Ensuring Scientific Publishing Credibility In Translational Biomedical Optics., Brian W. Pogue Jan 2019

Ensuring Scientific Publishing Credibility In Translational Biomedical Optics., Brian W. Pogue

Dartmouth Scholarship

Optics has consistently been the largest singular technology sector used in medicine, and major advances in biomedical optics are documented daily in peer-reviewed publications. However, the academic stature of this field can be damaged by weaknesses in scientific publishing, where a “credibility crisis” has emerged as a popularized and increasingly studied dialogue. While there are still relatively few overt cases of fraud or erroneous research, more insidious aspects are seen in papers with results that have either low statistical power, selective reporting of observations, or data or computer codes that cannot be independently verified. Interestingly, the same solutions that improve …
