Full text
(a) After completing its review of the administrative record, ORI may:
(1) Close the case without a separate ORI finding of research misconduct;
(2) Make findings of research misconduct and propose and take HHS administrative actions based on the administrative record; or
(3) Seek to settle the case.
(b) The lack of an ORI finding of research misconduct does not overturn an institution's determination that the conduct constituted professional or research misconduct warranting remediation under the institution's policy.
