"Chasing squiggles" was a talk given at Harvard today. 😊🤙
Wiley: "After a detailed analysis of the concerns for each remaining article, we did not find anything to require further action on these articles. ......As such, we are now closing our investigation." Me: yeah but what about the O peaks at 8.5 KeV ....😅 pubpeer.com/publications...

(3/x) Almost all papers were flagged by Mu Yang (@mumumouse2.bsky.social) and me this year. Multiple articles were reported to Wiley, 50+ are currently being investigated by Elsevier's ethics team. Wiley's team looked at the article in (1) and send me this email which left me very confused:
This study on effects of probiotics in Parkinson's clinical trial has been retracted. pubpeer.com/publications.... This yogurt stuff confuses me: Could impair sociability pubpeer.com/publications... but help with Parkinson's?? I guess both studies are goofy. I love yogurt.
Had a lot of fun giving a talk at the @hope.net conference today. Being considered cool by hackers is the coolest thing ever 😎.

Another @plosone.org retraction of an Eliezer Masliah paper. Findings by @mumumouse2.bsky.social and me. "Regarding the similarities within the western blot panels in Fig 2A, the corresponding author stated that this figure was included for illustration purposes only." pubpeer.com/publications...
Just upgraded to an actually scary sleuth. 。◕‿◕。
Giving a talk on image manipulation today at the IEEE Panel of Editors meeting in Montreal.
These two XRD only differ in places of two peaks. The weird part is that they indicate the same stuff, but one with two extra peaks. The peak at 7.5 KeV doesn't help.
Looking forward to this panel discussion!
Looking forward to participating in this @stmassoc.bsky.social session in April "Beyond fabricated research articles: questionable research practices and their consequences over time" with Adya Misra, Rachel Safer, and @mumumouse2.bsky.social.
Not the first time someone deleted their Google scholar as Dysdera arabisenen binge-flagging their papers on Pubpeer. ╮(╯_╰)╭
I posted several papers that I flagged by a certain author on LinkedIn --- I flagged 11 in 23 hours. I got a DM telling me to take my posts down. Nope! pubpeer.com/search?q=Muh...
