[Yale] School of Medicine professor Kimberly Yonkers [denied having ghostwritten an article about the anti-depressant drug Paxil. She] claimed she edited the writing company’s draft substantially.
******************************
From an earlier Yale Daily News article:
The [litigation-related] documents related to Yonkers’ study include the cover page of the first draft the medical publishing company Scientific Therapeutics Information produced showing favorable results of the drug, [investigator Paul] Thacker said. The draft’s cover lists the Scientific Therapeutics Information writers who prepared the document as well as Yonkers, but the published study does not credit the Scientific Therapeutics Information writers who drafted the report for their contribution, nor does it refer to their company.

There can’t possibly be someone named Kimberly Yonkers. I would remind the Yale School of Medicine that “Nathan Detroit” was a fictional character.
