Florida researcher “cherry picked” data, university investigation finds
What is this about?
This case is about Huabei Jiang, a professor of biomedical engineering, and Lei Yao, a former postdoc and scientist, whose paper got retracted because only certain data points were reported that supported the paper's conclusion.
Why is this important?
Scientific fraud is not only presenting false data, but also publishing only parts of the available data.
