Fourth speaker in #ResearchMisconduct session - Stefan Franzen "How not to design research misconduct policy" #FEBS2018
Franzen: Scientific funding has been dramatically shaken up by #InternationalPropertyRights and #TechnologyTransfer, incrementally since Bayh-Dole Act
Franzen: What happened to the *science* taking the lead in what gets published? #PublicationEthics
Franzen: "smoking gun" data can kept out of public gaze by exploiting "confidentiality" justifications #ResearchMisconduct
Franzen: a lot of people can be affected following "leads" that come from fraudulent data as they let it steer their own research #ResearchMisconduct @FEBSnews
Franzen: attempt to draw attention in the scientific literature to errors in a patented "invention" challenged by lawsuits and accusations that confidentiality had been breached #ResearchMisconduct
Franzen: Universities cannot be trusted to robustly defend scientists who are taking on validity of patented "inventions" @FEBSnews
Franzen: referring back to point made by Rupp, a journal that declined to retract a paper as the data was just wrong, not fake #PublicationEthics
Franzen: this reference gives some details on the case being discussed sciencemag.org/news/2016/02/n… #ResearchIntegrity
Franzen: recommends reading "Betrayers of the Truth" and "The Great Betrayal" re Baltimore case #ResearchMisconduct @FEBSnews
