The amount of sociopathy required to fraudulently derail Alzheimers research worldwide for the sake of your own personal career is mind-boggling. If this is truly what happened here my anger at this individual will be… significant.
Reading the quotes from Ashe reminds me of some of the cops who plant evidence at crime scenes: they’re convinced they’ve already got the right suspect, and manufacturing evidence is just a convenient shortcut for persuading everyone else of their version of the truth.
There was some quote by a Greek philosopher who said that intelligence and knowledge are not safeguards to immorality.
I confused Alzheimer’s with Autism for a minute and was like … haven’t I been on this ride before? Didn’t the paper get retracted ages ago?
🤦♂️ lol
Wow, this is huge. The ripple effect here is going to be massive as there are entire companies founded on this research being true, not to mention research grants and teams working on this exact thing.
The even bigger issue, imo, is how many other researchers have done the same thing and it goes unnoticed?
This is the biggest retraction so far.
Weelll if they base everything on what one person said it’s a huge red flag. Science is based on independent verification. And if the company is half serious it would seek corroboration not only of the article, but also of what they do.
If they didn’t do due diligence they lasted too long already.
Do some research. It’s a huge news story.
