Another one of those amazing @ElsevierConnect #papermill publications where 6 authors were added to the paper! Are the 2 'remaining' authors the ones that got paid by these 6 for becoming an author? #papermill #fraud
Apr 24
6 authors added to the paper.... Yeah, there are only 7 authors in total so all but 1 are 'new authors'. Paper mill bought crap it is! #papermill #fraud ! There are thousands of such papers and hardly any of these papers get retracted. Time to wake up! @ElsevierConnect

Surprised to discover that Thermo Fisher appears to show a fake western blot for the validation of one of their p53 antibodies. I've added a diagram to show the very similar bands. This does not appear to be one of the "published figures", but their own internal data.

Another retraction for professional #papermill #fraud Talha Bin Emran! Notice this time also Raffaele Capasso! This wannabe has put his name on many paper mill publications! But I doubt his university @UninaIT will care! These frauds continue to publish junk!
Mar 26
Talha Bin Emran is a corrupt editor and #papermill #fraud. He has published nothing but junk & he provides fake reviews for his #papermill network. Will @BrownUniversity or @rwsobol act or ignore? This @ElsevierConnect journal is full with paper mill junk

From our webinar:
▫️Policies ≠ operational
▫️Checks too late
▫️Workflows inconsistent
Shift: reactive → proactive screening at submission

I continue slowly working through one volume of AJCR (w/an Associate Editor-in-Chief in Wafik S. El-Deiry, MD, PhD). So much crap.
This one paper was so bad that I gave up before finishing (I’m only flagging images identified by @ImageTwinAI for reasons).

"For sale: scientific reputation": Publishers seek means to detect paper mills and "risk holding up the conveyor belt of science."

Our first Imagetwin webinar on research integrity is now available to watch.🎙️💚
Key takeaway:
Manual checks don’t scale as submission volumes grow. Editorial workflows need automated screening and structured integrity checks.
