Aim and content
This talk is open to PhD students as well as postdocs and assistant professors.
Content
Science builds upon science. Even after peer-review and publication, science papers could still contain images or other data of concern.
If not addressed post-publication, papers containing incorrect or even falsified data could lead to wasted time and money spent by other researchers trying to reproduce those results. Several high-profile science misconduct cases have been described, but many more cases remain undetected.
Elisabeth Bik is an image forensics detective who left her paid job in industry to search for and report biomedical articles that contain errors or data of concern.
She has done a systematic scan of 20,000 papers in 40 journals and found that about 4% of these contained inappropriately duplicated images.
In her talk she will present her work and show several types of inappropriately duplicated images and other examples of research misconduct. In addition, she will show how to report scientific papers of concern, and how journals and institutions handle such allegations.
Relevance to graduate programmes
The talk is relevant to PhD students from the following graduate programmes at the Graduate School of Health and Medical Sciences, UCPH:
- All graduate programmes
About the speaker

Her work has resulted in over 800 retracted and almost 1,000 corrected papers.
