The Case of Vipul Bhrigu and the Federal Definition of Research Misconduct
What is this about?
The Office of Research Integrity found in 2011 that a postdoctoral researcher who sabotaged a colleague’s research materials, was guilty of misconduct[1]. This case describes when something is considered as scientific misconduct and whether this really was the case. This is a factual case.

Why is this important?
When accuding someone for committing scientific fraud, it is important that the definition is clear en interpretative by everybody.
