Honestly, I don’t know if I’m with @daniela_witten or @NAChristakis.
1) Paper makes bombastic conclusions that are unjustified by data.
2) Point 1 holds for other papers in area BUT their conclusions are not as harmful
3) Is retraction of one paper easy out for @NatureComms?https://twitter.com/daniela_witten/status/1329663766993072129 …

Hi
@AnimaAnandkumar - I completely agree with you the paper is both both unsound and harmful. It was a mistake to publish it. Women in science face enough barriers as it is! Question is what is the best way to mitigate the harm that was done, and I really don’t know the answer. -
I think the best course of action is retraction with detailed explanation of the deep flaws in the paper and the way this paper was reviewed.
