To address scientific misconduct China has established a governance mechanism based on legislation, normative documents and departmental rules. However, the current governance mechanism of scientific research misconduct still has problems in the whole cycle (before, during and after the event), which are specifically reflected in scientific research data management, investigation and processing modes, disciplinary measures, etc. This paper combs the beneficial experience of foreign countries in these respects, analyzes the causes of China's scientific research misconduct and the problems in the governance mechanism, provides a reference for adjusting China's scientific research misconduct governance mechanism, and points out that we should focus on establishing a diversified scientific research evaluation mechanism, improving scientific research data management mechanism, establishing an independent regulatory department to deal with scientific research misconduct, and refining the punishment for scientific research misconduct.
