Is science quite as scientific as it's supposed to be? ITV Science Correspondent Alok Jha takes a look at how science research is really carried out, to find out if it is really as rigorous as scientists would like us to think. In the second and concluding part of this series, Alok looks at the practices and cultures undermining the integrity of scientific research. Are scientists being pushed into shortcuts and unethical behaviour by the competitiveness of their field? Producer: Faizal Farook.
