Andrew Gelman Professor at Columbia University on the Scandal at Harvard

June 26, 2023

Andrew Gelman is a professor of Statistics and Political Science at Columbia University. He joins us (from France) to discuss the remarkable scandal at Harvard Business School where a famous behavioral scientist, Francesca Gino, who publishes frequently on the subject of dishonesty and who wrote a book about breaking rules was found to have fabricated the data underlying multiple studies going back at least a decade.
