The Chronicle: Journal Editor Quits Over Conflict of Interest

Nemeroff has stepped down - but he hasn't resigned from the University. As long has he mixes industry and government money - especially federally-funded resources like the Yerkes National Primate Research Center, he will have an insurmoutable conflict of interest.

Like what this guy needs is a checklist to remind him to be ethical?

1. Take big money from industry
2. Take University salary
3. Take federal grant dollars
4. Do whatever I want
5. Use ghostwriter to compose results
6. Submit to journal where I am editor-in-chief to avoid any hassels
7. Go on safari

p.s.
8. Be an ethical and decent human being
9. Stop torturing primates

BAH!
