Psych Doctor Nemeroff Barred from Emory University Chairmanship after

Revelation of Secret Financial Ties to Big Pharma

(NaturalNews) A prominent psychiatric doctor who promoted

antidepressant drugs has been stripped of his chairmanship at Emory

University (again!) after investigators from Senator

Grassley's office uncovered secret financial ties to Big Pharma.

Dr. B. Nemeroff received $800,000 from GlaxoKline, but

failed to accurately report the income, say investigators from

Grassley's office. When Emory University learned of the lapse in

professional ethics, it stripped Nemeroff of his valuable

chairmanship and permanently barred him from his post.

Notably, he was not fired from his job, nor barred from practicing

psychiatric medicine, which just goes to show you that the practice

of doctors maintaining financial ties to drug companies is openly

tolerated by both state medical authorities and Emory University.

Dr. Nemeroff is barred from applying for grants from the National

Institutes of Health for two years.

Nemeroff's forays into undisclosed financial gain are nothing new: In

2006, he was caught in similar under-the-table financial gains

involving a medical device manufacturer named Cyberonics.

(http://www.naturalnews.com/020213.html)

In that scandal, the Wall Street Journal exposed his secret financial

ties. Nemeroff resigned the chairmanship he held in 2006 shortly

after the WSJ article surfaced.

You want to know what's really interesting about all this? Nemeroff

then apparently regained his chairmanship sometime between 2006 and

2008 because in this most recently scandal, he was fired from the

same position he resigned from in 2006!

So here's how the medical industry really works, folks: Doctors

secretly get paid all this drug money from pharmaceutical companies.

When they get caught, they never get fired. Instead, they simply

resign or are fired from a position that they get right back after

the bad publicity clears!

In other words, the resignations and job firings are just another

fabricated con job in the medical industry. And if you want to learn

even more about the real character of these doctors who push

antidepressant and psychiatric medications, check this out:

Nemeroff also served as the editor of the medical journal Depression

and Anxiety. The journal paid Nemeroff $3,000 to write a pro-pharma

article about Wyeth's antidepressant drug Effexor, but Nemeroff

turned around and double-billed Emory University another $3,000 for

the same article! (Double dipping, anyone?)

That's not all: According to the WSJ, 14 other Emory University

doctors also received money from the Depression and Anxiety journal

to write articles about Effector. The halls of Emory University must

be lined with dollars, huh?

Let me just state the obvious here, that in my own opinion, Emory

University is functioning a front for a gang of criminal

pharmaceutical racketeers who whore out their advocacy of drugs to

the highest Big Pharma bidder.

These are the leaders of modern medicine, folks! These are the ones

setting the agenda, writing articles in medical journals, defining

new diseases and getting quoted in the press! And it is only by the

slimmest of chances that they got caught at all. The medical industry

is utterly incapable of policing itself and, in fact, it welcomes

these people back into key institutions even after they've been

caught lying about the hundreds of thousands of dollars they secretly

received from drug companies!

Bottom line? You can't trust universities, you can't trust medical

journals, and you can't trust medical researchers or doctors. Any of

them could have secret financial ties to drug companies, and in

exchange for all that cash, they push dangerous drugs and fictitious

diseases onto YOU and your children.

Some scam, huh? Don't you find it amazing that Eliot Spitzer lost his

entire career for screwing some prostitutes while the top psychiatric

researchers keep their jobs even after screwing over their own

patients?

OK so this ties itself to what we are all saying.

Why are the others that are obviously speaking out of greed still employed by their institutions and why are these institutions NOT firing these individuals?

Possibly the institutions themselves are pocketing a million or so?

It seems to me that this is only the tip of a rather nasty iceberg,
