The sad and sobering tale of how allegedly fabricated results of research
led by a Johns Hopkins University lab led to the suicide of a scientist in
Taiwan,and the dismissal of the man who blew the whistle, are the focus of a
feature in yesterday's Washington Post.
The story is the tale of Daniel Yuan, formerly a genetics researcher in Jeff
Boeke's lab at Hopkins. For years, Yuan suggested that data being generated
in the lab's studies of gene interactions in yeast were suspicious.
Yuan was dismissed from Hopkins in 2011, and last summer one of the members
of the research team, Yu-yi Lin, was found dead in his new lab in Taiwan of
an apparent suicide.
Lin was an author of a paper published in Nature last year that now,
according to the Washington Post, may soon be corrected by the journal. At
age 38, Lin left behind a wife and three daughters.
The article suggests that Yuan was fired because of his concerns that the
data that was used to write the Nature paper and others did not support the
conclusions reported. Yuan also reached out to the editors at Nature,
warning the journal of the weakness of the data behind the paper, saying
that its results were overstated and that some of the analyses outlined in
the paper may not have been conducted at all.
After Lin was found dead, Yuan received an e-mail "essentially blaming him
for driving Lin to suicide," the Post reports.
The Post feature also suggests that the saga of Yuan and Lin are part of a
larger trend of falsified research and unfounded research conclusions being
published because of the immense pressure caused by an increasing number of
scientists who are racing to win grants in an environment of diminishing
funding.

Yuan is simply attacking the first fig of Lin et al Nature paper. And the
paper is really focused on AMPK and its acetylation regulation.
Yuan and Washington Post also admitted "he is questioning the first part.
and even if the first part is wrong, the second part of the paper can still
be right".
Lin should simply leave the genomics and statistics out of this paper.
What a pity.

Leaving this paper aside, hypothetically if an author "knowingly" put some
shaky data in one part of the paper, as a reader, do you trust the paper as
a whole?

It seems that Yuan is questioning the analysis and interpretation of data -
that's quite different from somebody forging data intentionally. It's not
uncommon that statisticians will analyze the same data differently. This
report only tells Yuan's side of the story.
With that said, it does smell bad that the Boeke group cannot produce a
rebuttal
in a timely manner.
