Scientific Reproducibility Salon - are false allegations a problem?

​L​et's meet again on Monday February 9, 2026 at 7pm!​

​Topic for the night: examples of fabricated allegations about s​cience that ​turns out to be right!

​Is this a ​big problem ​or is ​i​t a myth, invented by unreliable researchers to cast shade on critics?

Are there incentives (other than political) to falsely accuse someone else? ​

Could false allegations become a bigger problem in the future?

Please come with examples​!

We'll meet again at the house at 7 Kingston Street in Somerville, MA.
