While testifying, Healy explained that an "unrestricted educational grant, if I were to receive one, it would assume that I am saying things that are relatively favorable to the pharmaceutical company who has given me the educational grant."
"If I am saying things hostile to the drug," he said, "I will not get an unrestricted educational grant, although the word "unrestricted" suggests that I should."
Stowe's undisclosed income above was from Glaxo alone. In August 2007, he was listed as an author on a study titled, "Atypical Antipsychotic Administration During Late Pregnancy," in the American Journal of Psychiatry.
According to the disclosure section, Stowe has received research support from Glaxo, Pfizer, and Wyeth, has served on advisory boards for Glaxo, Wyeth, and Bristol-Myers Squibb, and has served on speaker's bureaus and/or received honoraria from Glaxo, Lilly, Pfizer, and Wyeth.
The second author on the ghostwritten paper, Jeffrey Newport, is the associate director of Emory's Women's Program. Newport was also an author on the "Atypical Antipsychotic" study. He has received research support from Glaxo, Lilly, Janssen, the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression, NIH, and Wyeth, and, he has served on speaker's bureaus for Glaxo, AstraZeneca, Lilly, Pfizer, and Wyeth, according to the disclosures.
The next person the jury heard about was Charles Nemeroff. He was also an author on the atypical study. Nemeroff was the Chief of Psychiatry at Emory, until he lost the position last year, Healy told the jury. "He's possibly best known or was the best known psychiatrist in the United States."
"He influenced an awful lot of heads of departments, professors of psychiatry, general people within the field of academic mental health, and through them and an awful lot of prescribing doctors here in the U.S. And, indeed, perhaps worldwide," Healy testified.
A link to "Articles" on the Emory website in mid-2009, brought up roughly 90 studies and papers that include the co-author Nemeroff.
Healy said he believed Nemeroff was one of the founding members of the Paxil advisory board and he participated in continuing medical education seminars with talks on Paxil.
