when i was a grad student in an amyloid lab (2009-ish) we were already doubting the amyloid hypothesis. Not so much the PIs. It's kind of wierd to see these ideas finally catching hold today. But when the grant money is coming in, you're gonna push your hypothesis hard. That said, IMO we really don't know. I worked on figuring out how to make these experiments more reproducible. My paper is cited a TON, but whenever I peek into the field, people are still are using shitty techniques, even the papers citing me.... Feels like "you didn't read the paper, did you?".
