To put the legacy of their work in the proper perspective, a more
nuanced understanding of problematic scientists is necessary. It is
true that work can be both important and problematic—they can
coexist. Therefore it is necessary to evaluate and critique these
scientists, considering, specifically the value of their work and, at
the same time, their contributions to scientific racism.

First, the so-called normal distribution of statistics assumes that
there are default humans who serve as the standard that the rest of us
can be accurately measured against. The fact that we don’t adequately
take into account differences between experimental and reference group
determinants of risk and resilience, particularly in the health
sciences, has been a hallmark of inadequate scientific methods based
on theoretical underpinnings of a superior subject and an inferior
one. Commenting on COVID and vaccine acceptance in an interview with
PBS NewsHour, recently retired director of the National Institutes of
Health Francis Collins pointed out, “You know, maybe we underinvested
in research on human behavior.”

Second, the application of the scientific method matters: what works
for ants and other nonhuman species is not always relevant for health
and/or human outcomes. For example, the associations of Black people
with poor health outcomes, economic disadvantage and reduced life
expectancy can be explained by structural racism, yet Blackness or
Black culture is frequently cited as the driver of those health
disparities. Ant culture is hierarchal and matriarchal, based on human
understandings of gender. And the descriptions and importance of ant
societies existing as colonies is a component of Wilson’s work that
should have been critiqued. Context matters.

смутно помню, что видел что-то в таком духе ещё раньше и отметил про себя, что надо же чего с любимым журналом из детства случилось, но когда это было не припомню.
