Every American should be ashamed of who we are and what we have become as a nation today. We have a long history of military misadventures and even crimes but the attacks we have been conducting on Venezuela are among the most wanton, egregious and least defensible acts we’ve ever conducted.

Can the editor of Science Signaling explain why it took 11 months to retract a paper by the Lesné group after being requested to do so by the authors' institutional research integrity officer, who confirmed published figure did not represent research record. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

On behalf of Chris Graf: A.

Russia is a terrorist state and anyone who supports this or praises Putin is reprehensible This is what Ukrainians have to go through every single damn day

Gigantic epidemiology population trial starts with a drug nobody knows what its long term effect is.

1994-2001: US disarms Ukraine of nuclear warheads & intercontinental ballistic missiles After 9/11: Ukraine sends over 5,000 troops to a "war on another continent" to help the US. 18 die. 2014: Russia invades Ukraine. 2025: US - "It's not our war. It's a war on another continent."

WHO doesn't apply any standards even to biomedicine. They encourage fraud, so why shouldn't homeopathy, TCM and Ayurveda work also? forbetterscience.com/2018/10/11/w...

The U.S. Department of Justice has reached a $15 million NIH grant fraud settlement with Dana-Farber Cancer Center. This resolves a False Claims Act qui tam complaint that I filed on behalf of @sholtodavid.bsky.social in April 2024, with Gregg Shapiro as my co-counsel.

German professor gets told once again he's a moron, in a retraction notice

This should apply to many other journals/publishers

This article co-authored by German soil science superstar Rinklebe was just retracted. The editors somehow didn't believe 6410 g/kg was a reliable datapoint: "...in Table S1 the total potassium content (TK) = 6410 g ± 13.2 g kg-1, meaning that one kg of soil contained about seven kg of potassium."

Third retraction for #papermill #fraud Jörg Rinklebe from @uni-wuppertal.bsky.social! This time he managed to defy the laws of physics and measure 6.4 kg of K in 1 kg of soil! Of course the whole paper was fake! Will @uni-wuppertal.bsky.social finally act? doi.org/10.1016/j.sc...

When BMC published this the first days of 2025 we should have known how the year will turn out: Namini et al. 2025 (DOI: 10.1186/s12967-024-06048-z) in 'Journal of Translational Medicine'. This is one of 120 papers from this journal that I flagged in the last 4 weeks... pubpeer.com/publications...

Perhaps it’s not bizarre when there is so much corruption in science, helping with the collapse in trust 🔽

Dette stinker fælt av korrupsjon.

This AI generated piece of crap published only roughly 3 weeks ago has already been retracted! As long as enough media pays attention to it, retractions can go fast.... Go figure! A lot still to be retracted by @springernature.com, for sure in Scientific Reports doi.org/10.1038/s415...

A major scandal is unfolding in #Norway. The government was advised to purchase protective #masks for 100 million NOK from the Norwegian company #Watchbird. They were intended for protection against tear gas and similar threats for the #Ukrainian military. www.vg.no/nyheter/i/Ok...

Sterk sak fra VG. 3000 kr for buff som funker dårligere enn munnbind og personen i Forsvaret som anbefalte regjeringen å kjøpe dette er kompis med han som driver firmaet.

Another retraction for #papermill #fraud Arivalagan Pugazhendi! This fraud has published nothing but paper mill crap! Finally some journals are retracting his crap. He is on his way to the @retractionwatch.com leaderboard!

On that day, a rump Nazi government led by Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz was holed up in a naval academy gym on the Baltic coast, the Soviet flag had been raised over the Reichstag, Hitler had been dead for a week, and German forces controlled only the tiniest bit of ... Germany.

Retraction nr 18 for the #fraud Pau Loke Show. Amazingly The university of Nottingham Malaysia offered him a full time full professorship contract. Why? Because they don't care! Fraud pays off, yet again! When will this stop? Retraction notice is clear: again manipulation of the review process!

