@markhooper.bsky.socialIf I were on the selection committee for an academic position, I would ask, "Tell me about an interesting paper that you've read lately." Honestly, this would be more instructive and revealing than the question, "Tell me about an interesting paper you've written."

@gierschner.bsky.socialanother retracted paper is cited in an ACS journal, although the phrase "retracted in 2025" even appears in the main text...
doi.org/10.1021/acs....
And nobody notices this at ACS, which advertises itself with "most trusted"?
Please @pubs.acs.org , take action!
When your synthesis models disagree, that's not noise—it's signal. We show you where consensus forms and where uncertainty lives. Transparency over smoothing. 🔍

That phantom DOI a reviewer caught? We cross-check every citation against CrossRef and flag orphans before submission. Rigor happens in the details. 🔍

@gierschner.bsky.socialI appreciate the efforts, but consider that in the meantime this review is out there, and is "highly recommended" by AI tools👇
although we cannot trust any graph, table or word...
Should I tell my students "Please wait at least 2 years, before you trust RSC reviews" ?

@rn4cb.bsky.socialWilliam Chi published a preprint outlining a method to calculate the economic cost of irreproducible research. In a drug-development scenario, unreliable research can lead to 10-77% (!!) of funds being wasted.

@editoratlarge.bsky.socialEditor Cat-Zhang faces yet another #retraction of a paper whose authors proclaim that since it originally passed peer review, it means it's okay and not their fault at the same time #ScientificPublishing #ResearchIntegrity
@editoratlarge.bsky.socialWe will only see more of those.
And many authors will disagree with these retractions. But you can also look at the problem like this:
pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...
And that looks rather different #ScientificPublishing #ResearchIntegrity
