This progress depends on the honest and ethical pursuit of scientific research, truthful representation of findings, and a welcoming community in which all scientists are able to contribute fully. The entire scientific endeavor is put at risk by misconduct, including fabrication, falsification, plagiarism, unethical treatment of animals or human subjects, sexual and gender harassment, and other harassing or harmful behaviors that are contrary to a healthy scientific enterprise.
