Warrington hospital
The HPC conduct and competence committee struck him off for providing falsified information.
Gough was neither present nor represented at the hearing.
He had worked at Warrington hospital since 1995 and had been researching at the university for five years.
A spokesman for Warrington hospital said: "Whilst this issue had no affect on his job at the trust which was to a good standard, staff at the hospital became suspicious about the claims being made around his qualifications and research and development work being undertaken elsewhere.
"After being asked to give evidence of his qualifications he was claiming and details of his other roles elsewhere, he resigned from working at the trust, albeit on health grounds.
"The claims about body parts – whilst later stated to be said in jest and proved untrue – were obviously concerning and deemed serious enough to alert the relevant authorities at the time and to continue with investigations after he had left the trust."
