What is PubPeer capable of?

Many scientific studies are flawed. Often, the reason is poor methodology. Sometimes, it is outright fraud. The conventional means of correction — a letter to the journal concerned — can take months. But there is now an alternative. PubPeer is a website that lets people comment anonymously on research papers and so, in theory, helps purge the scientific literature of erroneous findings more speedily.

Bankruptcy law provides two fundamentally different ways in which corporations can go bankrupt; liquidation and reorganization. Liquidation happens under Chapter 7 of bankruptcy law; reorganization takes place under Chapter 11. Under Chapter 7, the corporation ceases to exist. All of its assets are sold and the proceeds are distributed strictly according to law. Under Chapter 11, the corporation continues to do business, usually under its current management.
