About The Webinar<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

All academicians have undoubtedly received invites to publish their papers in some or the other journals. Many of you must have even received invitations to attend or present at various conferences at some point. But do you know that these may be predatory in nature!! Are you aware of the immense threat of phishing activities? They have a tremendous impact on the academic community. As a researcher, your career may be adversely affected if you submit your work to publications or conferences that are predatory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Predatory journals are a threat worldwide. These journals accept articles for publication and may charge authors\u2019 fees, without performing promised quality checks for issues like plagiarism or ethical approval. Even worse, they do not reject poor quality studies. It is often difficult to identify such journals as they misrepresent members of the journal\u2019s editorial board, make deceptive claims of indexing or membership of associations and also about the rigour of peer review. The victims are not just readers; several researchers have been tricked into submitting to predatory journals where their work might be ignored. Likewise, predatory conferences have been on a rise, especially after the pandemic. Pretending to be legitimate scientific conferences, their goal is to profit from registration fees while making no qualitative contributions to the scientific community. Many researchers are duped by their catchy taglines and tempting offerings. Even seasoned researchers have occasionally been exploited by such predatory conferences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
