The incident of making the fake of thesis of seminar of Zhejiang University: How far is truth?
If China Medicine University Professor wore Germany to complain one's own once students to Zhejiang University College of Pharmacy since October 15 last year, associate professor He HaiBo who studied after Zhejiang University College of Pharmacy does to doctors at that time was not agreed, the magazine can be regarded as while publishing the thesis to use one's own a group of data abroad, the thesis of seminar of Zhejiang University makes the fake the incident is exposed for more than 4 months; If from relevant media Israel of February 3 this year " The academician is suspected of being involved in making the fake and is cancelled by the international periodical taking the lead in seminar's many theses " It is a question, reveal publicly the thesis of seminar of Zhejiang University made the fake to calculate, already a fast the past one month too so far. What if the incident investigate and handle progress? What on earth is the truth? What kind of measure has school side of Zhejiang University taken to take precautions against after the accident happened this kind of incident happens once again? Have the teachers and students in the swirl centre of the incident been influenced? 16 diaries person go to Zhejiang University to interview in February, the reply received is an incident still in the further investigation, waiting to have further results will be announced to the media. Other situations which the reporter wants to find out about, because the entrance guard of College of Pharmacy very severely fails to achieve one's goal too. Because the incident involves Li LianDa, academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, the reporter interview Chinese Academy of Engineering in numerous connections, the reply of Chinese Academy of Engineering is the same shortly after the reply received takes place just like the thing: This is in course of investigating. Staff reporter Li TianShu HaiBo He wonder, end " have certificate, how come in you? " See that there are reporters that call on, the director of office of Zhejiang University College of Pharmacy asks like this. In a corner of Zhejiang University beautiful school of Zijin harbour district, 5 floors that the College of Pharmacy belongs to can not be counted as attracting attention, if nobody is difficult to find to instruct. With different from the institutes of a school of differences, has set up guest's registration in the gate of College of Pharmacying, teachers and students need to verify the certificate can come in and go out, but reporters have mixed in by sheer good luck. The corridor end of the third floor of College of Pharmacy, it is the pharmacological research office of traditional Chinese medicine. Apply to the table on duty on the wall, can not find the name which congratulates the hypo. Congratulated the hypo in June of 2006 and graduated from university from the Chinese medicine family, entered the mobile station for the post-doctors of Zhejiang University College of Pharmacy and carried on post-doctor's research, the cooperation tutor is academician Li LianDa, the chief of research office is associate professor Wu LiMao. July of 2008 is congratulated and engaged as the associate professor by Zhejiang University. But make the fake incident by oneself after the disclosure, cancel school side the intersection of associate professor and post and He HaiBo of the qualifications will it be November 13 last year, disappeared from people's visual field. As to the thing that reporter appear suddenly though surprise, responsible for very getting courteous to say Mr. Chen that laboratory work: "The ones that were imagined with the external world are different, we have not received great influence. Everybody has no time to think deeply and pays close attention to these things. " "Does the external report have pressures on you? " The reporter asks. "Will influence a bit more or less. How to go next, everybody does not think. " "After Dr. He has left, has his research been stopped? " "We belong to a seminar, except he, there are other teachers. He has left, other tasks of people are a little bit many. But can say responsibly, the subject is not influenced, everybody bring the students whom he guided together. " However, Yang Wei, headmaster of Zhejiang University, once introduced to the reporter, this appearance of the incident, make the development of this laboratory suffer the setback greatly. 