• Resumen

  • Chen talks about statistical logic and careful scrutiny of evidence, which are the weapons that John Ioannidis nimbly wields. His previous targets have included spurious claims about drugs and other medical treatments from clinical trials backed by the pharmaceutical industry. Now his gaze has turned to the brain. Joining a growing army of critics, he has documented serious flaws in the ways that many--if not the vast majority of--neuroscience studies are designed, analyzed and reported.
