Diagnostics lag is holding back new therapies, says study Advances in therapeutics are outpacing the development of diagnostics due to policy and payment barriers, holding back effective, targeted care.

#Researchers in the US have said that advances in therapeutics are outpacing the development of #diagnostics to guide their use, due to #policygaps and #paymentbarriers around the world.

#EarlyCareer #Researchers

Hijack! A question Cabells is often asked about the coverage of journals in its database products is, ‘How do you find out about them?’ This is not an easy question to answer, as there are so many reasons for a journal to come to our attention, for good or bad – editor recommendation, new launch, author complaints, user feedback, and customer engagement are just some of the ways we are alerted to a journal so we can pass it on to our team of experts to assess.

In our latest blog, we explore how fake #journal sites impersonate legitimate titles - defrauding authors, damaging reputations, and polluting the scholarly record.

How do these scams happen, and what can publishers and #researchers do to protect themselves?
