Asle Sudbø
Asle Sudbø (born 3 May 1961) is a Professor of Physics at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). He was a co-author (with his twin brother, Jon Sudbø) of two articles in The Lancet and The New England Journal of Medicine[1] that were since found be based on scientific fraud and subsequently retracted in 2006. The editor of The Lancet described this as the biggest scientific fraud conducted by a single researcher ever.[2]. However, his brother claimed only he was responsible for the fraud.[3] An official inquiry into Asle Sudbø's involvement with his brother's fabrication took place, but he denied knowledge of the fabrication.[4]
