DO NOT SUBMIT PAPERS TO Nature Scientific Reports @SciReports unless you want to undergo our #unfair treatment too. We submitted our manuscript on July 29 2025 and yesterday, after 8 MONTHS and no first round of feedback, despite suggesting twice additional reviewers, we discover no Editor is currently handling our manuscript.
🤐
Our TILLMI paper describes a 10K$ experiment including a new instrument measuring#trust in #LLMs (https://t.co/PjMUXDoaS2) and it received even a few citations despite still being a preprint. This paper does not deserve being halted for 8 months with no feedback whatsoever.
👆
The system is indeed overwhelmed and it is difficult to find reviewers, I know this very well being myself an Editor in a good journal too.
👇
But this disservice, halting a paper for 8 months, cannot be accepted. Not in a journal venue where the whole process is covered by an APC, where editors and reviewers keep being exploited for free.
Journal authors are treated like nothing.
It is time to #complain and #change.

🇮🇳 A visionary ahead of his time, Dr. Homi Jehangir Bhabha envisioned atomic energy not as a choice, but as the foundation of our future. On his birth anniversary, DAE honours the legacy that guides India’s atomic energy journey.

#Teaching immunoassays at a fraction of the cost, using this NEW agar-based chemical diffusion that mimics the principles of #Ouchterlony Diffusion - Freedom to devise your own problem sets to aid experiential learning among undergraduate students 👩🎓, in the age of #Corona!
@AkshajJoshi333@pnas Argument: this could simply b an effect of specific diet &/or sleep routine @ishafoundation, which will result in a change as BOTH are immune effectors. A good design would be to compare a similar number of individuals, who stayed there & did the same routine minus the meditation
@AkshajJoshi333 The experiment is mostly a multifactorial effect, & they didn't tease out the meditation factor in a properly controlled fashion: scientifically speaking, surprised @pnas
In a longitudinal study design pattern, many people do such studies, but it's not best controlled for (1/2)

@MTPHereToHelp got a challan on my account (Nov 2024) & downloaded pdf, but when I log in to contest the challan on MTP Website, the challan doesn't exist. Proof: Passenger was wearing seatbelt, visible from the side view window - wrongly given challan - please advise what next.
@top2p_sci @Stanford@ElsevierConnect creates a LIST that you publicise widely/viral on SoMe, that you yourself claim is NOT exhaustive, but sadly includes frauds like this! Please carry out checks too, as this questions its credibility.

Interesting ideas about the "cost of memories" and how to apply it to our daily lives! A good read for students who are trying to learn something they consider currently "not so appealing"
We think of our own, biological memory the way we think of computer memory: the more, the better. But that’s not what evolution intended when it created learning. Learning is not just about storing information: it is about choosing what to store and what to discard. 🧵/1
The story of #Singapore's visionary Lee Kuan Yew transformed the island from 2/3rd slums (1965), to 90% home owners with the 3rd highest GDP/capita, best paid #Teachers, rewarded education and technical skills, and #ZERO_TOLERANCE on corruption- the choices were tough, but CLEAR.
In 1965, Singapore was forced out of Malaysia.
No army.
No resources.
No fresh water.
A tiny island of 2M people living in slums.
Then ONE man's ruthless vision built modern Asia's greatest success...

@InterestingSTEM What is the data based on which she recommends this? desserts had postprandial(meals)? VERY MISKEAFING! Meta analysis says ONLY ONE THING: #avoid#sugar at all costs. Only option: replace by low glycemic alternatives. https://t.co/qkqtpvEn1h
Interesting thread... The patterns of epigenetic inheritance might be real, although I may not agree with some of the unproven solutions that this post subscribes to. But this is why we study epigenetic memories and how to undo the faulty ones.
If you think you have Trauma, science says it didn't start with you.
Unhealed trauma doesn't just disappear—it gets passed down through DNA as self-sabotage, cycles of failure, and toxic relationships.
Here's what science says about generational trauma (and how to break the cycle):🧵
