The FSRG IRB is currently investigating the research conducted in part by Michael Bamshad and others at Universities of Utah and Washington beginning in the 1980s and continuing into the present. There were documents in the records remitted to FSRG as part of the acquisition of the former FSPSG that aroused suspicion, and the IRB was consulted to provide advice. All documents related to research had to be surrendered to the IRB, and FSRG research personnel are being asked to surrender any additional personal communications with Michael Bamshad and others named in the research documents obtained from the former FSPSG. Pending conclusion of the FSRG IRB’s investigation, the FSRG Research Department and all other FSRG and related, connected, or affiliated assets and entities are prohibited from communication or other cooperation with Michael Bamshad and others named in the research documents obtained from the former FSPSG. FSRG has never formally or informally been affiliated or in cooperation with Michael Bamshad and others named in the research documents obtained from the former FSPSG.
