A great scientist can set a field back 15 years

And a great method can set it back 20.

See also my recently published fmrenology paper: "Why the fuck am I even in science? Neural correlates of evoked existential crises during the reading of bogus fMRI papers in top-tier journals"

Anyway, what better way to start a bitter grad student blog than a study that basically shows that 90% of the conclusions (and 99% of the implications) drawn from an entire line of research are wrong?

Title paraphrased from Ennio Mingolla.
