CBS In the News

Research by Columbia Business School’s Professor Geoffrey Heal was featured in the Columbia Daily Spectator in coverage of a forthcoming university conflict of interest policy. In the article by Fiona Hu, Professor Heal and his co-authors’ counter-analysis is referenced in response to a 2022 study examining fossil fuel funding and research outcomes. Their work challenges conclusions that energy research centers funded by fossil fuel companies are systematically biased, contributing to ongoing debates about funding sources and academic research integrity.
