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,[6][7][8][9] and also set up a multi-specialty hospital in rural Andhra Pradesh to showcase affordable and accessible healthcare at a nominal price.[10][11][12]
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.[13] Pulsus was placed on Jeffrey Beall's list of "Potential, possible, or probable" predatory open-access publishers,[14] before the list shut down in 2017.
