"Duke officials took a closer look at her work and didn't like what they
saw. Fifteen of her papers, mostly dealing with pulmonary biology, have
now been retracted, with many notices citing "unreliable" data. Several
others have been modified with either partial retractions, expressions
of concern, or corrections. And last month, a U.S. district court
unsealed a whistleblower lawsuit filed by a former colleague of
Potts-Kant."

Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.

reinstitute a culture of scholarly integrity."
