Colloquium on scientific authorship: rights and responsibilities.

The Colloquium on Scientific Authorship was held at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) at a time of extraordinary scrutiny by the public of the ethics of scientists, as represented by intense interest of the press and the Congress of the United States. Indeed, several regulations dealing with scientific misconduct have been proposed during the last year in the Federal Register, and new legislation has been proposed in the Congress. As a result of these concerns, conferences have been organized by the Institute of Medicine, the American Association for the Advancement of Science/American Bar Association, the Council of Biology Editors, and other groups. The colloquium at NIH, which was held May 31, 1988, and sponsored by the Intramural Scientists, focused on publication practices, especially multiple authorship, as contributing to perceived difficulties. The participants suggested various changes in conventions related to authorship that might help prevent future problems.

The National Institutes of Health in its centennial year.

The laboratory of which the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is a lineal descendant was founded in 1887. During discussions of our plans for a year-long centennial observance with members of our House and Senate appropriations subcommittees, congressional members urged us to set two specific objectives: making NIH better known to the American people, and presenting the attractions of the many roles in health-related research to young people who have not yet formulated career plans. When I was invited to prepare an article for Science dealing with my personal experiences as director of NIH since April 1982, it seemed an opportunity to address the same objectives for the scientific community, for in my view there is much misinformation and far too much pessimism throughout the country about the state of biomedical research and its support.
