Charles Nemeroff's $1.9 million dollar pharma mansion


Psychiatrist spends $1.91M on Miami 6BD,Block Shopper, Florida:

Charles Nemeroff, investigated by Senator Charles Grassley for non disclosure of pharma income, causing Emory University grief with regard to the NIH grant money, association with GSK, has purchased a $1.91 million dollar home, in Florida.

"Dr. Charles B. Nemeroff and Gayle Nemeroff bought a six-bedroom, seven-bath home at 1780 Espanola Dr. in Miami from David and Carolyn Shulevitz for $1.91 million on Dec. 4.

The Shulevitzes bought the property for $2 million in Sept. 2008. The 5,204-square-foot house was built in 2007 in the North/East Coconut Grove neighborhood."

via PHARMALOT:

"Grassley’s probe prompted Emory to suspend Nemeroff’s work on an NIH grant and asked him to step down as chair of psychiatry while it studied his conduct (look here). And the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General began an inquiry into Emory’s handling of the matter (see this). Meanwhile, Pascal Goldschmidt, the Miller school dean, recently told The Miami Herald that he read reports from Emory about Nemeroff’s activities and found nothing to indicate that payments the psychiatrist received had in any way influenced his research results. "

VIA PHARMALOT, the first Nemeroff house GSK built is up for SALE and you can take a tour of it here, if you're looking for digs in Atlanta. It's selling for $1.25 million. Virtual tour shows a 5 bedroom home full of your basic Ethan Allen and a baby grand piano showcasing the home is a swimming pool and what the realtor describes as "resort style living". I bet.

"Pascal Goldschmidt... ...found nothing to indicate that payments the psychiatrist received had in any way influenced his research results."

This reminds me of a poster I used to have, as a kid. Lord Nelson was depicted, holding a telescope to his patched eye. The caption underneath read "I see no ships..."
