AI Detects Fake Cancer Research | Science News

from Science News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Scientists have unleashed an AI detective that’s sniffing out fake cancer research, flagging over 250,000 suspicious papers likely churned out by shady “paper mills” — factories that sell fake studies. The AI, trained on known fraud, spots telltale patterns with 91% accuracy across top journals, especially in molecular biology and high-impact cancers like stomach, liver, and lung. While it’s not a final judge, it’s already helping editors catch garbage before peer review — a vital step to protect patient care and stop bad science from derailing real progress.
