The ethical scientist: An old‐fashioned view

My personal view of ethical behavior as a scientific researcher in an academic environment is presented. I discuss the behavior of a graduate student, a postdoctoral, and a professor. Ethical behavior in teaching, choosing a research project, publishing papers, and obtaining a job is discussed. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Biopolymers 103: 424–431, 2015.
