Scientific misconduct and the pressures that drive it are major concerns that I’ve wanted to write about for years. They dramatically bring home just how human scientists really are, with all of their faults and frailties.

“Xin Sun seemed to know remarkably little about how to do experiments. If I were to think of someone in the lab who might be a Chinese spy, it would be him. Not Mei Li.”
Geoffrey M. Cooper, Forever

“you think it will take to do all that?” She gave me a wink. “It is a lot of work. But here in this lab? Everything can be done very fast. That’s why working with Bo Ma is such a great opportunity. He has all the latest equipment, and his collaborators know all the most current techniques. Not to mention that he has lots and lots of money from grants and foundations. And he will happily spend it to understand life span. He’ll be excited when I show him these results.” She laughed. “We can do anything here!” 3 I met Karen for dinner at Bar Boulud, the French bistro at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. Neither Karen nor I were normally drawn to celebrity chef restaurants, preferring local places like Carmella’s—Karen’s favorite in the North End—a place that”
