Abstract

This commentary suggests that the ongoing malaise of biomedical research results from adopting a doctrine that is incompatible
with the principles of creative scientific discovery and thus should be treated as a mental rather than somatic disorder. I overview
the progression of the malaise, outline the doctrine and the history of its marriage to science, formulate the diagnosis, justify it by
reviewing the symptoms of the malaise, and suggest how to begin to cure the disease.
