Ok this is big.

Web of Science just removed the MDPI flagship journal IJERPH from their lists. This means IJERPH has no more an Impact Factor.

Why is this big? What are the implications? 🧵

A PhD supervisor fully plagiarised their former PhD student dissertation. His French University found him guilty. The sanction? They can't move up the salary scale anymore for the next two years. That's it. https://t.co/lplj5LNhJ3

I have tracked anti-trans legislation for 3 years. Every day, people have asked me where to move or how at risk they are in their state.

So I created the anti-trans legislative risk map.

This is my final map of 2022.

Please subscribe, support my work.
