Retractions: On the Rise, But Not Enough, by Ivan Oransky, M.D.

Event box

Online

In 2000, there were about 40 retractions from the scholarly literature. In 2023, there were more than 10,000. That is a dramatic increase, even accounting for the growing number of papers published per year.

In this UCI Libraires sponsored talk, Ivan Oransky, M.D. will explore the reasons for the increase, why it is good news, and why the real number should be even higher. Dr. Oransky will tell the stories of the sleuths who are finding problems in the literature, drawing on more than a decade of experience at Retraction Watch.

The webinar presentation is open to attendees interested in tracking retractions as a window into the scientific process, open access to information about scientific corrections and retractions, and ethics in publishing.
