A leading researcher who published on the topic of honesty, Francesca Gino of Harvard Business School has been accused of dishonesty, of fabricating findings. This story has been covered on many sites, with the main theme being the obvious irony of it all. But, is this really so odd? Articles forthcoming on this blog will discuss the issue of fraud in academia, including medical and health research, which indicates, that some degree of fraud or sharp practice is mainstream in academia, and the system literally runs on it. Publish or perish has led to researchers often having to cook results to get that next grant perhaps from Big Pharma. Refutations and negative critiques do not usually get published, being chopped by typically corrupt editors, who are servants of the same corporates.
