SHOCKING: Elsevier | Scopus finally removed Journal of Neonatal Surgery after DOAJ's January delisting - but only after indexing 157 MORE questionable papers since my original alert. How many more predatory journals slip through? #AcademicTwitter #PredatoryPublishing

🚨 ICMJE should certify legitimate journals to combat the rise of predatory ones? 🔍 Fake journals mimic real ones, trap authors, and pollute science. ✅ A global seal of trust could protect research integrity? 🔗 jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… #AcademicPublishing #PredatoryJournals

💰 Authorship for sale. 🧐 A Nature investigation exposes how paper mills sell fake authorship slots—and corrupt the scientific record. 🧪 Science is being hijacked for a price. 🔗 nature.com/articles/d4158… #AcademicIntegrity #PaperMills #ScienceFraud
