Title of the Collection: Medical 

Reserve Corps Unit Profile and Reports. 

Type of Collection: Revision. 

OMB No.: 0990–0302. 

Abstract: Medical Reserve Corps 

Units are currently located in 748 

communities across the United States 

and represent a resource of over 300,000 

volunteers. In order to continue to 

support MRC units, detailed 

information about the MRC units, 

including unit/user demographics, 

contact information, volunteer numbers 

and information about non-emergency 

and emergency unit activities is needed 

by the MRC Program. MRC Unit Leaders 

are asked to update this information on 

the MRC website at least quarterly and 

to participate in a technical assistance 

assessment using the Capability 

Assessment and Factors for Success at 

least annually. This collection informs 

resources and tools developed as part of 

national programing and helps to 

identify trends and target technical 

assistance to support MRC units’ 

preparedness to respond to disasters in 

their communities. The MRC unit data 

collection has been refined to eliminate 

duplication and streamline data 

collection tools.

Findings of Research Misconduct 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HHS. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Findings of research 

misconduct have been made against 

Shuo Chen, Ph.D. (Respondent), 

formerly a postdoctoral researcher, 

Department of Physics, University of 

California, Berkeley (UCB). Respondent 

engaged in research misconduct in 

research reported in a grant application 

submitted for U.S. Public Health Service 

(PHS) funds, specifically National 

Institute of Neurological Disorders and 

Stroke (NINDS), National Institutes of 

Health (NIH), grant application K99 

NS116562–01. The administrative 

actions, including supervision for a 

period of one (1) year, were 

implemented beginning on February 28, 

2022, and are detailed below. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

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

Director, Office of Research Integrity, 

1101 Wootton Parkway, Suite 240, 

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: 

Shuo Chen, Ph.D., University of 

California, Berkeley: Based on the report 

of an investigation conducted by UCB 

and additional analysis conducted by 

ORI in its oversight review, ORI found 

that Dr. Shuo Chen, formerly a 

postdoctoral researcher, Department of 

Physics, UCB, engaged in research 

misconduct in research reported in a 

grant application submitted for PHS 

funds, specifically NINDS, NIH, grant 

application K99 NS116562–01. 

ORI found that Respondent engaged 

in research misconduct by intentionally, 

knowingly, and/or recklessly falsifying 

data and methods by altering, reusing, 

and relabeling source two-photon 

microscopy and electrophysiological 

data to represent images of mouse 

hippocampal neurons in the following 

grant application: 

• K99 NS116562–01, ‘‘Investigation 

into network dynamics of hippocampal 

replay sequences by ultrafast voltage 

imaging,’’ submitted to NINDS, NIH, on 

June 25, 2019. 

ORI found that Respondent 

intentionally, knowingly, and/or 

recklessly falsified two-photon 

microscopy and in vivo 

electrophysiological activity images, 

figure legends, and text descriptions of 

hippocampal neurons from a mouse 

running on a treadmill in a head-fixed 

virtual reality (VR) set up. Specifically: 

• Respondent reused an image of 

visual cortex neurons to represent 

fluorescence calcium imaging of 

hippocampal neurons in Figure 6d and 

its associated text and figure legend of 

K99 NS116562–01. 

• Respondent reused in vivo 

electrophysiological data from control 

mice of spatial receptive fields for all 

recorded place cells during linear track 

exploration sessions from Supplemental 

Figure 1b from Nat Neurosci. 2018 

Jul;21(7):996–1003 (doi: 10.1038/ 

s41593–018–0163–8) to represent 

several sessions of two-photon 

hippocampal calcium imaging of 

progressive place fields, obtained from 

multiple mice running on a treadmill in 

a head-fixed VR set up, in Figure 6e and 

its associated text and figure legend of 

K99 NS116562–01. 

Respondent neither admits nor denies 

ORI’s findings of research misconduct. 

The parties entered into a Voluntary 

Settlement Agreement (Agreement) to 

conclude this matter without further 

expenditure of time, finances, or other 

resources. The settlement is not an 

admission of liability on the part of the 

Respondent. 

Respondent voluntarily agreed to the 

following: 

(1) Respondent will have his research 

supervised for a period of one (1) year 

beginning on February 28, 2022 (the 

‘‘Supervision Period’’). Prior to the 

submission of an application for PHS 

support for a research project on which 

Respondent’s participation is proposed 

and prior to Respondent’s participation 

in any capacity in PHS-supported 

research, Respondent will submit a plan 

for supervision of Respondent’s duties 

to ORI for approval. The supervision 

plan must be designed to ensure the 

integrity of Respondent’s research. 

Respondent will not participate in any 

PHS-supported research until such a 

supervision plan is approved by ORI. 

Respondent will comply with the 

agreed-upon supervision plan. 

(2) The requirements for Respondent’s 

supervision plan are as follows: 

i. A committee of 2–3 senior faculty 

members at the institution who are 

familiar with Respondent’s field of 

research, but not including 

Respondent’s supervisor or 

collaborators, will provide oversight and 

guidance during the Supervision Period. 

The committee will review primary data 

from Respondent’s laboratory on a 

quarterly basis and submit a report to 

ORI at six (6) month intervals setting 

forth the committee meeting dates and 

Respondent’s compliance with 

appropriate research standards and 

confirming the integrity of Respondent’s 

research. 

ii. The committee will conduct an 

advance review of each application for 

PHS funds, or report, manuscript, or 

abstract involving PHS-supported 

research in which Respondent is 

involved. The review will include a 

discussion with Respondent of the 

primary data represented in those 

documents and will include a 

certification to ORI that the data 

presented in the proposed application, 

report, manuscript, or abstract is 

supported by the research record. 

(3) During the Supervision Period, 

Respondent will ensure that any 

institution employing him submits, in 

conjunction with each application for 

PHS funds, or report, manuscript, or 

abstract involving PHS-supported 

research in which Respondent is 

involved, a certification to ORI that the 

data provided by Respondent are based 

on actual experiments or are otherwise 

legitimately derived and that the data, 

procedures, and methodology are 

accurately reported in the application, 

report, manuscript, or abstract.
