Hwang in a Nutshell Take 5,982

Peppered with anecdotes not previously printed, this is the best short analysis of the Korean implications of the Hwang Woo-suk matter.

And this is an equally clever take on Gerald Schatten of Pitt by Philadelphia Inquirer.

But perhaps the best piece about Hwang this week isn't about him at all. It comes from Scientific American who discuss all the little lapses that add up to more damage than the big ethical lapses ever could. Anyone who has ever made a little mistake in publishing and research - and seriously who hasn't - should read this piece about nipping and buds.

And easily the worst is this nonsense from Nigel Cameron slamming Peter Singer through the most oddball comparison to Hwang ever construed.
