We recently received a response from the Chair UZH Faculty of Arts and Sciences Ethics Commission which:
Informed us that the University of Zurich takes these issues very seriously. Clarified that the commission does not have legal authority to compel non-publication of research.
I don't think they can prevent publication, at least they are saying they can't
We're all agreeing he's an idiot from many different angles
Ah I did not know the difference, you are correct

Edit I fixed the title thank you
I'll follow the rules the best I can.
Ooof the response from the ethics commission is very neutered.
Maybe they can't comment on discipline matters outside of what they said, it's really surprising if they stopped at a warning about this.
This isn't that.
The card I found was made during an era where civil rights had a massive leap forward. These kind of stories were not about people being better, they were about people deserving an opportunity to participate.
Ok we won't talk about anything that doesn't change votes three years from now.
I guess we won't talk about anything.
I made a video about how I learned about the guy. I thought the card record was neat.
It doesn't. This surgeon was motivated enough to help people that he opened his own practice to do it, and that motivation helped people.
It doesn't matter, the hypocrisy matters.
It's not morbius
Ok, you can go and talk about whatever you want. I'll do the same.
