Former academic researcher who found that talc is not carcinogenic admits that J&J funded his work, but says that fact is immaterial
American health-care giant Johnson and Johnson (J&J) has allegedly been involved in funding shadow research into the health effects of talc, and the allegation appears to be substantiated by a former academic researcher involved in the work. The details first came out in a videotaped deposition of Joanne Waldstreicher, J&J’s chief medical officer, which was played in a Missouri courtroom on 11 June.
