Those are ex vivo studies, as the article notes: “Since the early 2000s, cancers have developed in several people with inherited immune diseases who received ex vivo gene therapies, in which… cells were removed, given a therapeutic gene… then returned to the body.” Details matter: scim.ag/49vonz8

He’s pretty much continuing to tweet on X as he used to. Associating with grifters like Sabine Hazan‘s crowd, and prominent vaccine skeptics. He didn’t even last 24 hours after his “disconnect“ post.

So this author claims he's been subjected to years of "attacks" and "false accusations," and then picks *this paper* to show how ridiculous the concerns are. It doesn't matter that this is a 1998 paper, the problem is evident to anyone with eyes. pubpeer.com/publications... x.com/weldeiry/sta...

Südhof has lost his marbles.

Quality work, Phytomedicine (Elsevier).

Thanks for sharing. I think they did a relatively thorough job, but I have quibbles about a few things. One broad concern: if a senior researcher has (independently identified) concerns in 3 dozen papers over almost 3 decades, who cares about “intent?”

.@wiley.com continues to slowly remediate the toxic legacy it acquired from Hindawi (a self-own that no one has ever satisfactorily explained). This Journal of Oncology paper was retracted today. 🎩 Hoya. pubpeer.com/publications...

After reading the 7 SciGuardians posts (so you don't have to), the "audit's" revelations are: ▶️nonprofits collaborate, ▶️people sit on boards, and ▶️funders make grants. The leap from that to criminal activity and fraud is left as an exercise for the reader.

This is covered in the new COPE guidelines.

You didn’t “discover” this, @SabinehazanMD; at best you showed an association, not causation. It’s merely an *unproven* hypothesis. And BioMedCentral (@springernature.com) should retract this paper. More details: pubpeer.com/publications...

Thank you @reeserichardson.bsky.social and @sholtodavid.bsky.social for following through on these issues. As an outsider to all this, it is remarkable how cavalier the companies' responses have been.

Another quick Wiley retraction, only 3 months after my notification. 👏 pubpeer.com/publications... 🎩 hoya

I stayed here in ~1975/6

Blue poppy from my aunt in Alaska.

Meanwhile, at the other place….

The Oncotarget paper has its own problems. No action after 18 months. 😐

Retraction from Wiley journal took just 3 months. 👏 pubpeer.com/publications... 🎩 hoya

I don’t know what I walked into here. 🙈

How much will Brown Medicine appreciate getting inquiries from the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigation looking into potential retaliation against an employee?

All 3 retracted on the same day.

When even MDPI isn’t buying it. Retracted today, after almost 4 years. “[T]he Editorial Office was unable to verify the accuracy of the originally reported authorship list or confirm the provenance of the study.”

Nearly 4 years passed before Wiley got around to retracting this. pubpeer.com/publications... 🎩 Hoya
