Correcting the “self-correcting” mythos of science

In standard characterizations, science is self-correcting. Scientists examine each other’s work skeptically, try to replicate important discoveries, and thereby expose latent errors. Thus, while science is tentative, it also seems to have a system for correcting whatever mistakes arise. It powerfully explains and justifies the authority of science. Self-correction thus often serves emblematical...

Correcting the scientific record.

This month we are publishing a retraction of a paper by Won et al. entitled “Small molecule–based reversible reprogramming of cellular lifespan.” The Letter, which appeared in our July 2006 issue (Nat. Chem. Biol. 2, 369–374, 2006), described the discovery by high-throughput screening of CGK733, a small molecule that was reported to modulate the ‘senescence clock’ in human cells. In the paper, ...

the effect of oxytetracycline on serum calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in cattle

نتایج این مطالعه نشان می دهد که مقدار کلسیم (یونیزه و تام)، منیزیم و فسفر به طور معنی داری تغییر پیدا کرد به جزء مقدار کلسیم تام و منیزیم در روش داخل عضلانی که تغییر معنی داری نداشته است. بر اساس نتایج این مطالعه می توان نتیجه گیری کرد که اکسی تتراساکلین بر روی مقادیر سرمی کلسیم و منیزیم تأثیر می گذارد باید مقدار این کاتیون ها در بیماران، در هنگامی که اکسی تتراسایکلین استفاده می شود مورد توجه ق...

Correcting Contradictions

This paper describes a manual investigation of the contradiction asymmetries of the SICK corpus, which is the intended testing set for a new system for natural language inference. Any system providing conceptual semantics for sentences, so that entailment-contradiction-neutrality relations between sentences can be identified, needs a baseline test set. The investigation of this test set, a part...
