If CDU and SPD do not work together productively soon, the AfD will get even more votes next round and can then block any changes in the constitution (“Sperrminorität”).

Would you predict that the USA will establish a firewall to restrict access to the Internet in order to take control of which information will be available within the USA?

Gender is an important “risk factor” for immunological diseases like autoimmunity. This is why Gender is included in almost all clinical studies as metadata.

I am happy to see that spatial proteomics is the method of the year 2024. In 2022 we published our MACSima system www.nature.com/articles/s41... , including a very easy to use software for spatial proteomics (Disclaimer: I work at Miltenyi Biotec at the moment).

Just for the record, ChatGPT (free version) also got the three references correctly. ChatGPT did not judge OpenAlex but offered alternative databases to use.

The errors described above are hypothetical examples based on the known limitations of OpenAlex. The actual errors might vary depending on the specific data and the version of OpenAlex being used. It is always recommended to verify the information from OpenAlex with the original sources. (I agree !)

I tested Gemini (paid subscription) and asked for three original references of my publications that are wrong in OpenAlex. Gemini got the references 100% correct. I liked the summary “The errors described above are hypothetical examples based on the known limitations of OpenAlex. …

The authors discuss OpenAlex accuracy at a very high level and do not go into any details or show examples of “errors” in the reference entries. If you find a problem with one (or more) of your references in OpenAlex, please add them here.

paperpal.com seams also to use OpenAlex, I spotted the known problem of OpenAlex with my publication on the description of the VBASE2 database. At least both the cell paper and the science paper are correct. Most likely currently a pre may version of OpenAlex is used. Be aware.

Should publications based on OpenAlex data be accepted when no additional data validation steps were included and should online tools using OpenAlex data include a clearly visible disclaimer that the underlying data is most likely wrong (at least at the moment) ?

Prof Werner Muller @wmuee.bsky.social · 30/11/2024
SemOpenAlex got it correct (semopenalex.org/work/W199753...), but only because they are currently using the may version of OpenAlex. Expect to be wrong as soon as SemOpenAlex updates their data source. They miss my Cell paper from 1993. semopenalex.org/author/A5013.... What a mess.

I am not sure of you know OpenAlex.org. It is a database of scientific literature. The data is used by many secondary literature analysis programs on the Web. The database is full of errors and omissions. I am trying to fix the errors and you can vote for me at tinyurl.com/VoteOpenAlex
