Ralf Neumann widmet sich in seiner neuen Kolumne dem Thema, wie #Fake-Studien zunehmend #Meta-Analysen und Reviews unterwandern. Das geht schneller als gedacht. Was bei einer Fake-Studie beginnt, beeinflusst schnell höhere Ebenen der #Wissenschaft, wodurch #Forschung an Glaubwürdigkeit und Erkenntniskraft verliert: https://www.laborjournal.de/editorials/3460.php
