Talk at the University of Tokyo on history of Retraction Watch, our database, and current trends. Includes titles in Japanese, courtesy of Iekuni Ichikawa.
In this talk I discuss how poorly designed, analyzed, and performed toxicological studies represent a type of scientific misinformation, and drive fallacies. I also discuss the unintended consequences associated with dissemination of scientific information without proper nuance, and reinforce the idea that science is self-correcting, but only through reproducibility and scientifically-driven critique. This presentation was given at SETAC SciCon2 (Nov 2020).

Free and open access, transparent assessment and dissemination of research in a fast, shared, collaborative, participative and clear manner for all of society are some of the principles of Open Science. The recognition and adoption of open research practices is growing, including new policies that increase public access to scholarly literature and encourage openness of codes and data sharing for its reproduction. Among these initiatives which are reconfiguring scientific communication, preprints have been consolidating themselves as a promising space for free, open and transparent knowledge, streamlining the editorial process. Preprints are the first formal step in making the manuscripts publicly available before being approved by a journal.
The logics of publishing based on science guiding principles have always been in the decision-making power of the editor. From the choice of referees to the distribution of articles approved in publishing editions, the time management to publish keeping quality, periodicity and celerity regarding feedback on the output was always a challenge to editors. Moreover, this time management becomes an even greater challenge to the publishing process in Brazil, and in some parts of Latin America, whose journals’ management is mainly based on voluntary work. Given this scenario, initiatives that seek to make scientific communication faster and more transparent appear as solutions to the daily difficulties of scientific publishing, such as, for instance, preprints, continuous publication and open peer review.
In view of this new reconfiguration of the editorial process, this panel aims to discuss the panorama of fast and transparent scientific communication, seeking to share experiences that have been developed that respond to the editorial demands on the management of time and quality of the papers published in scientific journals and, particularly, to support the development of the SciELO Program preprints policy.
Syllabus
The challenges of scientific publishing and editorial ethics regarding time management and quality; initiatives for fast research communication; metrics and alternative indicators of scientific visibility; preprints and continuous communication experience in the national and international scenario; editorial dynamics of preprints and its models in the market; the demands of the continuous publication flow; open modalities of peer review: peer-review, open peer-review, and crowd-based peer review; the spaces of fast communication in scholarly social platforms.
This is an updated version of an invited talk I presented at the European Research Council-Brussels (Scientific Seminar): "Love for Science or 'academic prostitution'".
It has been updated to be presented at the The Spanish and Portuguese Relativity Meetings (EREP) on 6th July 2019.
I have included new slides and revised others.
I present a personal revision (sometimes my own vision) of some issues that I consider key for doing Science. It was at the time focused on the expected audience, mainly Scientific Officers with background in different fields of science and scholarship, but also Agency staff.
Abstract: In a recent Special issue of Nature concerning Science Metrics it was claimed that " Research reverts to a kind of 'academic prostitution' in which work is done to please editors and referees rather than to further knowledge."If this is true, funding agencies should try to avoid falling into the trap of their own system. By perpetuating this 'prostitution' they risk not funding the best research but funding the best sold research.
Given the current epoch of economical crisis, where in a quest for funds researchers are forced into competitive game of pandering to panelists, its seems a good time for deep reflection about the entire scientific system.
With this talk I aim to provoke extra critical thinking among the committees who select evaluators, and among the evaluators, who in turn require critical thinking to the candidates when selecting excellent science.
I present some initiatives (e.g. new tracers of impact for the Web era- 'altmetrics'), and on-going projects (e.g. how to move from publishing advertising to publishing knowledge), that might enable us to favor Science over marketing.
Where do you get your information fromTo answer everyday questi.docxcooperapleh
Where do you get your information from?
To answer everyday questions, you turn to information that is made readily available to you at the click of a button. In today’s fast-paced world you are often bombarded with more information than any one person can handle. With the 24-hour news cycle, the media tries to capture your attention with sensational stories and catchy headlines. However, there are many other headlines that do not seem to have the widespread marketable appeal — and therefore they are largely unnoticed by the general public.
Communication of scientific results usually takes place in a peer-reviewed journal. A peer-reviewed journal is one in which other experts in the specific field read and critique the author’s article, including their research and results, before it can be published in the journal. This process is done to maintain the standards of research. To find an example of a research article that has gone through the peer-review process, use the “Biology Newsfinder” tool in the Wiley Plus® “Science in the News” resource. Access this tool through the link in the left hand navigation for this unit.
On the other hand, there are many publications that do not use peer-review, such as newspapers and magazines. These publications rely on the judgment of the editor to ensure that the material contained is appropriate and at the set standard of the publication.
Think about how scientists conduct their work and report it to the world, compared to how the media (including newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and the internet) broadcast information. In your posts this week answer the following questions:
How often do you rely on media for scientific information to make decisions in your life?
Provide a specific example of scientific results being reported in media (e.g., a flu epidemic, a projected storm, or fracking). Be sure to include the headline, APA citation, and one sentence summary of the report.
Are there times when it is more appropriate to rely on media-reported science and other times when it is more appropriate to rely on peer-reviewed scientific results? Explain.
What do you think is the primary difference between communication of scientific results in the scientific community (peer-reviewed journals) and news media reporting?
Can the media influence the decisions that you make and how you feel about a topic on scientific research? Provide at least one example.

