Vol. 78 No. 9 (2024): Scientific Integrity: Added Constraint or Best Practice?
This issue of CHIMIA is devoted to scientific integrity, with a particular emphasis on chemistry. Recent incidences of high-profile figures contesting scientific findings in order to boost their own agenda in areas such as human health; worldwide pandemics; climate change and the impact of artificial intelligence on society highlight how “Fake News” is given credibility boosted by examples of scientific misconduct that open the door to questions about the integrity of scientists and their research. Research integrity is an issue for all scientists who should embrace the promotion of best practices in their own disciplines.
