Academic article scrapped over plagiarism
Peter Williams
In an unusual move an academic publisher has withdrawn an online article because of apparent plagiarism.
Michael J Dunn, editor-in-chief of the journal Proteomics, said the article A- Mitochondria, the Missing Link between Body and Soul: Proteomic Perspective Evidence, by Mohamad Warda and Jin Han A- published online on Wiley InterScience had been retracted and would not appear in print.
"The article has been retracted because it contains apparently plagiarised passages from several previously published articles," said Dunn.
Ian Russell, chief executive of the Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers, told IWR: "Accusations of plagiarism in academia are pretty rare. Academics are about as honest as they come, although clearly plagiarism does happen even among academics."
