    Dear All, <br>
    <br>
    I agree with what has been written. What is published is published.
    <br>
    <br>
    However, ever sent in a project proposal which was rejected, and
    later finding it recycled? Borrowing ideas and taking them on is a
    nasty phenomenon that is not new, cannot be easily stopped, but
    happens far too often. There is a great deal of short term memory
    about and the difference between heavily inspired and downright
    plagiarism is a thin one. A post doc of mine pointed out a case of
    plagiarism recently and was told by the inspired persons that they
    had changed the statistical measure, so the reuse of the concept did
    not need acknowledgement. Does it cost so much to give a reference?<br>
    <br>
    We had a bad case of plagiarism in our university recently, and no
    action was taken, so as to avoid a scandal. Same has happened
    elsewhere in France. We preach one thing to students, and then let
    real academic plagiarism go unchallenged. This is not good.<br>
    <br>
    Best<br>
    <br>

      <br>
      The question really does concern what is and what is not public,
      as Mike said earlier.<br>
      Independently of who has done the research, or who has paid for
      it, if the work has been published (in the widest sense, including
      conference presentations, working papers, e-prints as well as
      paper-print journals and books) then anyone can do what they want
      with it... provided that they cite the source.<br>
      <br>
      If the work has *not* been published, but has been made available
      in confidence (to supervisors, journal editors, peer reviewers,
      etc) and is then published - presumably without the permission of
      nor reference to the original author - then that would almost
      certainly be illegitimate. One exception would be if the research
      is part of a larger project in which work is expected to be shared
      between participants in that project.<br>
      <br>
      Unfortunately plagiarism happens, and the victims are usually
      young/beginning researchers who do not yet have a network of
      colleagues to defend their interests. I sincerely hope your
      question was just theoretical.<br>
      <br>
      best,<br>

                          <div> IN my opinion, yes. If you make
                            something public (publishing) you cannot
                            pick & choose who will use that idea or
                            those data. Similarly you cannot have back a
