But the discoveries and published papers rarely benefit the people who enable this research by donating their blood and other tissue samples. As Michael Nielsen discusses in his recent book Reinventing Discovery, the “publish or perish” mentality that dominates the field means that many substandard or incomplete papers are published, while those people who are supposed to benefit from the research are often little more than an afterthought.
但这些发现和发表的论文并没有给贡献血液和其他组织样本从而让研究得以进行的人带来好处。迈克尔·尼尔森（Michael Nielsen）在其新书《重新发明发现》（Reinventing Discovery）中指出，“要么发表，要么沉沦”（publish or perish）心态主导研究领域意味着许多次等或不完备的论文被发表出来，而本应从研究中获益的人群并没有得到优先考虑。
