Schneider Shorts 16.09.2024 – superconductor data released, old American alpha males in trouble, a theory why CureVac failed, a resigned Polish papermiller’s lament, with a remote-papermiller in London, France’s celebrity plagiarist, a society for fake neuroscience, MDPI in action, and finally a bad ecstasy trip in California.
“First you are starting that this issue is fraud, which is a negative attitude. I always would like to give the other part the benefit of the doubt.” – Sir Prof. dr. Harry W.M. Steinbusch
