Personally, any “Science” that comes from UCDavis is usually bought and paid for, can;t prove it JMHO.

Our science community is so corrupted by money and preset conclusions for these studies that I don’t believe anything anymore. That’s just me.

When I find complete, original articles, I'll write FReebie after the link. Sources of funding and possible conflicts of interest are routinely disclosed, or there could be hell to pay with respect to professional careers.

I earned my PhD at UC Davis, and consider myself extremely fortunate to have been accepted as a student there. UC Davis is one of the top research universities in the world.

What do you mean, "bought and paid for"? My funding came from a variety of sources: National Institutes of Environmental Health, Superfund, California Agricultural Research Station, some private fellowships from individual donors and biotech companies. In no case was I ever told that I needed to produce certain results or lose funding. Scientists cannot produce specific results on demand--science doesn't work that way.
