Naheed Mangi, a former researcher at Stanford, was convicted of tampering with a breast cancer research database after being fired for performance issues. In an act of revenge, she accessed her old account to falsify records with insults about her former supervisor, leading to significant financial losses for the university. Her actions, occurring after her termination but before her access was revoked, revealed a troubling intersection between personal grievances and academic integrity. Mangi now faces a maximum sentence of 21 years in prison for her misconduct, which undermined vital research efforts.
"Naheed Mangi intentionally tampered with a breast cancer research database by entering false information and personal insults. Her senseless actions undermined a study into the safety and efficacy of a new treatment for breast cancer patients."
"She caused thousands of dollars in financial loss to the University, and now she is facing a maximum of 21 years in prison due to her actions."
