Sharing In Science On The Rise, But Dartmouth Case Shows Conflicts Over Credit Continue | Radio Boston

"A Dartmouth College investigation concluded that Dr. H. Gilbert Welch at the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice committed "research misconduct," plagiarizing two of his colleagues in an influential paper about the size of breast tumors when they're detected, Retraction Watch reports.

Dr. Welch has challenged the finding, telling Retraction Watch in an email that the data in the paper is publicly available and "all the analyses, all the figures and all the writing in the article are my co-authors' and mine."
