Two major study retractions in one month have left researchers wondering if the peer review process is broken.

Richard Horton does not hold back in his criticism of the UK's response to the pandemic and the medical establishment's part in backing fatal government decisions.

Nations are increasingly making conscious efforts to propel a subset of their universities into the global elite. But are such aspirations ever met? And, if they are, is that a blessing or a curse for those institutions denied entry to the club?

COVID-19 has given the public a newfound sense of the vitality of science. At the same time, policy makers are more than ever leaning on scientific advice to guide the way forward.

Plenty of scientists are resentful of demands to recognise the need for diversity in science.

Ignoring science's legacy of racism or a wider culture shaped by white supremacy doesn't make scientists "objective".

It is easy to make excuses – the legacy of historic racism is so strong that there are not a lot of senior Black scientists to choose from, and those that have survived the gauntlet are in demand and overcommitted, and so on and so forth. But these excuses are lame.

Despite the special calls for research into the novel coronavirus, researchers should all still concentrate on what they do best, writes Matthias Egger, President of the National Research Council of the SNSF.

The now retracted paper halted hydroxychloroquine trials. Studies like this determine how people live or die tomorrow.

Concerns 50 years of progress could be put into reverse unless government intervenes.

Possibly the only thing spreading faster than COVID-19 is the pseudoscience about COVID-19.
