Hindawi Publishing

We’ve published a whitepaper, dedicated to our research integrity journey and the challenges faced by academic publishing due to unethical scholarly practices. Here’s what to expect: 1. A detailed discussion of the major factors impacting academic publishing, including peer review rings, unethical authorship practices, paper mills, and the use of AI. 2. A look into what happened at Hindawi because of these things—investigations, mass retractions, the pausing of our Special Issues program, and more. 3. An overview of our current progress and the new practices and policies we have introduced to prevent the manipulation of academic publishing going forward. 4. A call to action inviting publishers to take a collaborative approach to cleanse the scholarly record and protect the scholarly ecosystem, based on findings from our experience.
