AI speeds up research—but at what cost? Fake citations, biased queries, misread studies… even specialized tools like Elicit or Consensus aren’t foolproof. Read more: opensciencelab.uc3m.es/blog/the-pro...

Not everything that looks “scientific” truly is. Beware of unreliable journals that fake legitimacy while hiding questionable research practices beneath the surface.

Many research projects are publicly funded Yet, the results often remain locked behind paywalls This means citizens pay twice—once to fund the research through taxes, and again to access it… …Isn’t it time we made public research truly public?

For us, a journal simply becomes predatory when it seeks profit by charging APCs (Article Processing Charges). For these journals, financial gain becomes the priority, and the value of academic work takes a backseat. 👇
