About this session

This session will address significant threats to scientific integrity, including predatory journals, paper mills, academic misconduct, Generative AI misuse, and rising retractions, all of which are eroding public trust in science. The session aims to explore these “dark side” issues, their underlying mechanisms, and their impact on researchers, institutions, and society. It will also highlight resources like RetractionWatch and PubPeer that promote transparency and accountability in research.
