

GM125140–01 and 1 R01 GM126685– 

01. The administrative actions, 

including supervision for a period of 

one (1) year, were implemented 

beginning on August 14, 2018, and are 

detailed below. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Wanda K. Jones, Dr.P.H., Interim 

Director, Office of Research Integrity, 

1101 Wootton Parkway, Suite 750, 

Rockville, MD 20852, (240) 453–8200. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that the Office of Research 

Integrity (ORI) has taken final action in 

the following case: 

Li Wang, Ph.D., University of 

Connecticut: Based on an assessment by 

UConn, an admission by Respondent 

and additional documents providing 

clarifying information, and analysis 

conducted by ORI in its oversight 

review, ORI found that Dr. Li Wang, 

Professor of Physiology and 

Neurobiology, UConn, engaged in 

research misconduct by recklessly 

including false data in NIDDK, NIH, 

grant applications 1 R01 DK118645– 

01A1, 1 R01 DK116203–01, 1 R01 

DK114804–01, and 2 R01 DK080440– 

09A1 and NIGMS, NIH, grant 

applications 1 R01 GM125140–01 and 1 

R01 GM126685–01. None of the 

applications received funding, and three 

were withdrawn before review (1 R01 

DK114804–01, 1 R01 DK116203–01, and 

1 R01 DK118645–01A1). 

In addition to making an admission, 

Respondent cooperated fully with 

UConn and ORI, has expressed remorse 

for her actions, and took full 

responsibility for her reckless behavior. 

Specifically, ORI finds that: 

• Respondent mislabeled figure 

images in four grant applications, as 

follows:

Figure 4D in 1 R01 GM125140–01, 

and Figure 4D in 1 R01 DK114804–01, 

mislabeled Western blot bands 

showing the effect of alcohol-induced 

liver injury in mice on HMGB2 gene 

reactivation

Figure 10A in 1 R01 GM125140–01, 

Figure 10A in 1 R01 DK114804–01, 

and Figure 11A in 1 R01 DK080440– 

09A1, labeled Western blot bands 

showing the knockdown of HMGB2 

protein using shHMGB2 in human 

stellate cells (LX2) as the effect on 

tumor initiating cells (TIC) 

—in Figure 13A in 1 R01 DK116203–01, 

Figure 13A in 1 R01 GM125140–01, 

Figure 13A in 1 R01 DK114804–01, 

and Figure 14A in 1 R01 DK080440– 

09A1, mislabeled confocal images 

showing the activation of a-SMA in 

primary HSCs as the activation of 

GFAP 

• in Figure 10 in 1 R01 DK118645–