Potentially major news! This retraction is the first of most likely many in the #papermill journal Environmental Pollution from @elsevierconnect.bsky.social. It was under the control of corrupt EIC J. Rinklebe from @uni-wuppertal.bsky.social

Curious how this post omits the words “Russia” and “Putin.”

Thanks Harvard, for taking a stand. Perhaps we should all stand together….

The front page of Oncotarget looks pretty @pubpeer.com-heavy. Those cyan/greenish banners are the PubPeer plug-in (browser extension) at work, showing which papers have earned a comment or concern. Here is it mostly plagiarism and image duplications.

Our paper on 🧻fake patents🧻 has been published in the International Journal for Educational Integrity! 🥳 I hope you give it a read. rdcu.be/eiAT7 #PaperMills #AcademicIntegrity #ResearchIntegrity #Fraud

It took @springernature.com five years to retract a paper containing blatantly fabricated data. It was listed "the best of Cancer Gene Therapy 2017-2018". It has been cited 61 times. @natureportfolio.nature.com #China #Fraud #Science #Glioma #Cancer pubpeer.com/publications...

Larry the Cat is a hero. @reeserichardson.bsky.social is here too.

The newest bullshit from the Scienceguardians is out👇Notice how they mix up perpetrator 1 with 2. They had to say perpetrator 1 here not 2. I am having a harder time each time to read their BS. I won't bother to read it anymore, waste of time. @thatsregrettab1.bsky.social x.com/SciGuardians...

ScienceGuardians, where disgruntled authors complain about PubPeer A new BSky account that promises some big reveals about PubPeer users, but never delivers. Instead, it spews false accusations and conspiracy theories. Read my blog post: scienceintegritydigest.com/2025/04/18/s...

On Twitter/X, @SciGuardians, ScienceGuardians, is promising to 'uncover' some big conspiracy of fraudulent @pubpeer.com users. But in reality, the account appears to be run by a disgruntled scientist with dozens of problematic papers. 🧵

South #Korea has a huge problem with falsification of #biomedical data. Thinking about the wasted funds and misinformation leading to dead ends and less progress and development: Why this lack of responsiblity from universities, funding agency and government?

Cancer researcher Dr. Jasti Rao has entered the @retractionwatch.com Leaderboard. I have reported over 100 papers to the institutions, and posted them on @pubpeer.com using my pseudonym Lotus Azoricus. HT: SpottingTheSpot on X. retractionwatch.com/the-retracti...

And at @forbetterscience.bsky.social , @smutclyde.bsky.social wrote “another lengthy foray into the demi-monde of duplicated and manipulated images” about the many problematic papers from Dr. Rao’s labs. And some extortion tape transcripts as well! forbetterscience.com/2019/10/21/n...

💩-ton of papers implicated in NNSF of China's April misconduct announcement. Many have been retracted. Of the 27 papers not yet retracted, @weldeiry.bsky.social is journal Editor-in-Chief or Associate Editor-in-Chief on 8 ( or~30%). Announcement here: www.nsfc.gov.cn/publish/port...

Good news: we have received a full APC waiver!

Why you can't trust @elsevierconnect.bsky.social , well because they don't kick out corrupt editors! EIC Cecilia Maria Villas Bôas de Almeida already has 1 retraction for her fraud, but a second paper changed 'editor' all of a sudden, but here also a conflict of interest! pubpeer.com/publications...

Fraudulent scientists are attempting to deflect attention from their misconduct by turning the narrative against whistleblowers. @thatsregrettab1.bsky.social @elisabethbik.bsky.social @smutclyde.bsky.social @forbetterscience.bsky.social x.com/SciGuardians... #ScienceGuardians #fraud

Our goal is to publish this in Bioengineered to inform their readers. However, we are not willing to pay the APC of over $3000 and asked for a waiver. @tandfresearch.bsky.social has offered us a 50% discount but that's not good enough. They promised to respond within 3 days, 10 days ago....
