We are very grateful for the ERC Consolidator Grant awarded to my research group! Through our interest in TPD, we have developed expertise in proximity induction which we now leverage to directly rewire transcriptional circuits dysregulated or mutated in cancer.

Bouke de Vries is the supervisor who used his ERC grant to shimmy Nathan Cofnas into a postdoc position for which he did not actually qualify. There's a lot we already know about de Vries. 1/
His recruitment was decidedly dodgy/corrupt. I think the next for suspension/investigation is Bouke de Vries who has many questions to answer.

Damning report from Ghent University on the appointment of Cofnas and his background.
He and the professor who appointed him seem like absolute charlatans.
