چکیده
In ISBE Newsletter (Supplement to Behavioral Ecology)Volume 17, issue 2 fall/winter 2005 Ken Otter, Newsletter Editor writes among others in Editorial: "this issue also contains an article on scientific misconduct that builds on the commentary by Montgomerie and Birkhead published in the previous Newsletter (ISBE Newsletter 17: 16-24). In his article "Improving the processing of scientific misconduct charges: an eyewitness perspective", Anders Pape M øller uses his own experience on this subject to review and recommend policies for handling accusations of misconduct. Due to the serious consequences on individuals` careers that can stem from charges of misconduct, it is imperative that judicious reviews of the allegations are conducted. I applaud Anders for sharing his experiences, and moreover for using these to analytically assess and provide recommendations for how such cases should be conducted".
