Les tribulations de la validation scientifique Ces dernières années, de nombreux résultats scientifiques ont été contredits par des travaux ultérieurs. Qu’en déduire sur la façon de raconter la recherche, sur les évolutions souhaitables… et sur la nature de la science elle-même ?

How does #science decide what is “validated”?
#PeerReview, replication, debate… Scientific knowledge is not a fixed truth but a process. This article explores how results are tested, challenged & sometimes overturned. Doubt is part of science.

Student gets revenge on slacker lab partner by using the scientific method to document their laziness: ‘[I] started being methodical’ "He'd show up for the write-up days when we had to submit work, add his name to everything, and disappear again."

Is there still room for hypothetical ideas and simple experiments in modern research? :: BioResources Scientific progress has never been driven solely by perfect data or bullet-proof methods. Rather, it has been propelled by imagination—by researchers’ willingness to observe the world and ask, “What…

Our latest #editorial by Björn Sjöstrand discusses experimental simplicity.

Really the best way to test it is to launch 11,000 of these all at once and see what happens. #ScientificMethod #AI

The Scientific Method is a process for acquiring new knowledge over time that identifies and evaluates untested biases and assumptions. It should be explicitly taught to all students.

How Eratosthenes measured the earth. Part 1 An accurate version of the story of how Eratosthenes measured the earth. Part 1: the discovery of the earth's shape.

further down this rabbit-hole, 4 posts from 2023:
Eratosthenes’ measurement, albeit high (imprecise), nonetheless "remained the most accurate measurement of the earth’s size until the modern era."

Springer Nature retracts, removes nearly 40 publications The dataset contains images of children’s faces downloaded from websites about autism, which sparked concerns at Springer Nature about consent and reliability.

Let's be clear, "Autism is a complex, heterogeneous condition, and the gold standard for diagnosis relies on clinical assessment of behavioral traits."

You can't "prove" anything with the #ScientificMethod, you can only disprove things and get closer to the truth.

The case of the fake references in an ethics journal Many would-be whistleblowers write to us about papers with nonexistent references, possibly hallucinated by artificial intelligence. One reader recently alerted us to fake references in … an ethics…

Writing papers that use AI hallucinations for citations is, as the whistleblower said, "scientific misconduct." Ironic when it's from a journal about ethics, and a paper about whistleblowing!
