Controversy

The death of 4-year-old Rebecca Riley of Hull, Massachusetts, in 2006^[2] due to an overdose of drugs for attention deficit disorder and bipolar disorder occasioned public focus on the prescribing of such drugs to very young children. Although the parents were convicted of intentionally overdosing the child, the role of Joseph Biederman in promoting such prescribing was widely criticized.

Conflict of interest investigations

In 2008, Senator Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, undertook a Congressional investigation^[3] that alleged that Joseph Biederman, M.D., Timothy Wilens, M.D., and Thomas Spencer, M.D. had violated federal, Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts General Hospital regulations by receiving large sums of money from the pharmaceutical companies.^[4] Biederman and Wilens "were leading investigators and advocates for the diagnosis and treatment of bipolar disorder in children and adolescents."^[3] Biederman earned consulting fees of at least $1.6 million over eight years from pharmaceutical companies, but did not report much of this income to university officials.^[5]^[6] Johnson & Johnson gave more than $700,000 to a research center that was headed by Biederman from 2002 to 2005, and some of its research was about Risperdal,^[7] the company's antipsychotic drug.^[8]^[9] These allegations prompted an investigation by the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Biederman responded saying that the money did not influence him and that he did not promote a specific diagnosis or treatment.^[8] In 2011, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School disciplined Biederman, Wilens and Spencer for small violations conflict of interest of policies but most of the allegations made against them were not substantiated.^[10] All retain their academic standing at Harvard and their clinical positions at the Massachusetts General Hospital.
