In “ A Black Hole at the Center of Earth Plays the Role of the Biggest System of Telecommunication for Connecting DNAs, Dark DNAs and Molecules of Water on 4+N- Dimensional Manifold,” published last year in the Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences, 13 listed authors from wildly different fields throw together a series of escalating falsehoods. Expert responses to the report are funny, but the research represents some key items of interest in science publishing and academia more broadly. Scientists have uncovered a bizarre, indefensible paper that squeaked through peer review at what appears at first pass to be a legitimate medical journal. ![]() It all started when scientists found a black hole at the center of the Earth.Peer review is complicated, and isn't the same as fact checking or analysis-but this is wild.A ridiculous scientific paper could show one journal's failure to review, and could even be generated by A.I.
