Romanian scientists fight plagiarism

摘要

Plagiarism scandals have shaken Romania this year. Former research minister loan Mang~1 and current Prime Minister Victor Ponta~2 have both been implicated, and leaders at a large medical university in Targu-Mures face similar accusations -although the government seems to have ignored those charges. Such scandals have convinced some Romanian scientists that they need to fight back against a culture of plagiarism that they see as ingrained in the university system.
