Live today, 16:00 CET: XRD plot duplication in papers,why it happens, how it's caught. Mu Yang x Markus Zlabinger (@ImageTwinAI) 🔗 Last chance to register: luma.com/1qmgkkn7 ▶️ Watch on YouTube: lnkd.in/dsXXZEPq ▶️ Watch on LinkedIn: lnkd.in/d-tXWr5D

Proud to share Imagetwin is a finalist for the @alpsp Award for Innovation in Publishing 2026! 🎉 Winners announced at the ALPSP Conference in Manchester this September🇬🇧 Thanks to the publishers, institutions, and researchers who trust us to safeguard image integrity!

ASM screened 2,627 manuscripts and caught duplication issues in 3.9% of accepted papers. Pre-publication fix: ~1.5 hrs. Post-publication: up to 10 hrs. Full case study: imagetwin.ai/posts/case-stu…

Researcher @addictedtoigno1 (~8,000 @pubpeervip comments, involved in a $15M settlement) joined our webinar live. Find his responses to the audience's questions here: linkedin.com/posts/imagetwi… Watch the full recording: lnkd.in/d88YcA7M

New in Imagetwin (BETA): duplicate detection for line graphs, spectra, chromatography traces, and XRD plots, within and between figure panels.

Imagetwin is now integrated into @wileyinresearch's Research Exchange, used by 1,500+ journals. Pilot result: 3x more image integrity issues detected vs. human reviewers alone. Read more: imagetwin.ai/posts/imagetwi…

🆕 Our Private Repository just got an upgrade. Build your own image database, scan manuscripts against it, and catch duplicate figures automatically. 👉 lnkd.in/d36NmMrs

Another one of those amazing @ElsevierConnect #papermill publications where 6 authors were added to the paper! Are the 2 'remaining' authors the ones that got paid by these 6 for becoming an author? #papermill #fraud

Surprised to discover that Thermo Fisher appears to show a fake western blot for the validation of one of their p53 antibodies. I've added a diagram to show the very similar bands. This does not appear to be one of the "published figures", but their own internal data.

@WCRIFoundation 2026 is off to a great start! 🎉 Alisia and Patrick are in Vancouver connecting with the research integrity community. Find them at Booth 10 or catch them at the talks! Key takeaways coming soon. 👀

@danwalker9999 @rbdamgaard @MicrobiomDigest Thanks for the mention. The "undetectable" framing is not exactly true anymore. Generative outputs leave traces, statistical, structural... Detection won't be one tool forever solving it, it's continuous work, and we're on it🙂

@rbdamgaard With respect: Previous efforts at image fakery in scientific publications could by detected by the educated eye (@MicrobiomDigest) and, more recently, by specialized AI software (e.g., @ImageTwinAI). AI such as ChatGPT can now create fake images that are undetectable.

This is concerning. But I don’t agree with the idea that the era of immunoblots and imaging is over. Anything can be faked, numerical data even easier. You can type in any number you want to generate a bar graph, yet this hasn’t invalidated ELISAs or enzymatic assays. This is a hurdle, and improved quality control measures should probably be implemented at journals. But as Max Perutz said: “In science truth always wins”.

🤝 @ImageTwinAI is now integrated into @Cactusglobal. Automated detection of image duplication, manipulation, plagiarism, and AI-generated figures, embedded directly into research and publishing workflows. 🔗 imagetwin.ai/posts/imagetwi…

The #papermill #fraud Balal Yousaf from @polsl_pl, who publishes nothing but fake stuff, got another retraction👇A relative fast retraction, took only 5 months! doi.org/10.1016/j.jcle…

Another retraction for professional #papermill #fraud Talha Bin Emran! Notice this time also Raffaele Capasso! This wannabe has put his name on many paper mill publications! But I doubt his university @UninaIT will care! These frauds continue to publish junk!

@KamounLab Good one!😂
