“I hope that Dr. Tessier-Lavigne will not brush off these concerns as irrelevant. There appear to be a lot of visible errors in these papers, and some duplications are suggestive [of] an intention to mislead,” @MicrobiomDigest

The @StanfordDaily reached out to Science and @Nature, where another of Tessier-Lavigne’s papers containing alleged data alteration was published, for comment. @ScienceMagazine's editor-in-chief @hholdenthorp wrote in an email that he would “check around.”
Marc Tessier-Lavigne’s papers with issues confirmed by the University have accrued tens of thousands of downloads and include some of his most cited work in neurobiology. None of the papers has been retracted or corrected @tab_delete @StanfordDaily #scipol

Two cognitive biases that make it hard to do science well
-Confirmation bias: selective attention/memory
-Failure to understand probability

In response to what is referred to by some as the Reproducibility Crisis, the psychology community has been trialling various Open and Reproducible Science solutions. These initiatives are relatively new concepts to broader neuroscience @BritishNeuro

If witnesses to harassment, members of investigative committees, journal editors, and individuals at every level of the scientific community all leverage their knowledge & power to combat bullying, we can create a safer & more civil #scientific environment

Evidence showing ligands & receptors to be variable and discerning instigators of signals, and translators of information, respectively, have illustrated the fallacy of assuming that the surrogate host cell is an inert vessel-Terry Kenakin @NatRevDrugDisc

Stepping back from the rather safe HTS paradigm to discovery in virtual space which is still not yet fully developed, certainly needs courageous management decisions not only in terms of financial investments, but also in organizational evolution @Aalanine

First session this morning at #ISHPSSB19: an interesting discussion, moderated by Karen Kastenhofer & @nikivermeulen on engagement of (social) scientists with systems biology and the interplay between funding and research priorities.
Recent waves of scientific fashions have driven funding priorities from systems biology to synthetic biology and now to AI-based approaches. This trend points away from understanding living systems to control and prediction without understanding. /1
There is also a recent trend to integrate responsible research and innovation #RRI research into scientific projects. Is this a good thing? /2
Are you a #scientist trying to write up your #publicengagement or #rri work for publication? Some thoughts (a thread)
Most of the papers I review are either incredibly dense with theory and mathematical jargon, or treated as a chance to show off about a fun thing you did. I'd like to make the case that something in between these is needed.
When papers are swamped in technical language, it can give the impression that the writer has quite a limited point of view on what is publishable and possibly is uncertain of the validity of the approach they took.
