Have you experienced suppression of research findings?

The article titled Health researchers report funder pressure to suppress results from the August 18, 2021 issue of Nature, sparked the interest of the ISEE Ethics and Philosophy Committee; therefore, they are planning to submit a symposium for the ISEE 2022 conference on the topic of research suppression.

In this article Dr. Sam McCrabb and her co-authors found that respondents were more likely to report pressure from government department funders seeking to influence research outcomes than from industry, charity, or public research funding agencies.

If you or someone you know experienced suppression of research findings or you would like to join the ISEE Ethics and Philosophy Committee sponsored session during the ISEE 2022 conference, please contact the Committee Chair, Ruth A. Etzel, MD., Ph.D.
