Research Integrity Brownbag on J.H Schon

By Lawrence B. Ebert, Esq.

IPBiz ran across a set of PowerPoints on "research integrity." [pdf format]

IPBiz notes that BEFORE the Beasley committee was formed, many physicists were questioning the results of Schon AND their questioning was falling on deaf ears, at Bell Labs and at the journals. [LBE published one comment, rejected by Nature, in IPT.]
It was the "tip" on the duplicated graphs that actually caused the Schon fraud to unravel.

The PowerPoints do observe that Schon was not keeping lab notebooks.

[There seemed to be no discussion of Hwang Woo Suk in the "research integrity" slides.]
