It seems that increasingly scientific publications are being pulled from publications following discovery of some fraud, misrepresentation, or other misconduct related to the science or the data involved. The manipulation, misrepresentation, and fraudulent use of experimental results has been a problem for science since science began. Whether it is increasing in frequency, or rather just becoming noticed and discovered more thanks to growing awareness and vigilance, would be an interesting subject for study. Here, we will examine its nature, its various forms, some of its causes, and ways to find and prevent scientific misconduct of various kinds, specifically those we are apt to call “fraud.”
