Collateral Damage in a Biology Institute
What is this about?
In 2014 in a high ranking stem cell research institute in Japan a research misconduct case came to light. The case was excessively covered by the media. The media not only portrayed the accused scientists as perpetrators, the entire research centre was critized. The the entire research centre 'felt under attack'.
how it affects others who are not directly involved in the case. This is a factual case. The topic is stem cell research.Why is this important?
Revelations of scientific misconduct always cause collateral damage[1].
