Predatory medical and scientific journals a problem
« on: June 02, 2018, 08:40:18 pm »
From NEJM Journal Watch (May 28, 2018), a blogpost by Paul Sax, MD, entitled "Predatory Journals Are Such a Big Problem It's Not Even Funny." It's addressed to medical professionals but the remarks would be helpful to anyone who looks through lists of medical articles. It's a good idea to be aware that some journal titles that look legitimate aren't.
