Continua la saga giudiziaria del chirurgo Paolo Macchiarini, intervistato da Retraction Watch<\/a> dopo la ritrattazione di un suo paper del 2014 su Nature Communications<\/em>. RW ha intervistato<\/strong><\/a> anche\u00a0Karl-Henrik Grinnemo, il whistleblower dell’Istituto Karolinska che racconta le ritorsioni subite per tre anni finch\u00e9<\/p>\n

In the beginning of 2016, Swedish Television\u00a0aired a series of documentaries<\/a>\u00a0that\u00a0raised new concerns<\/a>\u00a0about Macchiarini\u2019s work. That changed everything. KI\u00a0ordered a new investigation<\/a>,\u00a0Macchiarini was dismissed<\/a>, and the\u00a0vice chancellor resigned<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Secondo me, ha contribuito anche l’inchiesta di Vanity Fair<\/em> sulla produttrice televisiva sedotta e abbandonata da un bugiardo quasi patologico. Da quel momento \u00e8 diventato impossibile credere sulla parola a Macchiarini e ai direttori del Karolinska, i sedotti che poi lo hanno abbandonato.<\/p>\n

Aggiornamenti<\/a> anche di Leonid Schneider, querelato<\/a><\/strong> per diffamazione da tre collaboratori tedeschi di Macchiarini: Heike e\u00a0Thorsten Walles, e Philipp Jungebluth:<\/p>\n

I was denied information everywhere,<\/p>\n

scrive Schneider delle istituzioni tedesche che dovrebbero garantire l’integrit\u00e0 della ricerca, la trasparenza ecc. Fanno muro, come il Karolinska per un paio d’anni, e nel frattempo le sue spese legali aumentano. (In un contesto pi\u00f9 comico, crescono anche quelle di Andrea Rossi e dei suoi investitori, ma almeno la platea pu\u00f2 godersi i risultati del “discovery process”…).<\/p>\n

David Smith del Guardian<\/em> riassume bene la d\u00e9b\u00e2cle\u00a0del decreto Trumpcare, mi sembra, dovuta all’alleanza tra i repubblicani iperliberisti del Tea Party (il Freedom Caucus della Camera) secondo i quali il decreto non era abbastanza punitivo per le donne e i poveri, e i rari moderati che lo ritenevano troppo sfacciatamente a favore degli uomini sani, bianchi e ricchi. D’altronde:<\/p>\n

Healthcare reform is to American presidents what the Russian winter was to Napoleon. Obama got further than most but even then the notion of an American National Health Service remained a distant dream.<\/p>\n

La strategia della Neolingua.<\/strong>
\nMichael Mann rappresenter\u00e0 il 97% della propria comunit\u00e0 davanti alla Commissione scienza della Camera<\/a>.\u00a0Il suo presidente Lamar Smith ha spiegato quello che intende fare ai disinformatori (Christopher Monckton, the potty peer, compreso!) invitati a Washington dallo Heartland Institute a spese di BigOil & Coal, scrive Jeffrey Mervis<\/a> su Science<\/em><\/p>\n

The audience cheered loudly as Smith read the names of three witnesses\u2014climate scientist Judith Curry, who recently retired from the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta; policy specialist Roger Pielke, Jr. of the University of Colorado in Boulder; and John Christy, a professor of earth system science at the University of Alabama in Huntsville\u2014he expects to support his view that climate change is a politically driven fabrication and that taking steps to mitigate its impact will harm the U.S. economy.<\/p>\n

Then boos filled the ballroom of the Grand Hyatt hotel in downtown Washington, D.C., after Smith mentioned the fourth witness\u2014Michael Mann, a climate researcher at Pennsylvania State University in State College and a frequent target of climate change doubters. \u201cThat\u2019s why this hearing is going to be so much fun,\u201d Smith said with a huge grin on his normally impassive face.<\/p>\n

Pat Michaels (climatologo da quando?) ha suggerito a Smith di non usare “scienze del clima”, ma “studi del clima” e di non chiamare gli studiosi<\/p>\n

“scientists\u201d because they have manipulated their data and ignored contrary results. \u201cBut I also urge you to use the term politically correct science.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGood point,\u201d Smith replied. \u201cAnd I\u2019ll start using those words if you\u2019ll start using two words for me. The first is never, ever use the word progressive. Instead, use the word liberal. The second is never use the word ‘mainstream’ media, because they aren\u2019t. Use ‘liberal’ media. Is that a deal?\u201d<\/p>\n

Greeted with a rousing ovation, Smith kept going. \u201cI\u2019ll give you a bonus. When we talk about changing the Senate rules on ending filibusters, don\u2019t use the word \u2018nuclear\u2019 option. That has a negative connotation. Use \u2018democratic\u2019 option.\u201d<\/p>\n

he expressed support for writing legislation that would punish scientific journals<\/strong> that publish research that doesn\u2019t fit standards of peer review crafted by Smith and the committee…<\/p>\n

Quando ho letto l’articolo, ho pensato che la Commissione avrebbe emesso un comunicato per dire che Smith \u00e8 stato frainteso. Ancora niente<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
