have formal mechanisms for dealing with accusations of dishonesty made against
;
their scientists. The Association of American Medical Colleges has issued a
;
policy statement, "The maintenance of high ethical standards in the conduct of
;
research," to encourage its member schools to develop such procedures. The AAMC
;
policy offers guidelines for protecting the confidentiality of the accused and
;
accusers, establishing a two-tiered system of departmental and outside
;
investigation, insuring fair procedures, and determining what actions should be
;
taken once the allegations are proved or disproved. Policies are also suggested
;
to promote high ethical standards in all research.
