"There were problems with the documentation of the details," he said. "The conclusions were valid."
Bauer and Arbini performed the experiments again in 1996 and received the same results. "The original results were validated," he said.
According to the complaint, Bodkin gave a letter to Bauer on Nov. 13, alerting him to the alleged inaccuracies, which, the complaint states, he said he would look into before publishing the article.
"In late November 1995, Dr. Bodkin learned that her co-worker's research manuscript had been submitted for publication without the necessary changes to make it conform to accepted principles of scientific research," the complaint reads.
Bauer denied that the published paper advanced any inaccurate conclusions.
"These have been published," he said in an interview Friday. "The published data stand...the science is valid."
On Dec. 8, 1995 Bodkin filed a formal charge of misconduct with HMS.
