    AbstractWhen it comes to medical research, incentives align to promote "publish or perish." This results in quantity over quality. A solution is to change the goal of medical scientist and clinician training from bolstering a curriculum vitae to mastering scientific research methods. In addition, the metric for scholarly authorship should be quality, for which validated measurement tools exist, rather than number of publications.Copyright © 2018 Arthroscopy Association of North America.
