Guest guest Posted March 26, 2006 Report Posted March 26, 2006 In today's Times there is an article about the 'scientific' response to the Alternative Medicine programmes on BBC 2 recently. Colquhoun complains and said the BBC was 'peddling quack science'. He goes on to particularly critise the HM programme as mysticism. Aparently the Royal Society is holding a meeting next month when they intent to raise the concerns over the number of degree courses now available in alternative medicine which are 'beginnig to erode intellectual standrads at real universities'! Ernst has also slammed it, even though he was a scientific advisor on the programme - apparently he feels abused by the programme makers. I think this needs a robust response from the Institute, and I will be writing. Perhaps we all should. Quote
