It’s great to be in the room as Caroline Sutton announces the release of STM’s latest report on research integrity.

It was a pleasure to support the STM Research Integrity Committee in painting a picture of publisher efforts in this fast-evolving area.

A lot of #scholcomm #publishing startups focus on using #AI to detect bad manuscripts at the point of review.
Publishing is a late stage step in the scholalry supply change. Trying to detect what has happened at each upstream step is a fool's errand. The whole chain needs hardening #STMinnovation

I've got a new piece at @lseimpactblog.bsky.social today following on from my previous piece about the British Library cyberattack and arguing that, since the UK Government clearly doesn't care about the UK knowledge sector, we need to develop our own community-led tech and infrastructure solutions.

I completely agree that more is needed to implement the CRediT taxonomy in proper scholarly infrastructure. I love coding, but text and data mining is not the right way to get data that should be available in a standardised format!

Newly released Stockholm Declaration recommends the following reforms to publishing:

1. Academia resumes control of publishing

2. Incentive systems to merit quality, not quantity

3. Independent fraud detection and prevention

4. Legislation and policies to protect science quality and integrity
