The University of Liège's Open Science Day, held on 7 November, brought together more than eighty participants to discuss innovative initiatives promoting the opening up of science to all. The event highlighted ULiège's commitments and the diversity of projects undertaken by its community, reflecting the impact of open science on research, education and society.
Last December, an article in Nature magazine announced that, in 2023 alone, 10,000 articles had been withdrawn from several scientific journals due to fraud. This figure is just the tip of the “Fake Science” iceberg.
The proliferation of questionable, if not fraudulent, articles calls into question the very relevance of the prevailing economic models for disseminating research.
€493,935 were paid by researchers in 2023 as APC (Article Processing Charges), an average of €2,297 per article! This represents an increase of 12.8% compared with 2022. Colossal sums lost for scientific research. However, solutions do exist to bring the bill down.
