I'm a bot who works for @PubPeer. Call me with a reply to a tweet about an article and I'll add the tweet to PubPeer for you. You can help me find the appropriate PubPeer pages by including a DOI or arXiv ID in your reply. (nb. Like yours, my PubPeer comments are also moderated)

@mediumwhite @MicrobiomDigest @PubPeer It is always possible to comment anonymously.

@MicrobiomDigest @PubPeer Hi @MicrobiomDigest & @PubPeer, I tried to write on pubpeer as a patient advocate, to highlight a paper which is demonstrably wrong and misleading, but because I don’t have an academic email, it won’t publish my comment. Any suggestions? I have doi link, but insufficient. 🤷‍♂️

So many people are asking me to help them look at papers. Folks, I would really love to, but I am already stretched thin, and need time to recharge, spend with family, and sleep. Please help me by posting concerns on @PubPeer yourself.

@fatcat933172 @PubPeer @embojournal Once the moderators performed their own analysis they felt that it was not possible to rule out a combination of a(n admittedly) strange gel and compression artefacts.

@pubpeer @embojournal Is it normal for this "raw data" of Western blotting assay? pubpeer.com/publications/C…

@deadneanderthal @PubPeer @MicrobiomDigest @GidMK It may now work.

@PubPeerBot @PubPeer @MicrobiomDigest @GidMK Radboudumc.nl Thanks for the quick reply!

I really want to create a signed account on @PubPeer , however won't let me as it has trouble with my institutional email address. Somebody with similar issues? Somebody able to help me out? Thanks in advance! Cc: @MicrobiomDigest @GidMK

@fatcat933172 @PubPeer @embojournal Which paper is that from?

@PubPeerBot @PubPeer @embojournal So the "compression artefacts" only work for 2 bands, but not for 6 bands for the membrane, is it correct? Is this attached image normal without insertion from the same group? I hope this is not the "compression artefacts".

@KordingLab @MicrobiomDigest @PubPeer @daniel_akuna Lydia who?

@MicrobiomDigest @PubPeer Is Lydia still the number 1 user? Shame @daniel_akuna isn’t so active on pubpeer!

Currently in Prague, where a bunch of us image and data detectives and journalists will meet. Very nice to meet some of the @PubPeer power users!

@mumumouse @PubPeer "Greylisting" of a commenter is neither unusual nor permanent. It was probably because a moderator felt a comment was unsupported and wanted to check observance of our guidelines. Maybe this one: pubpeer.com/publications/6…

@PubPeer revoked my no-moderation privilege, apparently because someone was not happy. I invite everyone to review all my 717 posts in PP here. Full transparency. pubpeer.com/search?q=dysde…

@Fynnderella1 @Agus1Sunnely @PubPeer All points factually true. A grant was obtained (used to redevelop the site). And, yes, quite strict moderation is performed. Revelation: you can't please everybody. One important bullet point was omitted by JATdS: "PubPeer commenters hurt my butt". pubpeer.com/search?q=%22te…

Always follow the money… @PubPeer paid to kill opposition to narrative? researchgate.net/publication/33…

@GidMK Hi, Your thread has been embedded on PubPeer: pubpeer.com/publications/1…

7/n There are also a number of "unspecified" deaths in these studies. The J&J trial had 1 of these in the intervention and 2 in the control - these are counted as non-COVID+non-accidental in the paper, but the authors don't appear to have verified that as far as I can see

A new preprint has gone viral as it seems to indicate that mRNA vaccines are less useful than adenovirus vaccines such as Astrazeneca for COVID-19 However, there are some issues. A bit of twitter peer-review 1/n

@StabellBenn Hi, Your thread has been embedded on PubPeer: pubpeer.com/publications/1…

@lonnibesancon @arikouts @KielJohanna I could cite several hundred papers, but usually people find the TEDx more accessible. Here is a link to a recent review if you are truly interested in the science. thelancet.com/journals/lanin…

Finally published: Our article comparing the overall mortality effects of adenovirus-vector COVID-19 vaccines and mRNA COVID-19 vaccines based on data from the randomized clinical trials. The two vaccine types had significantly different effects. cell.com/iscience/pdf/S…

@StabellBenn Hi, Your thread has been embedded on PubPeer: pubpeer.com/publications/1…

@lonnibesancon @arikouts @KielJohanna @PubPeer I have not seen this particular critique. But I am sure I can guess the content. Now that the paper is published you could submit a letter for the journal and see if they find it relevant to publish.

@ClaudeSteve6 Hi, Your thread has been embedded on PubPeer: pubpeer.com/publications/1…

OK guys, we'll have to talk about this paper. Thread 🧵 1/ The authors are : @StabellBenn, @FSBuchholzer, Sebastian Nielsen, Mihai G. Netea and Peter Aaby. It's published in Cell's @iScience_CP, impact factor of 6.1, so we should be confident in the results. But we can't...

@StuartJRitchie Hi, Your thread has been embedded on PubPeer: pubpeer.com/publications/0…

On further reflection I've decided to delete this tweet. "V imperfect" is nowhere near strong enough to describe this preprint (medrxiv.org/content/10.110…). I really dropped the ball by not criticising it more deeply - sorry! I re-read it, and some criticisms follow:

@IsaacKing314 Hi, Your thread has been embedded on PubPeer: pubpeer.com/publications/0…

Here's a nice example of why science communication is hard. 🧵

Ok friends, tell me what looks VERY odd about this Table 1 of a randomized trial Difficulty: 👀👀👀
