        Editors, publishers, and peer reviewers are continuously failing us to produce good quality science. While the publishers are raking in money by publishing this crap, we #ImageForensics detectives are finding these fake images voluntarily and unpaid.

        There are whole groups of authors who produce these fake datasets to get the publications they need for their promotion/PhD/professorship. They are the obvious guilty persons, but we desperately need better checks to prevent this crap from being published.

        And those checks should not just be done by volunteers who quit their paid jobs or spend all their free time in order to try to improve science.

        Do journals make folks submit the #FlowCytometry data files, and analysis software work spaces? -https://mobile.twitter.com/MicrobiomDigest/status/1228808178097221632 …

        I never submitted data files with my publications. However, we always submitted the full uncropped #WesternBlot images.

        Yes, I marked those in green. Or did I miss something else?

        Also found: flip the top half of 24h NC upside down and you get the bottom half of 24h siRNA-EZH2. Does your team look for these copy-pastes using human eyes or with apps? My best guess at a computational method involves convolutional neural network or Fourier transform.

        Ah, great find! I use human eyes initially, and Forensically secondary for images with lots of direct duplicates - I assume the others also do it similarly. Forensically could not detect these duplications for example.

        I don't know what could end it other than people boycotting publications that make these mistakes.
