Here a latest example:
The Case of the Amazing Gay-Marriage Data: How a Graduate Student Reluctantly Uncovered a Huge Scientific Fraud

http://nymag.com/scienceofus/2015/05/how-a-grad-student-uncovered-a-huge-fraud.html

btw, I am not surprised. when personal gains,whether fame or money, are involved , these things will proliferate.

What is disappointing for me is that scientific fraud/misconduct seems to be so prevalent in the US when I expect it to be more common in places like china as per the discussion of chinese stock mkt lack of transparency.

I recently finished Bad Pharma by Ben Goldacre, a British physician, academic and science writer. It was hard going for me,not because of the difficulty of the content, far from it , I learned a lot about the world of academic and scientific publication for a layman, but because it is so damned depressing.