8 graduate students of the group are all worried about development prospect, the periodical contribution in recent months of the whole group faces the situation refused because of distrusting. How will these students to grow up healthy and sound and obtain the degree, and the question which the school will consider conscientiously that it is the College of Pharmacy at present in the future. But what is result that consider conscientiously, at present unable to find out. What measures as to the incident the school will only take after happening to stop this kind of problem recuring, Yang Wei once revealed to the reporter, a thinking has already been brought into schedule, the management educational work of new teacher, post-doctor should be strengthened, from educational angle to work out a regular, distinct regulation, carry on training to the new teacher in one year, the new inbound post-doctor accepts every 3 months a management system is trained. In addition, for instance the communication author should shoulder any contents such as the responsibility for kind,etc.s and spread education. The reporter has also interviewed two graduate students in the College of Pharmacy. One say thesis that make the fake so many at the society now, first one check, who check over? Another one tells reporters, the tutor had a meeting, required the thesis written to clearly mark quoting the source of the materials a few days ago. The reporter wants to interview the institute of College of Pharmacy and go through a director on this question, the institute goes through a director to say, the incident, still in investigating and prosecuting, it is inconvenient to take a stand, all questions should be answered by the school side. Wu LiMao will receive the task of interviewing thesis incident of making the fake of the media to the information office of the school in the school side of Zhejiang University if Wu LiMao does not come back yet. The not at school administrative floor of information office, but the garret in a white shape building of crescent moon, there is not any sign on the door. Teacher Gao of the information office tells reporters, Zhejiang University has announced a survey report to thesis incident of making the fake. Reporter watch the survey report that come out before being annual carefully, discovering still would have already offer those contents of the media in fact. On the same day when the reporter left Zhejiang University, the information office of Zhejiang University sends an E-mail and says for the reporter: "Because I check this incident still in the further investigation, during this period, we no longer arrange to interview the matters. Wait to have further investigation results, we will announce to the media. " The report that the information office of Zhejiang University offers says, it is in process to investigate, some parties have no " show up " . For example unite Wu LiMao who signs the word in all theses of making the fake, as the chief leading cadre in pharmacological research office of traditional Chinese medicine, go U.S.A. do visiting scholar on will it be August 2008 already, take, can go back school on will it be August 2010 on schedule. At present, the school requires him to come back as soon as possible, cooperate with the further investigation. According to such a statement, it seems to be that only Wu LiMao in U.S.A. comes back to cooperate, there may be progress in the investigation. Wear Germany: The foreign magazine requires me to make in Germany clear pharmacology professor, doctoral supervisor of China Medicine University in Nanjing the thing to wear, emphasize repeatedly when being interviewed by reporter: "Not because I expose at first, but after the foreign magazine finds, require me to make this piece of anything clear. " Wearing Germany reveals the course how oneself is involved in this incident passively for the reporter, some factors are full of accidentally. On October 11, 2008, wear Germany and receive InternationalJCardiology (" international cardiology magazine ") The associate editor's letters, point out and wear the laboratory of Germany to throw a thesis and PhytotherapyResearch (" the plant treatment is studied ") to this publication Have It is very similar to table that some in the thesis already published are pursued, it seems that comes from the same initial data, require it to make rational explanation. It is very surprised to wear Germany. "In 2005, were we once here?

Will it be November 007 year, I invite him come our school participate in one small-scale academic meeting again, we explain the research progress in field this moreover. He is with deep impression, it is known that plain mechanism of this inner skin is in the international academia, only my seminar is engaged in relevant research. Last year, it was accepted for " international cardiology magazine " that we threw the thesis of a piece of relevant research results, he finds the same data appear on another this issue of publication while having a look around the latest literature in routine. "international cardiology magazine "associate editor two article pdf ( An electronic text way) One edition of full texts is sent to me, require me to explain the situation at the same time. " Wear Germany to find at once, he a step of " twin theses " published first The first author is He HaiBo, a doctor who graduated from his laboratory two years ago. Two theses, medicines used are different, animal's pathologic models are different, data and chart that but it is totally unanimous to obtain, even have all the same characters of some relevant paragraphs. Wear Germany find whom HaiBo He plagiarize wear the intersection of Germany and the intersection of laboratory and materials, come from this laboratory one the intersection of doctor and thesis that graduate 2005, also we throw to the second author in a thesis of " international cardiology magazine " this time, people are in U.S.A. at present. He HaiBo makes