  That's already well-known news. The above seems to imply research fraud, possibly tied to grants, which is now "overrunning the Institute" and I'd like to know more.

    I personally know the open agriculture stuff was a joke, I got wrapped up in it and actually had several conversations and email exchanges with Caleb Harper (not in any shady or illegal way, I just sold kits of their open source food computer after seeing Caleb's TED talk, until I found out they didn't work, and never did, and don't provide any real benefit over something like an Aerogarden) https://www.wired.com/story/dirty-money-and-bad-science-at-m https://www.wired.com/story/dirty-money-and-bad-science-at-m...

  This shouldn't be a downvote. Step 1: Download the MIT Epstein transparency report. http://factfindingjan2020.mit.edu/ http://factfindingjan2020.mit.edu/ Step 2: Go to archive.org, and pull up Epstein foundation web site photos. See MIT faculty on sex island. Step 3: Try to find those names in the transparency report. Many more MIT faculty flew to sex island. No press did due diligence here. Literally the only people who got thrown under the bus were the honest ones who came forward, and ones who were dead. MIT delayed until the story was no longer hot, and released a boring 60+ page report, so the press apparently didn't even bother reading it.
