An absolute #mustread showing how much the publishing industry is using and abusing scientists for profit. And with a bonus metric to catch fraudulent citations, the #impactinflation

The strain on scientific publishing: we set out to characterise the remarkable growth of the scientific literature in the last few years, in spite of declining growth in total scientists. What is going on?

In 2020, 18.1 million new cancer cases were diagnosed worldwide, expected to rise to 28 million by 2040. These figures lead us to raise awareness and take action against cancer. In our lab, we work to fight these numbers. #WorldCancerDay #WCD2025
