It would be helpful if the academic culture of fraud wasn't allowed to persist as long as it did in important research domains like Alzheimer's https://www.palladiummag.com/2024/08/02/the-academic-culture-of-fraud/

Fraud is pretty much anywhere a human is involved - while I'm outraged and saddened to hear of this, I hope more people learn that no profession or industry is immune to fraud, and that even more learn to "trust but verify" way more often.

Yeah totally with you on human nature. What I'm after more though is that academic science is predicated on "trust but verify" bc of replicability. I was trying to highlight the specific and frustrating lack of accountability in academic settings for when that "trust but verify" turns into "we've found an instance of fraud". Not clear if it's due to saving face, or donors/corporate control, or white man worship, or any number of identifiable reasons. Just frustrating that the academic and scientific fraud, which compounds the misuse funds and wasted replication time, is often times handled with a slap on the wrist.
