The author reflects on the pitfalls on the massive amounts of data on the genome studies of biologists. The author states that scientists are making many careless errors such as the high number of corrections on the research paper on life sciences. The author also mentions that the scientific errors are driven by the pressure of generating surprising results and quick publishing. Moreover, the importance of training on experimental method and collaboration with good statisticians is recommended.
