i don’t want to know about each test that didn’t work as a separate publication, that’s for sure!

- carlmr 5y agoThat's true, we would need a way to collect this data so it's easily seen as part of a whole. E.g. if you search for eggs and cholesterol you should find all studies with their summarized results on whether eggs are ok or not for your cholesterol, grouped by researcher, so if somebody does 200 studies to find the one positive it's instantly visible.
