How Robin Ali and other London ophthalmologists make blind mice and blind children see.
Schneider Shorts 20.12.2024 – dirty old man now harmless enough to retract THAT paper, editors on a stealth mission, with an Italian chatbot, a Czech rector papermilling, a second investigation in Scotland, some crazy citation farming, and a sharp-eyed ophthalmology editor threatening sleuth with “repercussions”.
Schneider Shorts 22.11.2024 – a witch-hunter’s obituary, a Nobelist awarded and awarding, a dirty old man protected in Marseille, mTORman funded in Czechia, a Polish mayor arrested, a superconductor wunderkind sacked, with Austro-Romanian papermilling, and retractions for various important men.
Schneider Shorts 15.12.2023 – historical fraud deemed inconclusive, Sir Gilles transits from neuroscience to biofuels, why most Ioannidis findings are false, with media’s heroes in Italy, Belgium and UK, corrective trolling, belated retractions, money as anti-aging drug, and a true expert resolves the Vickers Curse.
Schneider Shorts 8.12.2023 – St Carlos flees to Paris again, eye-opening ophthalmology in London, with naughty editors, retractions for papermillers and for German medical elites, some brain food, and finally, a toast to science!
Schneider Shorts 6.05.2022 – how mTORman almost got a job at NYU, the 996 work morale, many great editorial decisions, rejuvenating stools, a minibrain curing autism, vitamin D against cancer, with an evil microscope maker, and a lewd Yale professor you probably don’t want to meet.
