Dr. Jacques Benveniste, whose reputation was effectively destroyed following an investigation into his flawed homeopathic experiments, has now accused the scientific establishment of condemning researchers who work outside the mainstream, as heretics. He says that some scientists fear that researchers in other "fringe" areas such as telepathy and other paranormal areas, are being similarly ostracized because their work is not reproducible "conventionally." This seems to imply that the introduction of eye of newt and toe of frog is called for...

I was part of that team. Upon learning of the actual conditions that prevailed, and after attempting a supervised replication, Nature rejected the original findings as untenable.
As expected, Benveniste then said that he'd been the victim of a "witch-hunt," while the Wall Street Journal even unjustly accused Nature of wrecking his career through "arrogance and cruelty." Not so. The attempted replication had not only been agreed to in advance by Benveniste himself, but the protocol was the same as that he'd designed, himself — but with tight randomization and mixing of sample identification (controls and test samples) — and random doubling of samples to test intra- and inter-personnel testing skills.
