Dear colleagues, Two more pennies/euro cents on plagiarism.
I am at the beginning of my career and have up to now published four papers in peer-reviewed journals. For each of these papers, I have made a list of the colleagues I quoted the work from (based on the list of cited references) and have sent them a pdf of the final paper by e-mail. I think this practice prevents me from plagiarism, since I know that the quoted scientists will read the paper and look carefully for reference to their work. I have had positive feedback on this practice and I guess it is a good opportunity to advertise my work and build a network. Any thoughts about it? Cheers, Christophe. ##### Christophe Coudun, PhD Centre for Terrestrial Carbon Dynamics (CTCD) Forest Research, Alice Holt Lodge Farnham, Surrey GU10 4LH United Kingdom tel. +44 (0)1420 526289 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ctcd.nerc.ac.uk +++++ The Forestry Commission's computer systems may be monitored and communications carried out on them recorded, to secure the effective operation of the system and for other lawful purposes. +++++ The original of this email was scanned for viruses by the Government Secure Intranet (GSi) virus scanning service supplied exclusively by Cable & Wireless in partnership with MessageLabs.
