I have seen this Prof. I spent 3 months at the Commonwealth Building, part of Hammersmith Hospital, Imperial College.

I worked for this guy. After 3 months there, he decided that we are moving to UCL. He got a better offer for him and the group. Imperial tried to convince him otherwise, he denied. And then it got nasty...

He started getting mean emails from two big guys of the faculty and our move was sabotaged. It was delayed over and over again. Then they told him that he is not allowed to take 1mil pounds of grant money with him because the grant is bound to Imperial etc.

It was not fun, but I think its going better at UCL...
