Subject: [Announcement] Protest against Nature (the magazine) calls for co-signer

Dear PKU Bioers,

As you might have known, an article was published in Nature a few days ago, titled “Why great Olympic feats raise suspicions”. It is "completely groundless, full of political bias, and extremely disturbing".

There has been heated discussion on this issue among Chinese scholar/professional communities. One of our PKU Bioers, Liming Wang (Bio01'; now at UC Berkeley) has initiated a formal protest against Nature. While he is composing a final letter, a first draft is available here on mitbbs:

As this announcement is writing, we "have collected 117 co-signers from 9 countries, including students, postdocs, professors from academia as well as engineers and lawyers from industry, and more is coming". If you are interested in joining this protest, please send your name / title / affiliation / email to Liming Wang:

[email protected]

Below is some excerpt from his final draft proposal:

======

Nature is considered one of the most prestigious scientific journals in the world; numerous scientists, including many of the protestors, chose Nature to publish their best work. Indeed, many of the protestors have co-authored papers published in Nature. However, Mr. Callaway’s article, scientifically misleading and full of racial and political bias, was more suitable for tabloids. It has tainted Nature’s reputation in the scientific community, and among the general audience.

We urge Nature to retract this article and publicly apologize to Ye and all athletes in the first time. Until then, we will not:

1> submit papers to Nature;

2> review papers for Nature;

3> advertise in Nature for job openings and products;

4> purchase services and products advertised in Nature;

5> subscribe to Nature for individual or lab uses

======