the fake and fastens one person's story upon another person in the thesis, pieces together and forges. Wear Germany tell reporter whether make the fake article to be very similar to thesis that we throw. For example animal's pathologic model is changed from myocardium disease to myocardium infarction, the medicine changes into red phenol sour B it is joined than that general profit (benazepril) of the medicine shellfish and positive . But if only see Pubmed ' U.S.A.'s medical network) Summary,find make the fake plagiarize. Only through comparing with pdf full text, will find the clue. While receiving " international cardiology magazine " for the second time and requiring the letters explained, wearing Germany realizes the severity of the incident. Out of defending the purpose with clean academy, wear Germany in " international cardiology magazine " letter and two pdf full texts on October 15, 2008, transmit to the leader of College of Pharmacy of Zhejiang University, ask them to analyze the properties of the incident, and caused the great attention of the leader of Zhejiang University. After receiving and wearing Germany's letter, Zhejiang University College of Pharmacy requires He HaiBo and is " the plant treatment is studied " the editor-in-chief to write to, dismiss from the draft in connection. But He HaiBo has not been said and plagiarized by the letter that edits, so the other side answers: The mistake can publish the list of errata, can't dismiss from. The result initiates the 3rd letter of editorial department of " international cardiology magazine ", demand to wear Germany to write to two magazine editors-in-chief, it explains that it is the thesis of making the fake to already publish in " the plant treatment is studied " to put to the proof. There is no alternative, on October 18, 2008, " the plant treatment will be studied " the editor-in-chief EMWilliamson professor to wear Germany and write to, propose plagiarizing the source in false data. Get clear dismissing from the draft to reply next day, the other side will come from Zhejiang University the members of this seminar have already been removed together too. On October 23, 2008, two magazines will issue the joint statement: Cancel and forge the thesis. As the doctoral supervisor, wear Germany cannot help but feel the improper behavior of the academy to one's own students. After incident happen, congratulate hypo, come teacher, guide of Nanjing, apologize on a special trip: "However, our thesis of the laboratory of his behavioral influence was issued, he has taken away the experimental data of fellow apprentices teacher and sister, then forge the thesis to issue. " Student build rhizoid treat one's neighbours like strangers in Tan Jia teachers and students, staff reporter of teacher, study a graduate student of universities and colleges to accept on the graduation ceremony a dean awards medals in some medicine. The president asks: "Who is your tutor? " Students answer a bit awkwardly: "You are my tutor. " This is a true story. The thesis of post-doctor of College of Pharmacy of Zhejiang University makes the fake the thing involves in Li LianDa, academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering. Li LianDa admits frankly, he does not know the situation of publishing thesis of He HaiBo,et al. when being interviewed by reporter. Appear the intersection of thesis and make the fake, one the intersection of draft and two the intersection of person who throw and question now, though the problem takes place on student, but as the tutor, he wants to bear the responsible for negligent of managementing. To such a statement, a lot of people are startled: "How could the tutor know students' behavior? " But pursuing the master degree in a lot of to seem, this kind of phenomenon is really too usually. That person give president that graduate student that oneself bring award medals, to connect with, bring graduate student for many years, know by oneself? In Chongqing the institute Xiao Wu who studies for doctorate of the pediatrics of the medical university is telling reporters, one classmate of him visit in some medicine studying universities and colleges under the a famous Professor's door. The professor's society hold a part-time job, academic activities are all a very large number of, this classmate can see a teacher is good twice in one year, most time are from laboratory " Two bosses " Guiding. "Compared with him, I have happy and many. There can be two or three times and teacher's discussing the subject, chance to examine of going out every month. " Investigations reveal, it is two disappointed great main reasons most to the tutor of graduate students that busy, bring to students too many. A Master degree candidate who chooses dictorial supervisor as the tutor says laughing at oneself: "The tutor may not know me either. We become educated through independent study. " The reporter w doctor, the big senior apprentice takes the little junior fellow apprentice, it is extremely general too in graduate student's cultivation that the old doctor takes the phenomenon of the new doctor,s. Awkward why come whom teachers and students treat one's neighbours like strangers an example. The personage analyzes, the whys and