The Scientific Method01:32

The Scientific Method

275.3K
The scientific method is a detailed, empirical problem-solving process used by biologists and other scientists. This iterative approach involves formulating a question based on observation, developing a testable potential explanation for the observation (called a hypothesis), making and testing predictions based on the hypothesis, and using the findings to create new hypotheses and predictions.
Generally, predictions are tested using carefully-designed experiments. Based on the outcome of these...

Symbiosis

38.6K
Symbiotic relationships are long-term, close interactions between individuals of different species that affect the distribution and abundance of those species. When a relationship is beneficial to both species, this is called mutualism. When the relationship is beneficial to one species but neither beneficial nor harmful to the other species, this is called commensalism. When one organism is harmed to benefit another, the relationship is known as parasitism. These types of relationships often...

In-vitro Mutagenesis

17.7K
To learn more about the function of a gene, researchers can observe what happens when the gene is inactivated or “knocked out,” by creating genetically engineered knockout animals. Knockout mice have been particularly useful as models for human diseases such as cancer, Parkinson’s disease, and diabetes.

Viral Mutations00:36

Viral Mutations

40.8K
A mutation is a change in the sequence of bases of DNA or RNA in a genome. Some mutations occur during replication of the genome due to errors made by the polymerase enzymes that replicate DNA or RNA. Unlike DNA polymerase, RNA polymerase is prone to errors because it is not capable of “proofreading” its work. Viruses with RNA-based genomes, like HIV, therefore accrue mutations faster than viruses with DNA-based genomes. Because mutation and recombination provide the raw material...

Altruism01:03

Altruism

49.1K
Altruistic behaviors are “unselfish” behaviors—those that help another individual at the expense of the individual carrying out the behavior. Despite the negative consequences for the altruistic animal, these behaviors are thought to have evolved for several reasons.

Area of Science:

  • Scientific publishing ethics
  • Research integrity

Background:

  • Authorship disputes and scientific misconduct are prevalent issues in academic publishing.
  • The 'publish-or-perish' culture can exacerbate these problems.
  • Existing guidelines for authorship are often unclear or inconsistently applied.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review appropriate authorship criteria and common scientific misconducts.
  • To discuss the reasons for and consequences of misconduct.
  • To propose policies for authors to ensure ethical practices and prevent authorship issues.

Main Methods:

  • A narrative review of literature was conducted.
  • Searches were performed on Google and PubMed using keywords such as 'scientific misconduct', 'honorary/ghost authorship', 'publish-or-perish', and 'plagiarism'.
  • Over 300 free full-text articles published between 1990 and 2015 were analyzed.

Main Results:

  • Consensus exists on authorship criteria and the definition of scientific misconduct.
  • Issues surrounding authorship in dissertations and 'grey zone' publications were identified.
  • Various suggestions for improving authorship practices were compiled from expert authorities.

Conclusions:

  • Clear authorship guidelines and adherence to ethical standards are crucial for maintaining research integrity.
  • Awareness of and proactive measures against scientific misconduct are essential for all authors.
  • Implementing suggested policies can help mitigate authorship conflicts and promote fair publication practices.
