The seven were an “odd little bro-pocket” whose “whole point is to harm other scientists,” marine ecologist John Bruno of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill—who hasn’t collaborated with Dixson and Munday—tweeted in October 2020

Tweeting that should be grounds for immediate review of anything significant they have ever published. No-one with an ounce of integrity or grey matter thinks replication studies' point is to "harm other scientists", they help other honest scientists not waste months of their time chasing fabricated red herrings that have been published unquestioned.

Also that internal misconduct review recommending no further action is a fucking joke.

However, the investigators note inadequate documentation of the research on the part of the accused, with necessary documentation only stored on one computer (which was subsequently stolen, as confirmed by the report of the theft to the police), and with a lack of back-­‐up storage at Uppsala University. However, this cannot be judged to be a sign of any research misconduct.

Yeah, sure, all the raw data happened to be on just one laptop that just happened to be stolen and that's why they can't produce the data now. That doesn't warrant further investigation at all! The 3 professors who did that review also need to get busted down to lab aides.

Universities need to clean fucking house before enough honest scientists band together to do far worse public damage to their reputation than this article hand wrings about.