wherefores " either tutor's reputation is too big, or tutor's reputation is too small " . Tutor's reputation is too big, just very busy naturally, can't attend to students; Tutor's reputation is too small, do not qualify for employing doctors, can only enroll new students in the name of other dictorial supervisors, do things in oneself under one's command. And that one " Nominal dictorial supervisor " It is very difficult to remember naturally" One's own graduate student " Name and appearance. According to relevant investigations, each doctoral supervisor in our country should take 5.77 doctoral candidates on average, well-above foreign each tutor's strip and 2 to 3 students' proportion. "The teacher just has the ability to bring students with ' energy '. " Subsidiary secretary of children's hospital Professor Wei GuangHui of medical university in Chongqing says, become graduate student's tutor and demand to have corresponding academic level, clinical experience,etc., meanwhile, require the teacher to have enough time and energy to guide students too. Some tutors are even one Individual should take dozens of doctors, masters. And the school hopes the capable, competent tutor with popularity can take several students more, do several subjects more, publish several articles more. But students have too much quantity, it is difficult for the tutor to take every student into account in fact. "As soon as the tutor is busy not attending to, students will worry about and graduate to take place the thesis again, is it probably very difficult for such a thesis to guarantee the goods? The water hole of Jie is idle! ? A doctoral supervisor points out confessing freely, many graduate student's tutor's concerns of students are in a greatly reduced state compared with what it used to be now. More famous graduate student's tutor, especially " big shot " As soon as the tutor is often carried on the shoulder by administration, scientific research, clinic, teaching, the administrative work will occupy over half of the time and energy soon, and then remove scientific research and work clinically for time taken, just there is not much the time left for student left. Also the personage points out, the doctoral supervisor's level is different now, some tutor apply subject, student can make while being untitled, for graduate, take place the thesis on the issue to unavoidably fabricate the experimental data, false thesis of establishment. Teacher must responsible for student glory Wei think medicine learn the enrollment of the universities and colleges should keep the appropriate scale, should not expand and employ blindly. Otherwise the shortage of teachers' strength, will be very unfavorable to the cultivation of medical talents. "Student in subject in tutor think really of making, could get tutor's real guidance only. " The tutor's " idea " The quantity is always limited, student's quantity swells sharply, not enough to go around, the teacher's guidance to student is difficult to guarantee and really implement, this influences the quality of medical personnel training seriously too. Chongqing medical university attaches to Yang Pei, Vice President of first hospital, and says again, the tutor's mode of thinking, impact on student of attitude,etc. of conducting oneself and doing thing, it is very difficult to compare to be other people. It must have strong responsibility consciousness so do to a teacher, otherwise just harm the younger generation. Now, a lot of students are used to calling the tutor " bosses " ,The teacher-student relationship is dissimilated as " The employer-employee relationship " ,It is to help the teacher to work to become and study, recruited to work if the tutor employs a graduate student, this kind of current situation is very wrong. "Since students have followed you, you must shoulder responsibility for students. " Subsidiary directors of children, doctoral supervisor Professor Li TingYu of medical university in Chongqing thinks, stop academy making the fake, train qualified medical talents, " the teacher should exchange with students more, communicate more, it is very important that the course is controlled " . The tutor can follow up studying progress of students in time, grasp the whole course learnt to study, but not ignore the course, only see the result; Do not read the experiment, only read the thesis. Dispel the false " fire wall " How to build the incident of making the fake of staff reporter Li TianShu bubbling with noise Zhejiang University thesis, examine ethical intuitive knowledge and academic sincerity of the scientific research workers of our country sternly, also give our country current scientific research mechanism to sound the alarm. The incident of making the fake frequent today revealed in the thesis, the ones that set up and play a can play ing role dispel the false " fire wall " Already very urgent, each side concerned can't have ostrich's psychologies again, keeps silent. Laboratory - -Thesis can deliver " Blocked by nothing " "If can stop up the loophole of the thesis ' production ink ', this one makes the fake the incident perhaps can avoid. " Pharmacology professor, doctoral supervisor of China Medicine University wear Germany and say. Wear Germany