The project "Summa cum fraude – Scientific Misconduct and the Attempt of a Counterattack" is intended to provide an active tool for self-regulation in science in order to engage the strongly expanding phenomenon of scientific misconduct. Basically, the project entails a targeted search of publications in scientific journals (here: physics, chemistry and material science) in order to find studies with fabricated or false data. After reporting these cases to the editors of the concerned journals the whole process of investigation is documented. Primarily, the project therefore aims to eliminate such publications that are in strong conflict with the standards of good scientific practice in order to avoid that fake science contributes to the current knowledge. Based on these investigations, new and especially uniform and standardized concepts to cope with scientific misconduct are discussed with representatives from several publishers and libraries, and ombudspeople (e.g. at a concluding workshop). The knowledge of the fundamental mechanisms of scientific misconduct and the analysis of typical systematics (i.e. topic of the journal, open access journal, publisher, impact factor, type of misconduct, repeated misconduct, statement by the authors, duration of the investigation by the journal, final decision by the editor) may provide possible solutions to prevent scientific misconduct or to reduce its current extent.

“总结和欺诈——科学不端行为和反击的尝试”项目旨在为科学界的自我监管提供一个积极的工具，以应对不断扩大的科学不端行为现象。因此，该项目的主要目标是在科学期刊（此处：物理、化学和材料科学）上发表论文，以查找伪造或虚假数据的研究。到消除与良好科学实践标准强烈冲突的出版物，以避免虚假科学对当前知识的贡献。根据这些调查，与来自各领域的代表讨论了应对科学不端行为的新的、特别统一和标准化的概念。一些出版商和图书馆以及监察员（例如在结束的研讨会上）了解科学不端行为的基本机制和典型系统学的分析（即期刊主题、开放获取期刊、出版商、影响因子、不端行为类型，屡次不当行为、声明作者的决定、期刊调查的持续时间、编辑的最终决定）可能会提供可能的解决方案，以防止科学不当行为或减少其当前的程度。
