“A Harvard University researcher accused of smuggling clawed frog embryos into the United States was indicted Wednesday on additional charges. Kseniia Petrova, a Russian-born scientist conducting cancer research for Harvard Medical School, was indicted Wednesday by a federal grand jury in Boston on one count of concealment of a material fact, one count of false statement and one count of smuggling goods into the United States. She had been charged with the smuggling in May. Despite the additional charges, Petrova will remain on pretrial release. A lawyer for Petrova could not be reached for comment. She was returning from a vacation from France in February when she was questioned by U.S. Customs and Border Protection at Boston Logan International Airport. Petrova, 30, had stopped at a lab specializing in splicing superfine sections of frog embryos and obtained a package of samples for research.” (06/25/25)
