Research Integrity Tool launched by STM Integrity Hub
STM Solutions has announced the launch of a pilot program to detect duplicate submissions to scholarly publications, which is against publisher policies and often indicates the work of paper mills, which produce and sell fraudulent research. This workflow, part of the STM Integrity Hub, allows to detect duplicate submissions across different journals, publishers, and submission systems while upholding robust confidentiality and privacy standards. IEEE, IOP Publishing, ACS Publications, Taylor & Francis, Sage, and PeerJ are among the publishers who have already signed on.
