Belgium’s Ghent University has suspended Nathan Cofnas, the controversial scholar whose blog accusing Jason Arday of plagiarism led to widespread public scrutiny of the late University of Cambridge professor’s academic record and personal achievements.
Ghent said in a statement that it has launched “a preliminary disciplinary investigation” into Cofnas, a postdoctoral researcher in its Department of Philosophy and Moral Sciences.
