Description :
The goal of research is to produce knowledge, and the aim of producing knowledge is to
improve human situation while doing research using unethical or inappropriate means le

corruption, which is against scientific knowledge production. No doubt, there is plagiarism in the
scientific community although it is against basic scientific principles. Plagiarism is useless, meaningless,
and unethical and thus forbidd
en. One of the pathological components in the relationships between
people is the legal culture in society. Unethical issues are quickly increasing in the realm of science. In
the future, such issues in gathering data, cooperation between scientists and in
publications will most
probably get more complicated and more difficult to deal with. More than ever before, postgraduate
medical students should know about methods, technologies and concepts of science.
