Intellectual Property:Unwanted Inclusion as Co-Author of Paper?=20

Reader Question:=A0

Because of some of our recent scientific papers, we have achieved a bit of =
prominence as "up and comers" in our field. At the institute lunch table, I=
 have freely shared ideas and thoughts with a colleague whose lab is down t=
he hall. But they were just collegial, rambling discussions, nothing more. =
Now, he has published a paper in a major journal and listed me as a co-auth=
or. This is without my permission and without there having been any real in=
put or review from me. I do not want my widespread colleagues to feel I hav=
e endorsed this chap's research -- let alone contributed to it. He claims h=
e was just being gracious by including our name, but we feel he might be "t=
rying to ride on our coattails". At this point, how can I set the record st=
raight, and also prevent him from doing this again?=20

                 =20
Expert Comments:=A0

As you already realize, your colleague had no right to use your name on his=
 paper without your permission. It was possibly a bad move legally, and was=
 certainly one ethically.  As a professional and a scholar, your name is mo=
re than just its letters; it communicates to the reader your expertise, kno=
wledge, and reputation.  =20


 As such, you may have "publicity rights" in it.  These vary from state to =
state, but typically they (more)

No. 16, February 15-19, 2010

Reader Question:=A0

I'm one of the few bachelor PIs left on in our institute.   Recently an att=
ractive postdoc strongly hinted she was socially "available" for me.  I do =
not wish to pursue the matter.  But in case she proves vindictive, or imagi=
