Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.



Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Random online scientist here to tell you: this study has deep flaws. Among them, the way it was conducted and its outcomes. This is for various technical reasons you wouldn't really understand.

The contribution to the community is weak. I recommend the authors to work on their study design and to basically redo everything in good.
