Following an editorial invitation, my article “Why listening to learners matters in medical education reform” was published in @bmj_latest and shows that learner informed, practice oriented education improves outcomes and reduces stress.

The BMJ News article highlights optimism in medicine and public health. Drawing on over 𝟱𝟬𝟬 statistical peer reviews conducted in 2025, my short piece in The BMJ shows that this optimism is weakened by persistent flaws in statistical reporting. @bmj_latest @GlobalHealthBMJ

I’m pleased to share that I received two individual Rector’s Awards: a first-degree award for research on WAME members’ views on statistical peer review and a second-degree award for a study on Polish medical students’ views on biostatistics. @PolishArchives @BioMedCentral

11 papers retracted from a PhD student. Surprising? Not really. Just check the recent news: 1. The rector of a Spanish university ran a citation-inflation scheme. He was one of Spain’s most-cited academics. Springer Nature retracted 75 papers linked to him in 2024. 2. Another highly-cited chemist in Spain was suspended for 13 years by his university in 2023. In June 2025, at least 11 of his papers were retracted for fraudulent practices. 3. A German anesthesiologist has had 184 retractions. He was once one of the leading international figures in perioperative medicine Just wow. 4. A French mega-cited scientist, a director of IHU Méditerranée Infection, had 6 retractions for ethics violations and 50 articles marked by PLOS. He retired after that. 5. A Japan scientist in anesthesiology had > 170 fabricated papers. His career ended. 6. A Harvard professor had her tenure revoked and was fired in May 2025 after an internal misconduct finding. 7. The STANFORD PRESIDENT resigned after data manipulation was found in several highly cited papers. Two Science papers were retracted. 8. A tenured professor from the University of Minnesota resigned in March 2025 after the retraction of a highly cited Nature paper in June 2024 due to manipulated images. 9. A very high-profile professor from Cornell resigned after two dozen retractions. 📍 What’s going on? Very simple. Make metrics the aim, and science disappears. Many scientists pursue careers instead of science. They focus on awards, number of papers, citations… Their labs turn into production factories - factories of low-quality research and low-quality graduates. ❗️Remember: Your career should be a by-product of science. Not the opposite.

AI-Assisted Statistical Review: Could It Have Averted Retractions? A Case-Based Perspective From #Immunology. Michal Ordak Read the article here: doi.org/10.1111/all.16… This study explores the potential and limitations of using AI models to assist in the detection of statistical flaws during peer review. Using #ChatGPT and #Gemini Advanced 2.0, three retracted articles due to statistical errors were queried with questions regarding statistical errors, test assumptions and reporting clarity. Although both models identified issues in all of the articles, their inherent limitations are discussed. Read more articles published in #Allergy here: journalallergy.com #allergy_journal
