Judea Pearl, quoted in Pearl and Mackenzie (2008), stated that “once we have understood why [randomized controlled trials] RCTs work, there is no need to put them on a pedestal and treat them as the gold standard of causal analysis, which all other methods should emulate.” In Aronow et al. (2024), this claim is refuted, drawing on results of Robins and Ritov (1997). The

This website uses cookies to ensure you get the best experience on our website. Without cookies your experience may not be seamless. Credit for scientific discovery plays a central role in the reward structure of science. As the “currency of the realm,” it powerfully influences the norms and institutional practices of the research ecosystem. Though most scientists enter the field for reasons other than desiring credit, once in the field they desire credit for their work. In addition to being a source of

Wonderful recognition by @LaskerFDN of Habener, Knudsen and Mojsov for roles in disc and devel of GLP-1 drugs. Is it surprising that other prestigious bodies cited other scientists? My 2019 article on credit for scientific discovery explains why it isn't. https://t.co/J3Hkg4oY9S https://t.co/rOHzqP9FoD

Abstract The research program Spit For Science was launched at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) in 2011.

I argue, however, that the…

Garson (2023) offers an engaging historical and philosophical discussion around the importance Late Modern thinkers assigned to the task of differentiating madness from idiocy (or more specifically, to the tripartite distinction of sanity, madness, and idiocy). Based on this analysis, Garson’s identifies the need to offer a positive account of mental illness—one that does not define the essence…
