Should Unethical Research Be Published?

Data obtained from such cruel and inhumane experiments should virtually never be published. If data from unethical experiments can be replaced by data from ethically sound research and achieve the same ends, then such must be done.

Why would research be considered unethical?

Research may still be considered unethical even if the researcher's actions do not result in clear evidence of harm or there did not appear to be any intentional wrongdoing.

Should ethical research be retracted?

Both papers that are the result of misconduct and seriously unethical research should be retracted and only their abstracts left online, always clearly marked as 'retracted'. Retraction notices should be informative and easily accessible.
