Postdocs in trouble

Sue Halpern in today’s NY Times Book Section, reviews a new novel by Allegra Goodman called Intuition. From the excellent review, it’s a novel that I think may be very worth reading–it is about two postdocs in an NIH-funded lab and a cancer discovery that gets published in Nature and then can’t be replicated. I’m always very interested to see the issues related to the ethical conduct of research in something other than a depressing news article.
