Writing about negative data was fun because I read a bunch of Stephen Jay Gould, plus a related commentary by Howard Bowerman. Both provided fantastic examples outside cell biology and biomedicine that perfectly highlight the universality of this issue:

Spent a delightful week visiting my colleagues @EMBOPress and attending the super stimulating @EMBLEvents symposium on phase separation in cell biology. Everything an editor wants in one place 🥰

Core facilities are at the center of research integrity and reproducibility efforts: they are the experts helping researchers get their stuff done! Now out in @JofMicroscopy this excellently argued perspective coauthored by my colleague @RockefellerUniv Alison North.

Editors are absolutely not scrutinizing images by eye and just "missed" this. Certainly not at Cell Press! This kind of image duplication is trivial to detect with very standard QC checks. Why would the journal let this issue go uncorrected?
Richard Fuisz@richardfuisz

This paper got a few million views across various RTs two weeks ago: EMF remote-controlled mice... Look carefully at the saline & control images from the paper -- can you see how the two images are flipped and re-cropped? h/t @AndrewGYork and friends for the close read

The focus on a banchmarking/competition of AI ~against~ human advisors is helpful for measuring what they can do. But this is emphasized much more strongly than what David mentioned... and lay readers only reasonable take away is that AI will fully replace doctors.

This paper was mentioned by Eric Horvitz, Microsoft CSO (and coauthor of this paper) yesterday at Rockefeller. His takeaway was o-1 ~integration~ with physicians as advisors. Humans in the loop. Yet that isn't mentioned in the abstract nor the Editor Summary @ScienceMagazine

Great point. It would also help if a scientific organization with the reputation of HHMI would at least show an accurate representation of DNA in their PR releases.
Michael 英泉 Eisen@mbeisen

So @leslievosshall, how about if the @hhmi_science news team stopped focusing on papers in Nature, Science etc... and instead only linked to news stories about preprints?

BATF3 is involved in memory T cell differentiation. Here the authors take a deep dive into its potential promoting CAR T cell functions. They profile epigenetic rewiring and provide detailed comparisons with the related BATF. Congrats to the authors on this impressive study!

Check out a new paper published in LSA: BATF3 regulates differentiation of CD8+ T lymphocytes and memory differentiation program @NagoyaUniv hubs.la/Q04c6b_40

@anshulkundaje @arjunrajlab I agree, but she is just following a very clear signal by an editor at a journal she’d want to publish in.

@timisstuck @arjunrajlab This is a totally counterproductive move by the PI. Their work will literally be delayed by years. In this fast moving world, that is basically a path to irrelevance.

Just met with a PI at UCSC who also confirmed this. She will not preprint new work because she was told by editors it would hurt her chances. Not good for science!
Arjun Raj@arjunrajlab

@samjlord For some, yes (including myself). I will say that I have noticed many authors who have retreated from using preprints upon first submission due to journals looking unfavorably on papers that have been up as preprints for a long time, which is sad for science.

Had another fabulous visit to my alma mater @UCSCscience 🥰 Thanks to the faculty (@NeedhiBhalla + others) and students for many fantastic convos covering careers and publishing! Some pics I snapped around campus:

ERROR, a Swiss project that pays scientists cash bounties for finding errors in published papers, has only paid out ~$6,900 in prizes after two years. "The project planned to carry out 100 in-depth critiques in 4 years, but only nine have been completed so far," according to reporting in Science. It seems that "money itself is not enough of an incentive" for this, because scientists are often afraid to criticize colleagues, etc. That's a shame.
