北京清华大学医学院院长助理刘辉在提交了一份履历之后获得了该职务，履历中
列了一篇”H. Liu”发表在《普通病毒学杂志》上的论文。上个月，在校方获悉该
论文是由纽约赛奈山医学院的研究人员刘宏所写之后，他丢了工作。
校方是在去年十一月从方是民那里知道了这个问题的。这位住在圣地亚哥的
生物化学学者创办了一个流行的网站，张贴有关学术造假的传闻。方说，他在得

校方在调查之后将刘辉解雇。

Fantasy reference list leads to the sack
What’s in a name? Hui Liu, assistant dean of the medical school at
Tsinghua University in Beijing, got his job after submitting a resume
that cited, among other things, a paper by “H. Liu” in the Journal of
General Virology. He lost his job last month when the university
learned that the paper was written by Hong Liu, a researcher at Mount
Sinai School of Medicine in New York.
The school was told of the problem last November by Shi-min Fang,
a San Diego-based biochemist whose home page is a popular place to
post rumours of scientific fraud. Following up an anonymous tip-off,
Fang says he investigated Liu’s resume, which had been posted on
Tsinghua’s website. “I found that several papers were either
non-existent or belonged to somebody else,” Fang says.
The university’s investigation led to Hui’s dismissal.
