Opinion | A Journal Promised to Retract a Flawed Autism Study. It's Still Online. Junk science leaves an indelible mark

What should researchers do about "junk science"?

@drkatiesuleta.bsky.social has spent the past 15 months trying to have a flawed autism case study retracted -- revealing how junk science continues to persist in the scientific record.

I've been keeping tabs on a terrible study for over a year and corresponding with the publishing journal. Getting a bad article retracted is a lot of work. Read more about my journey in @medpagetoday.com. Thanks to @gfriedman.bsky.social!

Dr. Katie Suleta: Coordinated Attack on Science, Grants and Brain Drain How could corpus analysis quantify politicized language shifts and their effects on awards, citations, and time-to-impact?

Read the original. Read the sequel. @joho.bsky.social is doing the important work.

Everyone Else is Lying to You: My Book is Done! The pandemic’s biggest disinformation superspreaders are now in charge. How did this happen?

The sequel to We Want Them Infected is done!

COVID killed 1.2 million Americans while vaccines saved millions.

Yet, disinformation superspreaders were empowered, where they are taking a wrecking ball to science & medicine.

How did that happen?🧵
