Oh yeah, scientific journals are the wellspring of new ideas ...
One big reason: He is on the trail of a drug that absorbs his culprits - the
excess copper and zinc - and dissolves the protein clumps in the brains of
experimental animals. Bush has found a potential Alzheimer's treatment in a
70-year-old dysentery drug with a history of toxic side effects. What's
more, he and his colleagues this month published their first human clinical
trial showing the drug's promise. "It's like Drano," he says. "It blows them
away."
The small trial's results are "significant" and "innovative," says Roger
Rosenberg, a neurologist at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical
Center and editor of the Archives of Neurology, which published the
research.
Bush's odyssey shows how rejects in the world of science can sometimes
re-emerge as important figures. The history of science in the last 50 years
could be written with papers rejected by prestigious journals, observed Paul
Lauterbur of the University of Illinois after he won the 2003 Nobel Prize
for medicine. His original paper on his prizewinning achievement, magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI), was initially rejected in 1973 by Nature, which
later ran it.
Oh yeah, let's get to the p <.05, that settles everything ... .
My god, if were that easy to get a new idea published. Please read some
history of science.
