The former associate director of the National Library of Medicine has been charged with making a fraudulent statement on his financial disclosure form by not admitting he earned $165,234 from a side consulting business in 2005, court documents said.
Jack W. Snyder no longer works for the federal agency, a spokeswoman said, declining to comment further. The library falls under the Department of Health and Human Services’ jurisdiction.
Efforts to reach Snyder for comment were unsuccessful.
Snyder has held a number of positions in corporate, government and academics during his more than 20 years as a physician and attorney. He is a past president of the American College of Legal Medicine, and he has been a member of the Board of Directors of the Annapolis Center for Science-Base Public Policy and secretary of the American Board of Legal Medicine.
Snyder received his medical degree from Northwestern University and his law degree from Georgetown University.
