Concept information

practice unfavorable to open science > predatory conference

Preferred term

predatory conference  

Definition(s)

  • Conferences organised by predatory publishers or by specialised for-profit conference groups. They exploit the pressure on researchers to present their work, especially to international audiences. These conferences are characterised by a similar lack of peer-review of submitted abstracts and papers, may charge high fees with respect to the services provided, and often invite researchers to speak on topics outside their area of expertise; in the case of fake conferences, they do not take place at all.
