Preprints are bad because we need peer review to ensure quality and integrity of the scientific record. 🤥😜

The TLDR: Impact Inflation tells you when a journal is "punching above their weight", or have an "inflated value" in terms of IF. Golf rules, lower is better. IF is a flawed metric. Impact Inflation normalizes the IF so you can tell what it means. #SciPub #ScientificPublishing

That's #FrontiersMedia ladies and gents. The strain on scientific publishing is motivated by journal groups wanting to streamline the publishing of papers. Gold OA ties papers published to revenue. The more you can pump out, regardless of quality, the better. #ResearchIntegrity #SciPub

Wow, that ain't great. #ResearchIntegrity concerns in ThermoFisher's validations of its own antibodies... Fraud by specific labs? That affects the lab, and to variable extents from "meh" to "eurgh", the field the lab published in. Fraud by companies selling reagents? #SciPub #FoSci

Commented on the spike in retractions lately. There's no question we can't just let people get away with fraud. But to deal with the root problems, we need to address the root causes. #SciPub Strain: direct.mit.edu/qss/article/... Drain: metaror.org/article/the-... PISS: arxiv.org/abs/2601.07563

Just a reminder, we not only wrote about the profiteering nature of the Springer-Nature Discover journal series, but we made a "guess the publisher" game! hal.science/hal-05113253 Game by @[email protected] pagoba.shinyapps.io/publi_guess/ #OpenAccess #AcademicSky #FoSci #MDPI #SciPub

Another great article by @[email protected] on the current #SciencePublishing system. Don't publish with for-profit publishers like Elsevier, Springer Nature, et al. It's really simple. There are so many cool #PlantScience society journals. #SciPub See also: bsky.app/profile/soms...

Mittelautorschaften auf wissenschaftlichen Veröffentlichungen gelten als zweitklassig. Wer jedoch keine hat, kann schnell als nicht teamfähig oder uninterssant für Kooperationen gelten … Heute in unserer "Freitags-Kolumne": https://www.laborjournal.de/editorials/3422.php #scipub #AcademicChatter

Well done Swissuniversities! @[email protected] et al. once again leading the charge (see previous special issue announcement). Funders and institutes hold the cards. If they don't pay the profiteers, we researchers will just adapt. We don't need Nature. Nature needs us. #SciPub #ResearchIntegrity

Dass Journal-Reviewer die Begutachtung von eingereichten Manuskripten auch mal für unlautere Zwecke missbrauchen, ist bekannt. In unserer "Freitag-Kolumne" berichtet eine Forscherin von gleich drei Beispielen, die ihr selbst widerfahren waren 👉 https://www.laborjournal.de/editorials/3377.php #PeerReview #scipub
