Research Abuse

Research abuse refers to unethical practices in scientific studies that compromise the integrity of research. This can include manipulated data, misrepresentation of findings, plagiarism, or failing to obtain proper consent from participants. Such actions undermine the credibility of research, mislead the public, and can harm individuals if studies influence health, policy, or technology decisions incorrectly. Ensuring ethical standards helps maintain trust in science and protects the well-being of participants and society at large.
