ABSTRACT

You won’t hear us often say that a legalistic approach needs to be taken to be the institutional approach to the investigation of research misconduct or the response to findings of misconduct.  But this open access paper from the Netherlands, published in January 2023, makes a cogent argument for a jurisprudence approach to research misconduct investigations and outcomes.  If nothing else, it would make the steps and actions more predictable.

In this paper we will describe the arguments to adopt a jurisprudence platform for scientific misconduct, we argue that this will increase the principle of legal certainty, improve procedures, and will promote scientific integrity in other, indirect ways. With the platform that we are currently setting up in the Netherlands as a motivating example, we finally also describe the prerequisites for such a platform, its contents as well as its value in the international context.
