The case of an academic dismissed from her role for research fraud but then cleared by an employment court has once again raised questions over Swedish universities’ handling of misconduct allegations, just as the country tries to recover from one of science’s worst-ever scandals. Linnéa Taylor, a British-Swedish eye expert dismissed by Lund University in 2018 after being accused of misconduct by a Ph.D. student, is still fighting her case, and she is now taking the institution to the European Court of Human Rights. During the investigation into her work, Taylor was subjected to 18 months of death threats against her family and 2-year-old son from someone who appeared to have inside knowledge of her department. She was eventually forced to move into hiding.
