, is stepping down as chief scientific officer at Centessa Pharmaceuticals following reports of sexual harassment allegations at another company earlier this week.of Galvani Bioelectronics, a joint venture between GlaxoSmithKline and Verily, after a woman sent a letter saying he sexually harassed her several years ago that the company said were "substantiated."

Was this sexual harassment? Or did he violate a company policy via a mutual relationship with an employee of the company? I don't know the answer, but I am not sure a mutual relationship should ever be defined as 'Sexual Harassment'. Was there a crime? Or just a co. policy?
