I would not blindly trust those people either, if they are human they are corruptible as well.

Looking at certain 'scientific background' people they act just like politicians, if you take the time to look into them and their activities.

I am just saying to be criticial and do not treat them like celebrity worship status, because I have done that mistake with politicians as well.

We must stay criticial of people in power and with money/influence.

Science IS political, at all levels. You can't compete without funding and your institutions will pressure you to perform a certain way.

Sadly, I agree. Scientific background does not a good person make. It's just mostly (not always) required to solve problems of this level of complexity.

I'm mostly concerned because of no independent ethical committee oversight which is standard in breaking ground on new research and procedures and is widely practiced in medicine and psychology that I know of. I can't know if this is a fraud, it's not my field, but the lack of any public information on their groundbreaking procedure based in science is also quite concerning.

This article is basically promotional material.
