Conflict of interest occurs when an employee has interests that are at odds to each other, which isn't shown at the excerpt given in the exercise. Fabrication is the creation of intellectual property, also not shown in the exercise, and falsification is the creation of a scientific hypothesis that cannot be verified by lack of practical evidence, which is not the case described as well.
