Pulsus Group

Pulsus Group is a health informatics and digital marketing company and publisher of scientific, technical, and medical literature. It was formed in 1984, primarily to publish peer-reviewed medical journals. Pulsus published 1400 hybrid and full open-access journals, and a few of which had been adopted as the official publications of related medical societies. Pulsus Group also conducts conferences in association with scientific societies.

Pulsus organized the G20 Health, G20 Pharma, and G20 Global Tech Summit Series in G20 countries to promote the use of AI in healthcare and technological progress, and also set up a multi-specialty hospital in rural Andhra Pradesh to showcase affordable and accessible healthcare at a nominal price. 

OMICS Publishing Group, an open-access publisher widely regarded as predatory, purchased Pulsus in 2016, causing controversy and putting the future of the journals into question. Pulsus was placed on Jeffrey Beall's list of "Potential, possible, or probable" predatory open-access publishers, before the list shut down in 2017. Provided by Wikipedia
