TIP TROVE | How to Stem Seduction
The allure of money and status has become a distraction that can divert even a "good" scientist from seeking the truth. Just the appearance of conflict of interest can damage the credibility of your research. Preserve intellectual freedom by not signing research contracts that give control of research or its publication to sponsors. Disclose the funding sources of specific research, and other potentially biasing ties. Be familiar with your institution's conflict-of-interest policy, follow it, and help to strengthen it where necessary.
