Why do we foster and grant wrong innovative scientific methods? The Neuroscientific Challenge

Highlights

  • Scientific Innovators face with several problems because of the novelty of their ideas or related methods

  • We analyse how EU flagship Human Brain Project (HBP) was overestimated as a successful innovative project and, on the other side, how other innovative ways to work on neuroscientific research have led the discipline to important dead-end epistemological results

  • It looks clear that there are several ways to achieve scientific innovation despite of the still dominating linear model

Summary

Introduction

Scientific Innovators face with several problems because of the novelty of their ideas or related methods. We analyse how EU flagship Human Brain Project (HBP) was overestimated as a successful innovative project and, on the other side, how other innovative ways to work on neuroscientific research (fMRI, statistical data analysis) have led the discipline to important dead-end epistemological results. To be innovative is a problem for the researcher who is addressing new results into the academic community.
