@cpimspeak@cituhq Hypocrite.. where is the rally when Bangladeshi Hindus r lynched, killed, women r raped and burnt alive. Where was your protest? This is the reason you guys r obsolete in every election now.
Muslims who migrated to #Pakistan have spent all their lives proving loyalty to Pakistan, yet they are called Muhajirs, and were treated like second-class citizens.
Thanks to Shaykh #AbulKalam Azad for exposing #Jinnah’s nefarious agenda. We stayed back, and we are safe and sound.
We don’t have Lashkar-Jhangvi who blows bombs in Shia gatherings, and we don’t have Sipa-Mohammed who blow bombs in Sunni gatherings. Sunnis and Shias have absolute freedom in India.
Our children go to school safely and return home safely. We don’t have TTP to blow bombs in schools.
From Kashmir to Kanyakumari, we travel with pride and safety. We don’t have areas, where Punjabis fear to travel, or regions where Pushtuns are stopped at every checkpoint.
We don’t have Balochs, Punjabis, Pushtuns, Sindhis, sharpening their knives against each other.
We don’t keep dozens of AK-47s in our houses to fire celebratory bullets on Eid, and kill random civilians walking on the streets.
Our children learn AI, Cybersecurity, and Humanity. Unlike your children who learn Ghazwa-Hind and AK47s.
Jinnah fooled you in 1946, Kalam enlightened us in 1946.
Alhamdulillah we are PROUD INDIAN MUSLIMS!
For too long we did not see justice for the evil beheading of Daniel Pearl.
Personally grateful to government of @PMOIndia.
Daniel Pearl forever memorialized by his last words echoing thousands of years of Jewish history & persecution: “My father is Jewish, my mother is Jewish, I am Jewish."
My lab is looking to hire several postdocs to lead translational research projects. Please reach out if you are a spring or summer PhD grad with expertise in immunology, genome editing, or chemistry. RTs appreciated!
We can make a difference if we unite. JN Roy hospital in Kolkata says:
“ We have decided that from today onwards , we will not treat any Bangladeshi patient . The country which disrespects our flag, kills minorities we cannot treat them . For us our country is first .”
#BoycottBangladesh like we boycotted Maldives. "Ek hain toh safe hain"
BREAKING:
More and more videos coming out of Bangladesh, showing local Islamists taking advantage of the chaos in the country to attack the homes of the Hindu community in the country

All Editors of NeuroImage (IF = 7) resigned because Elsevier didn’t want to reduce the hefty publication fee (it’s $3,450 !!!). And then started their OWN journal!
Just a reminder - the profit margin for academic publishing often reaches 40% (while for non-academic - 15%).
Obviously, who would reduce the profits to 15% only to make authors happy? It’s all about business. Profits should NOT drop.
This is one of the reasons why we have to pay A LOT to publish an open-access #research paper.
Let's look at numbers. NeuroImage publishes ~1,000 articles per year and it’s fully open access. Thus, it gives ~ $3.5 million in direct revenue from APC.
In the letter, the editors say that “the estimates of direct article costs at relevant journals are generally around $1,000 or lower”, which gives you some idea of profit margins just from this journal.
At first, the editors proposed a compromise by reducing the APC to $2000. However, after some “battles”, Elsevier stated that “the APC would not be reduced because they believe that market forces support the current APC”.
Outcome of this situation?
1. All 40 editors have resigned.
2. All editors decided to start a new NON-profit journal “Imaging Neuroscience”:
- It's under MIT Press
- Fees <50% of the current APC for NeuroImage
- The overall scope, quality level and entire editorial team will be the same as previously for NeuroImage
- The APC will be WAIVED for low- or middle-income countries.
My thoughts:
1. It is a great move by the editors. As I know how academics love to disagree with each other, I find this cooperative nature of their efforts mind-blowing.
2. This sets an example of how an editorial team can make their own journal.
3. This can be the beginning of a major shift in academic publishing.
Big changes take much time. But milestone events are often noticeable, and this resignation is clearly one of them.
Finally, all this suggests that prestige of a journal should NOT originate only from the impact factor and editorial board members.
It should be also based on how accessible the APC is for an average research group.
