Audio from the 2024 Charleston Conference Leadership Interview Series. Heather Staines, Senior Strategy Consultant, Delta Think interviews Ivan Oransky, Co-Founder, Retraction Watch.
Heather and Ivan discuss the founding of Retraction Watch, a nonprofit that publishes daily reports on scientific fraud and misconduct, acting as a watchdog for scientific integrity, and also maintains a retractions database that was recently acquired by Crossref, which makes the data open and provides sustainability. Ivan is the Editor in Chief of The Transmitter, a publication at the Simons Foundation that covers neuroscience for neuroscientists. He is special advisor for policy and strategy in Scientific Publishing and for funding the archive initiatives at the Simons Foundation. For over 20 years, Ivan has taught medical journalism at New York University. He believes librarians play a critical role in supporting research and publishing and have been instrumental in supporting Retractions Watch’s mission.
