The headline invites the interpretation that 20% of chemists admit to falsification to satisfy a reviewer. That is not what the C&EN article states, nor the conclusion from the original source. Since many will only read the headline, I find it misleading.

This headline is misleading and sows doubt in the integrity scientists.

Grace developed a virtual screening approach focused on cavities identified in the (NPSL2) RNA structure. She then validated screening "hits" experimentally.
Importantly, this approach is broadly applicable to any RNA with a known 3D structure.

Last week's EO is in clear violation of federal law that gives Institute Directors e.g., the Director of NINDS or NIGMS etc, the final decision making authority in issuing grants of more than $50,000. The Institute Directors know this.
