The purpose of the research was to

determine from questionnaires the

lifestyle and personal history factors of

subjects and correlate them to infection

rates for STDs from use of laboratory

tests. Dr. Sarker admitted that she

falsified the coding of the questionnaire

data relating to the occupations of the

subjects and of their sexual partners to

present statistically significant data

regarding the risk factors for STDs.

Dr. Sarker has accepted the PHS

finding and has entered into a Voluntary

Exclusion Agreement with PHS in

which she has voluntarily agreed for a

period of three (3) years, beginning on

April 17, 2001:

(1) To exclude herself from serving in

any advisory capacity to PHS, including

but not limited to service on any PHS

advisory committee, board, and/or peer

review committee;

(2) That any institution that submits

an application for PHS support for a

research project on which Dr. Sarker’s

participation is proposed or that uses

Dr. Sarker in any capacity on PHS

supported research, or that submits a

report of PHS-funded research in which

Dr. Sarker is involved, must

concurrently submit a plan for

supervision of her duties to the funding

agency for approval. The supervisory

plan must be designed to ensure the

scientific integrity of Dr. Sarker’s

research contribution. The institution

must also submit a copy of the

supervisory plan to ORI.

Proposed Project

NIOSH Website for Kids and Teens—

NEW—The National Institute for

Occupational Safety and Health

(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control

and Prevention (CDC). The mission of

the National Institute for Occupational

Safety and Health is to promote safety

and health at work for all people

through research and prevention.

The goal of this project is to develop

a more effective means of

communicating NIOSH occupational

safety and health (OSH) information to

youth via the NIOSH Website for Kids

and Teens. NIOSH research indicates

that approximately 80% of youths are

employed at some point before they

leave high school. Research also

indicates that despite being prevented

by child labor laws from engaging in the

most dangerous occupations, teens have

a higher rate of injury per hour worked
