having a scam artist as a sponsor for a video about another scam artist is top notch irony lmao

I attempted a PhD in cancer biology twice. I quit bith times, partially because I couldn’t get reproducible data from my experiments. Experiements I based on papers like thise mentioned here that have been proven fraudulent.

Sigh

Pete, love most of your videos, but please, be careful with sponsors like Masterworks. The fact that these kind of videos are sponsored by them could diminish your content, to say the least.

"I take credit but not responsibility."
"I share in the immediate rewards but refuse any later punishment."
Authority without responsibility - the plague of our times.

This case reveals yet another tip of the iceberg in the broken peer review system that rewards the quantity of publications over quality.

Paper-milling is endemic in academia. Researchers want money -> get a grant -> need papers -> generate papers -> need more papers -> rewrite existing papers -> need more papers -> come up with a sexy solution, hope they never read past the abstract -> grant money! -> money for me -> go back to beginning.

You know masterworks is timeshare scheme? Bc you don't truly own the pieces and it's impossible to sell and you have to pay management fees

taking Masterworks as sponsor is a L on this channel

56 results for Semenza on pubpeer. Many of these papers were published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences which allows members to 'contribute' papers which receive preferential treatment in terms of review. This is probably why Semenza is the only western name on these papers since his primary role was likely to get the paper published by this less stringent route.

as someone who has worked on this side of academia it’s MUCH worse than people can imagine … we don’t even want to get into the topic of the statistical validity

[billscott]

How many patient treatment protocols have been affected by fraudulent papers.

[fragslap]

Indeed, I was trained in statistics and experimental design and anymore I can't hardly TOLERATE reading ANY life science article. Probably 80 plus percent either show gross flaws in design/analysis or else report SUSPICIOUS data.

What strikes me most about the fraud cases I know is how blatantly obvious the fraud actually was. Knowing it would be easy to disguise fraud just a little bit, and knowing this would be sufficient to go undetected in today's world lets me estimate that the actual amount of fraudulent behavior in science may be gigantic

Thanks so much for these videos, I’m just in my 1st year in Uni and watching these videos have really helped me “touch grass” and take off my rose tinted glasses about academia. Please continue to enlighten me and others with your knowledge and experience, it really helps <3

I think you need to put these people's names in your titles and/or descriptions. When people search their names, your videos should show up exposing them.

As former scientist, i always hated that mass production of papers. Some colleagues were usally not deeply interested in their scientific topic, climbing the ladder as fast as possible was more important to them. This (your topic) is what emerges from it. What i most hate about it this is, that the dark shadow of these scandals fall upon all the other (deeply honest) scientists, who try hard to advance science. All the black sheeps should experience fast and hard consequences! Cheating in science is a no-go!

Masterworks has distributed $45 million. How much of that was actual profit to the investors? Meanwhile Mark Lynn CEO pays $30 million for a New York condo.

Thanks for the video. This is more disturbing than the others because it goes all the way to the Nobel Prize. Small point: It is "Johns Hopkins, " John has an "s" on it.

Retraction is not good enough. There needs to be a permanent record of why specifically they were retracted (not generalities but “data was falsified” and how). Authors (names inserted)retracted their peer reviewed paper after caught falsifying the data.