The Refinery Platform (http://www.refinery-platform.org) is a web-based data visualization and analysis system for epigenomic and genomic data designed to support reproducible biomedical research. The analysis backend employs the Galaxy Workbench and connects to a data repository based on the ISA-Tab data description format. In my talk I will discuss the exploratory visualization tools that we have integrated into Refinery.
Open Research Practices in the Age of a Papermill PandemicDorothy Bishop
Talk given to Open Research Group, Maynooth University, October 2022.
Describes the phenomenon of large-scale fraudulent science publishing (papermills), and discusses how open science practices can help tackle this.
Reproducibility, argument and data in translational medicineTim Clark
Failures in reproducibility and robustness of scientific findings are explored from statistical, historical, and argumentation theory perspectives. The impact of false positives in the literature is connected to failures in T1 and T2 biomedical translation, and is shown to have a significant impact on the costs of therapeutic development and availability of needed treatments to the public. Technological and social approaches to resolve these issues are presented. "Reproducibility" initiatives are critiqued as unsustainable and non-authoritative; improved requirements and methods for scientific communication of findings including data, methods and material are supported as the best approaches for improved reproducibility.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

What is the future of scientific communication? Open Science (Claude Pirmez)
1. WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF SCIENTIFIC COMMUNICATION?
OPEN SCIENCE
What is a preprint?
How to publish as a preprint
Why use preprints?
Experiences of Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz: the Zika Fast Track
2. A preprint is a complete scientific manuscript uploaded by the authors to a public server without
formal review
Berg et al. Preprints for the life sciences. Science 352:899, 2016
What is a preprint?
A Peer J Preprint is a draft that has not yet been
peer reviewed for formal publication.
Articles are not peer-reviewed, edited or
typeset before being posted online.
all articles undergo a basic screening process for
offensive and/or non-scientific content and for
material that might pose a health or biosecurity
risk and are checked for plagiarism. No
endorsement of an article’s methods,
assumptions, conclusions, or scientific quality by
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory is implied.
It is a digital scholar document, but
It is not an academic blog post
It is not necessarily a precursor of a physically
printed paper

Where publish your work as a preprint
5. Why publish as preprints: the faith in the peer review system
o Selects the best proposals
o Improves the quality of the work
o Detects errors and/or frauds
o Straightforward and reliable
o Long and inconsistent
o biased (‘Mathew’ effect; gender; positive results; p<0.05)
o Conflicts of interest
8. REALITY: Closed system
• takes a long time to be seen
• not always accessible
• high cost (to the author)
• does not allow updates
• the editorial process is not
transparent
• conflict of interest is frequent
• rarely interactive
Why publish as a preprints?
IDEAL: Open and dynamic system
• Free and fast publication (~24h)
• MS receives a DOI
• Establishes precedent to your research
• Publish before peer-review, or at the
same time
• Interactive: readers can leave
comments and ask questions
• Update the work with unlimited
revisions
• conflict of interest can be detected
• increases reproducibility
• decreases misconducts
https://peerj.com/about/preprints/what-is-a-preprint/
9. Main reasons to adhere to open science
• Reproducibility and research integrity
• Transparency
• Data reuse
• quality and efficiency of science
• Positive economic impact
• Research equity
Challenges
• Infraestructure
• Intelectual protection
• Protection of sensitive/confidential data
• Change of culture and scientific ecosystem
• Skepticism/distrustfulness of the scientific community
∴ science belongs to the society

Why publish as preprints: knowledge as a common good
10. Preprints
1. speed up dissemination
2. should be licensed and formatted to facilitate reuse
3. provide a record of priority
4. do not lead to being scooped
5. provide access to scholarly content that would otherwise be lost
6. do not imply low quality
7. support the rapid evaluation of controversial results
8. do not typically preclude publication
9. can further inform grant review and academic advancement and
10. one shoe does not fit all

Modifications need to be made in the reward system for science, affecting the exchange
rates for currencies (eg, publications and grants) and purchased academic goods (eg,
promotion and other academic or administrative power) and introducing currencies that are
better aligned with translatable and reproducible research.
