It seems that there also needs to be legislation that if a student goes to a school official (or employee of any kind) and claims to have been sexually assaulted, the employee needs to be obligated to contact law enforcement.

Psychiatrists with reading habits aren't medicinal chemists or pharmacologists.

I'm not trying to start an argument here, but wouldn't "assuming what they should be proving" be the same as "hypothesizing?" That's a critical point of the scientific method. You don't really design experiments that can both confirm and refute a theory. When an "open-minded" scientist attempts to perform an experiment to test theory, they aren't personally responsible for subsequent theories and experiments that could disprove their results.

It's things like this that point out that the author a) can't write effectively and b) doesn't know anything about pharmacology/medicinal chemistry. Why are people going nuts about an article written about a very advanced subject that's written by a non-expert?
