heres a short statement:

With regard to an =nsubstantiated third-party allegation against me regarding a supposed incident in Australia in Nov 2016: This allegation was investigated by 2 universities with which I am associated and both investigations independently came to the same conclusion. There was no evidence of any inappropriate conduct, there was evidence that the claim was both false and fabricated, and therefore =efamatory. Upon a request from Buzzfeed about this to one of these institutions, they were informed of this fact.
