By Leonid Schneider, on research integrity, biomedical ethics and academic publishing
Maarten van Kampen’s second attempt at hounding of Nobel papers.
Schneider Shorts 25.08.2023 – a Nobelist opens an anti-aging business, a journal remains evil under new leadership, with retractions for former ERC president, an Oz bully and other fraudsters, embarrassing corrections or inactions elsewhere, frontiers in communism, and finally, a victim of clinical abuse releases documentary.
Welcome to the the William Harvey Research Institute in London. Meet two proteges of its founder, the late Nobelist Sir John Vane: Chris Thiemermann and Mauro Perretti. Then meet their own rotten mentees, especially Salvatore Cuzzocrea and Jesmond Dalli.
Schneider Shorts 30.06.2023 – Nobelists in need of defence, superconductive fraud vidicated, new fraudsters at MD Anderson in Texas discovered, Alzheimer fraudster gets his own center, an American in Italian fraud gang, with other fraudsters in Italy and their retractions, an MDPI’s expert, and finally, with India’s greatest scholar and his manpower.
“Yup we are being hounded.” – Thomas Südhof
Schneider Shorts 3.03.2023 – Lab leak theory of COVID-19 escapes peer review, sadist professor in Germany (almost) exposed, various takes on the usefulness of academic friendship, with a stem cell breakthrough, Lancet and COPE bashed, and finally, why single men smell so nice.
Svante Pääbo, the father of paleogenomics, went funny before his Nobel Prize.
Schneider Shorts 9.09.2022 – a Nobel man retracts four papers, professor XYZ retracts one, UCL being their usual greedy crooked racist self, with a cancer cure from Karolinska, an anti-aging solution from Brazil, the dangers of blue screens, a Romanian genius in England, and a dirty old man in Marseille cornered.
Smut Clyde tells you about some abysmally bad scamferences and the kind of scholars frequenting them, and I explain why Nobel Prize winner Harald zur Hausen is one of them.
How the Nobel Prize winner Sir Martin Evans and the lying crook Ajan Reginald almost succeeded, were it not for Patricia Murray.