and say, the standardized management of the laboratory should be strengthened. The thesis coming out from the laboratory, the first author should keep initial data and picture record in the thesis intact, and check strictly, this requirement should become the system. Wear Germany to think, the tutors and communication authors take in line with the responsible attitude, to writing the academic value of the thesis, scientific and original, should all bear corresponding responsibility. Pdf edition formed after and drop before the thesis is dropped, the tutors should all check and confirm, what signed with final proof was checked on answering the questions of persons who go over a manuscript or draft, copyright assignment while reprocessing, should read and revise conscientiously, then can confirm, be unable to let the first author take on. Checking and checking and must pay attention to to data and thesis, there should be records, can check, stop the loophole in order to be put on record. The reporter knows while interviewing, He HaiBo publishes the academic magazine of Europe of the article, publish involving the fee of layout in thesis, but the expenses will not be very high, do not generally exceed 100 dollars. Many academic magazines cancel the fee of layout too nowadays, but which involves the colored picture, will all collect the high colored picture and deal with the fee, a picture costs 750 dollars, it is paid from subject funds that this sum of expenses generally costs. In addition, it express that in the know that the academic magazine requires all signature authors to sign. Involved academician Li LianDa who enters thesis incident of making the fake because of uniting and signing words, have indicated to know nothing to the thesis of making the fake from the beginning to the end. Scholar Fang Zhouzi points out, the academician busy with administration work now and social activities, have no time, energy is engaged in scientific research, some should take dozens of graduate students, think the tube can not be in charge of over either, even thesis of student's finishing, contribution may not be read, sign, sign by all means, even sign and let people substitute sometimes, this phenomenon merits attention. Academic periodical - -Investigate the system answers " Effective all the life " At the beginning of February this year, because of several picture mistakes, the famous academic periodical " cell " magazine cancelled a Chinese scholar's article, distance the article it issues to be already 9 years at this moment. This kind of " effective all the life " Investigate by system, idea of leaving things to chance that be is it improper to last academied? It is reported, " cells " cancel an research article regarding bacterial infection and natural immunity activate issued 2000, the picture that the reason is the article has gone wrong. This incident arouses the attention from domestic scholar, because cancel thesis, but after 9 years, as academic magazine scientific spirit and rigorous attitude shown, find suspicious thesis, no matter how long in the past it will be time, cancelled, discuss no. The medical college subsidiary Professor Shi HuanZhong in Peking Union Medical College Hospital of Tongji University of Central China University of Science and Technology points out, the course is very complicated that the outstanding medical magazine distributes new dispatchs abroad, the general procedure is that an author passes Internet's contribution, in most cases is demanded to recommend 3 to 5 responsible readers to journal editorial office, either can propose, hope the intersection of responsible reader and list that go over a manuscript or draft, take, enclose reason, such as " cooperator in the past " Or " have interests conflicts " When. These are the first barrier, the magazine will determine whether to return the draft or not, is compiled under the editorship of directly responsible pair of thesis sometimes to judge whether to adopt, responsible readers recommended are uncertain that is all adopted. After the manuscript is sent and examined, if the expert thinks value not high, put forward and return the draft suggestion, the thesis is published too " Hopeless " . But if determine to adopt, the author also needs to feedback the opinion to revise according to the expert, revise, send off and examine, need sometimes to be repeated more A time. Shi HuanZhong says, it is rigorous that this course has reflected the academic magazine, it is issued that the contribution of thesis gets to cost more than one year sometimes. But the top academic magazine now, will be very short from accepting the thesis to the time to publish the thesis, the reason is that these magazines pay attention to the prescroption of scientific research more and more, a strong professional team supports at the same time. In order to raise academic periodical and ability that the scientific research project management organization distinguishes the improper literature of academy, some foreign academic magazines have been set up and assessed by the authoritative expert first, later the authoritative evaluation expert studied the thesis carefully, is it representative to ask the scientist of some position neutrality