By Leonid Schneider, on research integrity, biomedical ethics and academic publishing
Schneider Shorts 18.11.2022 – a Spanish university hunts “Nazis”, Indian elites flock to a scamference, publishers embracing fraud, WHO embracing papermills, the fall of COPE, with a Dutch sexual harasser, Saudi and Egyptian data forgers, other science elites in a race to the bottom, and a diet advice to eat sand.
Schneider Shorts 14.10.2022 – the mystery past of Dresden rector, a sacked dean in Czechia, a Don’t mess with Texas mega-correction in Nature, concerns expressed for Sicilian nepotist fraudsters, an indignant Weizmann scientist, scamferences legalised in Würzburg, and new fun stories of the Hindawi papermill!
Schneider Shorts 30.09.2022 – with an undesired fourth patient in NEJM, superconductive fraud in Nature, killer Lancet, heroic Wiley, dead rabbits of London, Aduhelm 2.0, micronanorobots, coffee vs death, and a toxic antivaxxer awarded by toxic elites.
Four years after Ashutosh Tiwari’s scamferences and research fraud were exposed, his impressive-sounding yet fictional “International Association of Advanced Materials”, or IAAM, still opens doors, hearts and wallets.
Schneider Shorts of 25.03.2022 – University of Louisville canonizes a fraudster, a Peruvian sexual harasser puts critic on trial, a sacked CEO with a new biotech startup, French COVID quacks being creative, some interesting corrections, and why China’s science is the best in the world.
Schneider Shorts 23 April 2021: exciting COVID-19 clinical trials, blood tests for depression, photoshopped plant science, more tea with Professor Seeberger, chocolate diets, amazing cancer cures, and an Italian mystery troll obsessed with me.
Ashutosh Tiwari’s scamference activities continue. Now the University of Magdeburg in Germany is very excited about a medal from the International Association of Advanced Materials.
The German Academy of Sciences, Leopoldina, advertises for Ashutosh Tiwari’s predatory conferences. Occasion: Academician Herbert Gleiter won an IAAM Award.
Ashutosh Tiwari and his patron Tony Turner were found guilty of research misconduct by Linköping University. Turner is to be sacked as EiC of his Elsevier journal Biosensors and Bioelectronics, a paper he tried to correct there will be retracted. Meanwhile, Tiwari and his LiU colleague Mikael Syväjärvi started a new business: they offer heart surgeries in India.
The last act of the Ashutosh Tiwari travesty at Linköping University (LiU) in Sweden took place. Tiwari, the fake professor and master of predatory conferences, tripped only over his vanity of gift co-authorship on 3 papers by his Allahabad mate Prashant Sharma, a shameless nanotechnology data faker with presently 26 retractions.
