The ETH Zürich research director Peter Chen decided to step down by the end of September after being accused of data falsifications:
"The institute made the announcement in a press release issued 21 September, saying 'there are suspicions that scientific data may have been falsified in two publications and a doctoral thesis in 1999 and 2000' while Chen was group leader. A panel of five chemists was formed earlier this year to investigate, confirming data had been falsified."
Chen will remain a full professor at ETH.
