...Depends on how #statistics is being implemented.
"If you torture the data enough, it will confess to anything." Yet we must often rely on statistical analysis to parse patterns from noisy data and extract meaning from experimental results.
Perhaps the trick is to transform data sparingly.

What would happen if presenting work in person at science conferences, schools, public events, or similar venues replaced citations as the metric for determining a researcher's worth?

I'll critique this study for not considering the #ecological impact of disseminating fugal spores. Sure, it's contact with the spores that kills mosquitoes, but disseminating spores, as proposed, can also seed new #fungus growth in new areas, affecting native organisms.
