Covering Fraud and Misconduct: Lessons from the Retraction Beat
October 8 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
The scientific process is designed to be rigorous and objective, but it’s also innately human, making it prone to bad actors, tricky financial ties, and broken incentives that invite poor choices. For 16 years, Retraction Watch has reported on these topics through the lens of academic publishing. Veteran science journalist Kate Travis, managing editor at Retraction Watch, will share what she’s learned about covering these stories and more, with plenty of opportunity for questions and conversation.
Speaker:
- Kate Travis, Managing Editor of Retraction Watch
