The Aftermath of Scientific Fraud
What is this about?
Scientific fraud became front-page news at the end of last year, when a South Korean stem cell researcher admitted to fabricating data about cloned human embryonic stem cell lines that he claimed were created from patients. Much of the press coverage focused on the fallout of his actions on the public's trust in science and the already fragile image of stem cell research[1]. This is a factual case.
- ↑ Bonetta, Laura. "The aftermath of scientific fraud." Cell 124.5 (2006): 873-875.
Why is this important?
The aftermath of scientific fraud can result in harmful consequences for responsible authors, journal audience [1], whistleblowers who expose it [2], but also for science itself since these misconducts reduce public’s trust in science [3]. In addition, scientific fraud in medical research can have serious public health consequences since it has a direct impact on the physical and psychological well-being of the individual.
