Technocracy and and fake science

[Mello_]

Fake scientific report was accepted for publication in 157 journals around the world. John Bohannon wrote the paper under the fake name “Ocorrafoo Cobange,” supposedly a biologist at the Wassee Institute of Medicine in Asmara. No such institute or biologist exists. The study was riddled with obvious errors and contradictions that an expert in the field should have caught immediately. Society and  universities without quality control. Peer review works great!