to study the relevant achievement together finally, thus the one that determine that could publish " Treble to defend the system safely " . But even so, this system can not stop up all theses of making the fake either. For example South Korean scientist Huang YuXi makes the fake in stem-cell research, has shocked the world. For this reason, every academic periodical has strengthened the attack to thesis of making the fake. Congratulating hypo this time, the plot has come to light, but the vice editor-in-chief of the academic periodical passed the retrieval system discovered the problems. The expert says, the academic magazine is besides the strict procedure, the thesis should also be " effective all the life " to making the fake Punish severely,by behaviors improper, how long in the past no matter incident is be, cancel the thesis with latecomer of this warning. Scientific research institutions - -It is " passive " to melt For " take the initiative " The thesis makes the fake for more than one year continuously to make the fake, quantity is not two for one, why has it not been found by Zhejiang University where one stays? Why not work for the supervision mechanism of the initiative? The expert points out, against the improper behavior of academy, can't totally place hope on " contains by oneself " of scientific research workers while giving an interview ,The scientific research institutions will set up the academic supervisory system of initiative, will set up the improper one archival repository of academy, stop up in order to avoid going after going wrong " The hole " Passive state. It is reported, Zhejiang University issued " ethical behavioural norm of Zhejiang University's academy " in 2004, have put forward the academic code of ethic that should be observed to the teacher, post-doctor, graduate student and undergraduate while carrying on academic activity. The school has established by the managing Vice President of the school for the group leader, it is that persons in charge are the member's ethical question investigation group of academy to be in charge of school leader and relevant functional department and institute, responsible for, violate the intersection of academy and ethical Mr., carry on the investigation suspected of being involved ining. However, the file has not played a role in frightening and hindering to counterfeiters, but there are more ethical question investigation groups of academy " wise afterwards " that acted Role. Scientific research workers tell reporters, while the thesis is issued, it is mainly the function that a thesis is put on record and collects that the universities and scientific research institutes are performed, lack and take precautions against means and mechanism that the academic morals go wrong, go through the motions if some punish, various honors and benefits that the thesis obtain that even not to deprive counterfeiters and rely on making the fake, how to walk like this. The system is reviewed - -Pay attention to the thesis to leave " The hot head " The He HaiBo incident happens in Zhejiang University, and this university exactly, has surmounted numerous famous universities in our country during these years, have occupied the first in SCI thesis ranked. Place on the background of incident of making the fake and come down to look, this is very thought-provoking. One insisting on anonymity the intersection of Zhejiang University and post-doctor, the origin points to " some systems of achievement " of Zhejiang University make the fake . He say Zhejiang University examine to the intersection of scientific research and work load of worker every year, bonus, and subsidy appropriate to a particular job release based on of those years achievement, order, come, count, issue detailed the intersection of achievement and some policy also for this reason, how much achievement order . Publishing an article has several authors, the achievement is divided by these authors when being clicked, the first and second author has relatively great proportion. It is many to check the achievement, subsidy appropriate to a particular job and bonus are high, even the associate professor's salary will exceed the professor. Have encouraged worker's enthusiasm of publishing article of scientific research greatly in some systems of achievement. As to this, the doctor points out, similar policy all scientific research institutions are very much the same. By contrast, some medical organization it draws several Wan to be even bonus of hundreds of thousands yuan directly, give ample rewards to the medical personnel publishing the thesis abroad on the authoritative magazine. The doctor afford to worry very much, belong to the research that is done in order to send the thesis completely, has not basically benefited clinical possibility. The expert points out, the ones that have reflected scientific circles from the side and lacked to scientific research in thesis incident of making the fake have judged the standard objectively. Only " thesis " It is the current situation of looking forward that reveals, the appraisal on research work needs pluralistic index urgently, it could cool for heat of the thesis to weaken the rigid function of the thesis at the same time.
