A scientist suggests that others have committed wrongs with some of his research. Martin Short, who is CAM Assistant Adjunct Professor at the UCLA Mathematics Department, writes on his web site:

Works Plagiarized by Others
Unfortunately, sometimes people copy your work and claim it as their own.  Here is a collection of known papers that plagiarize from myself and my co-authors:

(Thanks to investigator Dan Meyer for indirectly bringing this to our attention.)
