The amount of sociopathy required to fraudulently derail Alzheimers research worldwide for the sake of your own personal career is mind-boggling. If this is truly what happened here my anger at this individual will be... significant.

I confused Alzheimer's with Autism for a minute and was like ... haven't I been on this ride before? Didn't the paper get retracted ages ago?

🤦‍♂️ lol

Reading the quotes from Ashe reminds me of some of the cops who plant evidence at crime scenes: they’re convinced they’ve already got the right suspect, and manufacturing evidence is just a convenient shortcut for persuading everyone else of their version of the truth.

There was some quote by a Greek philosopher who said that intelligence and knowledge are not safeguards to immorality.
