Lack of proper incentives, poor data collection and sharing, unreliable peer review systems, and failed process integrity in scientific research are leading to questionable scientific results.
Certain scientific subjects have grown exceedingly complex over the past several decades, with a bewildering tangle of specializations and divided labor. As a result, it is increasingly difficult to assess claims about their predictive power. Outsiders of these fields are left with overly crude or outdated methods for evaluating scientific progress. The result is a general breakdown in scientific communication that damages everyone with an investment in high quality science, including students deciding upon a course of study, peer reviewers, evaluators in scientific funding agencies, and/or general fans of science.
