Schneider Shorts 29.11.2024 – an Alzheimer’s biotech in free fall, an Israeli Scientist explains the unexplainable, a German fraudster indicted, with a butterfly bully, good fellows and bad fellows, inconsistencies in PLOS One, and finally, with some hot chocolate to clean your brain.
Schneider Shorts 23.08.2024 – why an mpox drug failed, Slovak professor’s dirty secret, Italian alpha male’s second retraction, Kazakh-Hungarian collaboration spammed, with confusion about sold authorships, tricky assays, a book of curcumin, and finally, with ACS setting priorities straight.
Schneider Shorts 2.08.2024 – Two British stem cell biotechs in trouble, a baldness cure found in Pakistan, papermill clean-up in Vietnam and Thailand, a guide on finding papermill experts, Kosta’s first retraction, and finally, a Polish chemist trolls back!
Schneider Shorts 2.02.2024 – Three stories about Dana Farber (including a Nobelist!), two stories about the Lille papermille (including a game!), with an “honest” plant scientist, doctors being rewarded, amazing corrections and informative retractions, and how another Nobelist’s cell therapy business ended up unsold.
