Creationism, plagiarism and peer-review

Creationism, plagiarism and peer-review February 13, 2008

The recent paper in Proteomics, “Mitochondria, the missing link between body and soul: Proteomic prospective evidence“, is a heady mix of duff science caused by an excess of religious zeal, good old fashioned theft, and laughably bad peer review. As a result, it’s rippling around the blogosphere. Most recently, the Guardian has picked up on it – apparently the paper has been retracted and there’s to be a press release explaining what went wrong. That should be interesting!
