Via the NY Time’s obituary of the impressive Rosalyn S. Yalow, Nobel-winning medical physicist:
Initially, new ideas are rejected. Later they become dogma, if you’re right. And if you’re really lucky you can publish your rejections as part of your Nobel presentation.
Me, I didn’t have Rosalyn’s fortitude (or smarts apparently). I became a math major after a physics professor dinged me for missing 1 problem on a homework assignment (“you know you’re working on a D average”).
Weight Maven is written by Beth Mazur. Beth believes that obesity is more symptom than cause and that the real problem is our Western diet -- especially sugar, refined grains, and industrial oils. Beth writes about nutrition, ancestral health, & food policy. And cats!
