I have sought retroactive approval from my IRB for my PubPeer experiment on human subjects. I should hear back shortly, although one member is notoriously late.

Opinions please? There's a duplicated Ă-actin band (green). The author replies, "Because Smad3 is already the right loading control for p-Smad3, thus the last beta-actin is not necessary and we will contact the journal for removal." Is this legit? đ https://t.co/Vqe4R9cQ7n

@raoult_didier You forgot to mention that you are #14 on the @RetractionWatch leaderboard! It appears that you are quickly losing the trust that scientists once had in you.

Lol imagine writing a paper to criticise something like PubPeer, knowing it will be scrutinised closely because of that, and not even checking if the ChatGPT hallucinated references exist...
It's perhaps a little ironic that this recent (or should that be future, as it is being published in 2026?) is getting some remarks on #PubPeer. The article is available here: https://t.co/T6CgsRnv5D You can see the PuPeer comments here: https://t.co/8QT6eiVMH9, but I'll pick

I haven't focused on that journal, mostly because there were so many PubPeer posts that it seemed that others were doing a terrific job at uncovering widespread problems. Congratulations to all who helped
Science of The Total Environment has been officially removed from the Web of Science. Once a Top-tier journal, it was placed âOn Holdâ in Oct 2024 after investigations revealed peer-review manipulation, fake reviewer identities, and conflict-of-interest. #ResearchIntegrity

The disgruntled authors who have united as @ScienceGuardians are going to reveal the 'central fraudulent figure who has been serving as the public face of this smearing network and its malicious operation'. Apparently, it's me! Sorry, fellow sleuths. Woohoo! đđ„łđ„

Nice to be acknowledged. "The retraction has been agreed following an investigation of the concerns raised by Penicillium citreoviride (@ImageTwinAI) and Actinopolyspora biskrensis (me) on PubPeer, which identified concerns regarding Figures 2 and 3." https://t.co/HacA7pOwva

"The FDA's FAERS system is useful for identifying potential adverse events associated with drugs. However, its data is often exploited to produce articles reporting spurious drug risks. COSIG's entry on formulaic research now covers low-quality pharmacovigilance studies!" RR
