Information & Ethics committee  I was always very impressed by her, and I saw no evidence of foreign interference in any of the work that we did.

Information & Ethics committee  I chose to resign from the board due to the fact that we were losing our management and, as Ms. Gibson said, there was the value or the need of having an independent portion of the board handle it with an independent investigator to be able to assess the past facts and to figure out a path forward for the organization so that we could deal with this donation and then get back to the important work of the foundation, which was to support the Ph.D. students.

Information & Ethics committee  I don't know. It was before my time.

Information & Ethics committee  I don't believe I could determine who the real donor was from the information provided. That was on the basis that the foundation was having trouble returning the donation.
