Retraction Watch
Retraction Watch is an online publication dedicated to tracking and reporting retractions in scientific literature. Co-founded in August 2010 by journalists Ivan Oransky and Adam Marcus, the platform has grown significantly since receiving support from the MacArthur Foundation in 2014. This funding facilitated the hiring of additional staff and the establishment of the Center for Scientific Integrity, a non-profit organization that enhances their mission. The core service of Retraction Watch involves monitoring retractions in scientific journals, providing detailed analyses of the reasons behind these retractions, which often highlight issues of misconduct or error in research. They also maintain a comprehensive database cataloging retractions across various scientific fields, which was acquired by CrossRef in 2018. The publication offers daily news and analysis, a newsletter with nearly 6,500 subscribers, and a weekly feature called Weekend Reads that discusses important topics in scientific integrity. Retraction Watch serves a diverse audience, including researchers, journalists, and policymakers, and attracts around 100,000 page views per month.
