*Geier, singular; the elder Geier is dead but the son (who has no medical or science degree and was fined for practicing medicine w/o a license) was named lead investigator of RFK’s intended autism study.

Huh?

If asking about Geiers: Mark and David Geier are father and son, autism conspiracy theorists who unethically managed to publish a couple shoddy studies that then had to be retracted. They served as their own IRB (internal study review board). Father was an MD but son has no training.

Yes, I learned about them a while ago. Below I'm linking to a rundown of some of their corrupt actions-- including that they and their associates served as their own IRB. (Protocol for human studies must be reviewed by an IRB, so I couldn't understand how their crappy methods were approved.)

And here is the explanation for the retraction of one of their trashy studies, which contains a link to the trashy article itself: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Yow. Way beyond quackery I see. As of any of their work was actually peer reviewed. Analogy - As a Founder/CEO, every single weird email that I get from an unidentified party 👾📨 now gets screened by AI to confirm it is genuine. And I never take cold calls. I call it 'Industrial Fraud'

Yes, the volume of sketchy phishing that goes on across all devices, hourly, increasingly, is unbelievable. The Geiers created a nearly closed system that enabled them to conduct nonsense (not proper studies) which was published in flimsy journals and got huge publicity from the anti-vaxx lobby.

I was relieved that their fraud was identified and punished, years ago now— yet, in this regime, the disgraced and uncredentialed David Geier can apparently be the “lead investigator” of a massive “study.” — Thanks so much for your interest; I hope this is useful information.

PSA This is impolite. There used to be a lot more decorum online. Moderators would dump you off a BB for a post like this. Trust me. Free Advice - Here on bsky doing this once can get you blocked. 🚨🕳️ JDSBOSTON online since 1993

Everyone out there is a product of their mentors. It would be interesting to understand who this doctor studied under and where. Anyone researched him?

Are you talking about Mark Geier? He is no longer living. His son, David, is not an MD and did not study under anyone. Mark Geier attended Columbia; got a PhD and MD from George Washington U. Here's his Wikipedia page (no mention of mentors): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Ge...

That's the point Despite David trying to pass himself off as a doc, "Daddy was a doc" doesn't cut it

LOLOL yep. You should see the official retraction that our friend in NYC just shared on other thread BRB. I mean what do you call 'peer reviewed by me and my kin' 🤔🙄🥱

Paul Rand's "Board certification" The board is HQ'd at his home The Board of directors is his family All because he got mad they instituted "Maintenance of Certification" rules (on-going education and training) and requirements No one bought it and it won't get him hospital privileges, so

You think that stopped 💩’s doctor from falsifying his test results and medical records?
