A study analyzing millions of biomedical and life science articles reveals that female-authored articles spend longer under review than comparable male-authored articles across most fields. The disparity underscores the ongoing issue of women's underrepresentation in academia, particularly in STEMM fields.
UNAM and Taylor & Francis announce a three-year agreement to publish research articles in over 2,400 journals. This move aims to boost the global reach and impact of UNAM's research.
New indicators have been introduced to Taylor & Francis journal articles to inform readers when cited research has been retracted or updated. These updates ensure researchers are fully informed about the status of the research and can make informed decisions.
A machine-learning algorithm called xFakeSci has been developed to detect AI-generated scientific articles, with a success rate of nearly 94%. The tool analyzes word patterns and bigrams to distinguish between real and fake papers, highlighting the need for comprehensive detection methods as AIs become increasingly sophisticated.
A team of mathematicians, led by University of Georgia Professor Dino Lorenzini, have solved a four-decade-old math problem involving groups A and B. They demonstrated that the number of elements in group B is always a perfect square under certain conditions.
Ezra A. Brown, professor of mathematics at Virginia Tech, received the George Pólya Award for his article 'Square Roots from 1;24,51,10 to Dan Shanks' published in College Mathematics Journal in March 1999. The award recognizes excellence in mathematical exposition.
